EORI and Dynamics Nav

Following BREXIT and the new trade deal with the EU, you need an EORI number to move goods between Great Britain (England, Scotland and Wales) or the Isle of Man, and other countries. You may also need a separate EORI number if you move goods to or from Northern Ireland.

As a business you will need the get the EORI number and display this on all documents used in the export of goods.

For sales related documents (exports) , once you have an EORI number you need to record this number for your company - the most appropriate place would be in the Company Information area of Navision / Navision Attain / Dynamics Nav / Dynamics 365 Business Central.

For purchase related documents (imports), you need to record the EORI number against your supplier details.

Create a new field in the Company Information table and a new field in the Vendor table.

Make changes to various pages in Dynamics Nav for these new fields - so for your Company's EORI add this field to the Company Information page and then all relevant sales related document pages and reports. For vendors' EORI numbers make changes to the vendor card and then all relevant purchase document pages and reports.

So simple changes but across quite a few pages and reports.

Request EORI numbers from relevant vendors.

Then use Rapidstart services in Dynamics Nav / Dynamics 365 Business Central (or dataports for really old versions of Navision or data migration rather than Rapidstart if Rapidstart does not exist in your version of Dynamics Nav) to load in EORI by vendor.

We can make all these changes for you and load in EORI numbers by vendor / supplier. All we need is a full SQL copy (or for older Navision versions the legacy backup) of your live database and confirmation of which documents require the EORI number adding. We can then create data migration tools to load in.

So email us with your requirements.
