Insight works has mastered the act of producing project-focused add-ons for Microsoft Dynamics business central apps, with a keen interest in assisting manufacturing, warehouse, and distribution (MWD) companies to scale at large. This focus has helped insight to position itself as an authority in project execution and technology development for MWD companies. There are various devices to use with dynamics 365 Business central apps; however, knowing the right device to use can save your Business a lot of stress. Let’s discuss the different devices you can use with your dynamics 365 Business Central apps.


Apps for Warehouses and Advanced Inventory Counts


Insight works carefully selected apps such as warehouse, WMS Express, and Advance Inventory Count to help users easily scan barcodes to coordinate business operations in a warehouse. The barcode can be scanned using a mobile computing device equipped with a scan engine. Business central is linked to the mobile computer to interact in real-time. Mobile computer manufacturers such as Honeywell, Zebra, and Datalogic produce a variety of devices depending on your specific warehouse needs. Label printers are also important devices to consider. There are a lot of times when
there is a need to affix a barcode label on products. You can find many label printer options with varying prices and features. Amazing features include printing on different label stocks, wireless connectivity, and other features. There are five main factors to consider when choosing a mobile computer.

Apps for Shipping


If you are looking for an App that will help you manage your outgoing shipments with Business central, then Dynamic ship should be top on the list. Devices such as barcode scanners, printers, and scales are most likely to be found around companies that look for package management features. Conventionally, shipping stations have specific locations within a warehouse, limiting the need for a mobile computer as a computer terminal can be easily stationed at the same location.


Apps for Counter Sales


The counter sales app solves almost every point-of-sale solution for expert salespeople selling at the sales counter. Counter sales can run from a fixed terminal. This means that mobile solutions are not required. Devices such as Barcode scanners and receipt printers are key devices found around counter sales locations. Receipt printers can be easily integrated with your computer terminal. Insight Works does not have any specific receipt printer recommendations; however, we can provide options, so please reach out.

Shop Floor Insight solves all Manufacturing Execution System problems. This App allows users or employees to use barcode scanners or touch screens to quickly input shop data input. Whether cord or cordless, a shop floor will need a stand-along fixed terminal or a mobile tablet terminal and a barcode scanner.



The need for selecting the right device and apps that work with Microsoft 365 Business central is very important to ensure your work process is smooth and productive. While this article has streamlined the number of devices according to their warehouse needs, the final decision depends on your specific situation.
