Processing Logic

Status Handling

• Active Items: Items that are not blocked in Business Central are considered ACTIVE in Zudello.
• Inactive Items: If an item is blocked in Business Central, it will be marked as INACTIVE in Zudello.

Data Processing

• Incremental Updates: The integration efficiently syncs only items that have been added or changed since the last synchronization.
• Price Handling: The integration captures both the purchase cost and the selling price for each item.
• Description Logic: The primary item description is taken from the displayName field, while an extended description can be sourced from the displayName2 field.
