Integration for Universal Print and Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management apps

Any update on this? I see it was marked as planned in May 2022 but can’t find any update since then. Universal print is available in Business Central and many clients using Finance & Operations would benefit from this as well. Thank you!

Hi.

It says planned, but can we get a timeline for when it's planned ?

Also interested in updates on this topic. Is there a timeline?

Hello,

What is latest stage of Universal Print and Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management

When is it available in Dynamics 365 F&O?

Hello, I work with a large steel manufacturer in Canada who have listed this as a must-have as it would resolve some recurring connectivity issues for printing . 

Hi Jimmy_Wu Rani_Abdellatif ,

Indeed the way DRA is currently working is not good for the printing of configurable business documents as well.
They are always printed in PDF and when DRA is running as a service, they get put in a separate directory. When running as desktop app, Acrobat reader opens on the print server to be able to print the document.

Indeed not really userfriendly as well.

Invoices need to be printed in different store locations, production documents in different production sites, logistics documents in different warehouses ... .
Most cases where we run into this issue is related to sales, production and/or logistics.

A lot of customers are very disappointed in the behavior of the DRA.
They need to have an external application (--> extra license and support cost) to do their document generation because the DRA can't fulfill their printing needs for the electronic reporting documents.
Or they need extra tools on the print server to automate printing.

So this universal print (if it works as I understand it does) would kind of be the missing link that we need.

Also referring to this Yammer post where we have been requesting this for quite some time now.

Richard Dickinson was also looking into this on the Yammer Thread.

Many thanks!
