The Preview Posting action helps you avoid mistakes by giving you the chance to review the types of entries that will be created when you post item journals or other inventory documents before you commit the changes to your database.

When you post item journals or other warehouse documents, such as inventory picks and put-aways and warehouse shipments and receipts, you create different types of G/L entries. The following are examples:
- Item entries
- G/L entries
- Value entries
- Warehouse entries
To avoid mistakes upfront, use the Preview Posting action on journals and documents to review the types of entries that you’ll create before you post them.
Set up and sync master data across companies
Business value
Business Central makes it easy to move one company’s setup to another company in the same environment. You can also synchronize master data between the companies.
Feature details
This feature is intended for scenarios in which you want to move the setup in one company to another company in the same environment. It’s also built as a data synchronization engine that lets you keep data in the companies synchronized after the initial move.
The following capabilities are added for managing master data:
- Moving master data works when a company subscribes to data from another company.
- You can define the tables and fields to synchronize. For more control over the synchronization, you can filter on table records. You can also set up more advanced synchronization couplings.
- Changes in the main company are immediately pulled to the receiving companies by the job queue.
- Users in the receiving company can review synchronization logs.
The general availability is April 2023 so stay tuned for more new features!
