Dynamics 365 for distributors
Dynamics 365 document automation for distributors
DynamoDocs captures the bulk customer POs with many SKUs, supplier invoices to match against receipts, and drop-ship orders that distributors deal with every day, reads them with AI, validates every field, and posts them into Dynamics 365. Your team reviews the exceptions instead of retyping each one.

The short version
DynamoDocs automates Dynamics 365 document entry for distributors. For distributors, bulk customer POs with many SKUs and supplier invoices that must match receipts arrive nonstop and get keyed line by line before anything ships. DynamoDocs captures each document, AI reads and classifies it, codes it to SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse, validates it, and posts approved records into Dynamics 365 through the Dynamics 365 REST/OData API, so orders ship on time and supplier bills reconcile against receipts. Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain powers finance and operations for mid-market and enterprise organizations.
The mapping
How Distribution & Wholesale paperwork posts into Dynamics 365
Each document is coded to SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse and posted into Dynamics 365 as the right native record. Nothing gets dropped into a CSV to clean up later.
| What distributors send | Where it lands in Dynamics 365 |
|---|---|
| Bulk customer PO with many SKUs and unit-of-measure quirks | a purchase or sales order, coded to SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse |
| Supplier invoice that must match a receipt and PO | a vendor invoice, coded to SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse |
| Drop-ship PO routed straight to a vendor | a purchase or sales order, coded to SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse |
| EDI 850 from a partner, or a PDF PO from everyone else | a purchase or sales order, coded to SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse |
| Freight bill coded across cost centers | a vendor invoice, coded to SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse |
| Made-to-order RFQ or request for pricing | a sales quotation in Dynamics 365 |
A worked example
Dynamics 365 for distributors, from inbox to posted record
Imagine a wholesale distributor running Dynamics 365 that receives a 60-line bulk purchase order from a grocery chain, every line uses the customer's SKU, not yours. DynamoDocs picks it up from the monitored inbox (or a drag-and-drop upload), and AI reads every field and line, no template required. It is coded to SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse from your rules and vendor or customer history, then validated against totals, required fields, and your own checks. Anything that fails is flagged field-by-field for a quick review; everything clean posts straight into Dynamics 365 as a vendor invoice through the Dynamics 365 REST/OData API. Connects through the Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain OData API. Your distribution & wholesale team reviews the occasional exception instead of retyping the whole document, so orders ship on time and supplier bills reconcile against receipts.

Dynamics 365 for Distribution & Wholesale FAQ
How does DynamoDocs handle distribution & wholesale documents on Dynamics 365?
For distributors, bulk customer POs with many SKUs and supplier invoices that must match receipts arrive nonstop and get keyed line by line before anything ships. DynamoDocs captures each of those documents from a monitored mailbox or upload, reads every field with AI (no per-vendor template), codes it to the right SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse, and posts it into Dynamics 365 through the Dynamics 365 REST/OData API. Connects through the Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain OData API. Clean documents post automatically; only exceptions reach a person, so orders ship on time and supplier bills reconcile against receipts.
How does a bulk customer po with many skus and unit-of-measure quirks post into Dynamics 365?
It becomes a purchase or sales order in Dynamics 365, coded to the right SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse, with header and line-item fields validated before anything posts. Posts vendor invoices, sales orders, and sales quotations. A visual field-mapping engine shapes the record into exactly what Dynamics 365 expects, so nothing is retyped and nothing posts half-filled.
Can it keep our Dynamics 365 coding right for distribution & wholesale?
Yes, that is the point. Each document is coded to the right SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse from your rules and vendor or customer history, so records arrive in Dynamics 365 already coded instead of waiting on a clerk. Anything that fails a rule is flagged field-by-field for a quick fix, which keeps Dynamics 365 clean and orders ship on time and supplier bills reconcile against receipts.
How do purchase orders and RFQs from distributors post into Dynamics 365?
Purchase orders become a purchase or sales order and RFQs become a sales quotation in Dynamics 365, with every line, bulk customer POs with many SKUs included, read and validated first. Maps to your legal entity, financial dimensions, and item numbers.
How much time and money does this save distributors on Dynamics 365?
Keying one document into Dynamics 365 typically takes 5–10 minutes and costs $2–$6 in labor, before the cost of fixing mis-coded SKU, unit of measure, and warehouse. DynamoDocs does it in seconds and only flags exceptions, which commonly cuts document-handling labor by 80–95% while orders ship on time and supplier bills reconcile against receipts.
