Warehouse Management exercises use a sandbox demo company that you need to set up to complete these exercises. The steps to set up the needed sandbox environment and demo company are documented in the Get started with warehouse management in Dynamics 365 Business Central module of this learning path.

  • Bins: NS001 and NS002

• Zone: PICK

  • Bin Type: PUTPICK
