If you outsource fulfillment to one or more third-party logistics (3PL) providers, your real inventory lives in someone else's warehouse — but Business Central still has to quote, sell, reserve, ship and invoice against it. This extension closes that gap inside BC itself, not in a spreadsheet or a separate portal.
ECOSIRE builds, installs and supports this as a per-tenant AL extension on your own Business Central environment (cloud SaaS or on-prem). It is not an instant AppSource download — we scope your 3PL providers and message formats, develop against the real BC objects, and deploy to your sandbox before production.
What it does. It introduces 3PL locations and maps them into standard BC Locations so item availability, reservations and warehouse handling behave natively. Sales-order release pushes outbound fulfillment orders to the 3PL; inbound ASNs and outbound shipment confirmations flow back to post receipts and shipments and update tracking. A scheduled reconciliation job compares BC on-hand against each provider's reported balances and surfaces variances for review.
How it's built. Table and page extensions on Location, Item Ledger and the sales/purchase documents; event subscribers (e.g. on release and post) to trigger messaging; a pluggable connector interface so each 3PL provider has its own implementation behind one contract; the BC job queue for polling and reconciliation; and outbound/inbound exchange over the provider's API, the BC REST/OData surface, or file/EDI where that's all a provider offers. Dedicated permission sets scope who can configure connectors and resolve variances; optional Dataverse / Power Platform surfacing for approvals or dashboards.
The result is honest, auditable 3PL inventory — owned by your team, maintained by ours.
Owns the relationship with one or more 3PLs and needs BC to reflect what those warehouses actually hold and ship — without chasing portals or spreadsheets to confirm stock and dispatch.
Wants a clean per-tenant extension with proper permission sets, job queue and an auditable message log, installed without destabilizing the production tenant or blocking BC upgrades.
Relies on accurate on-hand and cost postings; values the scheduled reconciliation and variance worklist that catch discrepancies between BC and 3PL balances before they hit the books.

No — this is build-to-order. ECOSIRE develops it as a per-tenant AL extension for your specific 3PL providers and message formats, then installs it to your sandbox for validation before production. Typical delivery is roughly 3–6 weeks depending on how many 3PLs you connect and whether each exposes a modern API or only file/EDI exchange. We confirm a firm timeline after a short scoping call.
ECOSIRE supports it. The included warranty/support window covers bug fixes and keeping the extension compatible across Business Central's monthly and major releases — we test against your sandbox ahead of upgrades. Because it's a clean per-tenant extension using event subscribers and table/page extensions (no base-app modification), it upgrades like any well-behaved AL app. You also receive the source, so you're never locked in.
Yes. The connector is a pluggable AL interface, so each provider has its own implementation behind one contract. You can run several 3PLs concurrently, each mapped to its own BC location with independent messaging, SKU mapping and reconciliation schedule.
That's common. The connector contract supports API/REST/OData where available and falls back to scheduled file or EDI exchange (e.g. CSV/XML drops or SFTP) where a provider only offers batch integration. Either way the job queue handles polling, retry and reconciliation so the integration behaves consistently.
Minimally and intentionally. Sales and purchase documents stay native — 3PL locations behave like standard BC locations, and fulfillment is triggered on the actions you already use (like order release). The new surfaces are mostly for admins: connector setup, the message log, and the variance worklist, all gated behind dedicated permission sets.
