SvenskaManage third-party logistics warehouses with 3PL Manager
3PL Manager enables you to manage your third-party logistics warehouse locations as part of your sales and purchase processes. This is third-party logistics, abbreviated 3PL or TPL.
 Send Sales Orders and Warehouse Shipments to a third-party warehouse for shipment. | Direct Purchase Orders to an external warehouse and stay in control in your Business Central. |
Let’s go through the process of 3PL in Business Central:
- If the item was in your own warehouse, you would send the picking instruction to a scanner. But when the item is in a third party warehouse, you simply select “Send to 3PL”. This way, you ask your external warehouse to manage this order and ship it to the customer. The functionality in Business Central is identical for both cases – you just have someone else to ship it.
- When the warehouse has shipped your order, your Business Central receives an update, and the Warehouse Shipment (or Inventory Pick or Sales Order depending on your configuration) in Business Central is updated. On the document you can see the 3PL status: ‘Received at warehouse’, and later ‘Shipped’.
- The similar functionality is available for Purchase Orders and Purchase Receipts. When you purchase items, you send the purchase to the 3PL warehouse to let them know. And when the items arrive, your Business Central is notified that the items are received and available.
3PL Manager + specific Connectors for 3PL suppliers
The 3PL Manager app provides the possibility of sending Sales Orders and Purchase Orders to external warehouses – and a Connector allows you to connect with a specific 3PL supplier.
All Connectors are configured inside your Business Central – and the data exchange is executed by Microsoft Power Automate.
Both the Connector-apps and the 3PL Manager app are available on Microsoft AppSource.
This app is part of an extendable structure
Basically, 3PL Manager is the integration app you get, and the connector app adds the specific connection to the 3PL supplier.
The Abakion Foundation Manager includes the common functionality for all the integration apps. This way you can use multiple integration apps without getting duplicate fields and functionality. And the Abakion App Manager is the core extension management and subscription management.
On top of these, you can add the Shipping Manager and 3PL Manager apps. These apps provide integration functionality and APIs. And if you combine these with a connector app, you are ready to go. It’s actually quite simple. If you select a Connector-app from AppSource, you automatically get the necessary fundamental apps. Our installer will handle it all for you.
But this structure also allows you (or your Business Central supplier) to build custom connectors to whichever fullfilment service or 3pl warehouse. You can extend the solution with Power Automate in the Microsoft Power Platform.

Main points about 3PL Manager
Send to 3PL
The function “Send to 3PL” on the Sales, Warehouse and Purchase documents are the only functionality you really need to know. The integration is configured in the back-end, and you don’t need to care about it, unless you are a consultant who wants to set this up on your own.
Configuration of a 3PL-supplier
It is easy to enable a new 3PL-supplier integration in 3PL Manager. If you use a 3PL-supplier we have not encountered previously, we can configure the integration in a few days work.
