These scenarios are popular in Dynamics GP Great Plains implementation and modifications.  We would like to offer you Great Plains warehouse management integration highlights

1.       GP Logistics and WM.  Supply Chain Management automation in Great Plains might be too challenging to be formalize for your unique SCM operations requirements, however the first step is to check with Microsoft Business Solutions directly on which route they would recommend, just in case if your WM scenario is already automated.  If you feel that existing solutions do not do the job you should compile your GP customization requirement document, or simply describe your Warehouse Management business processes how you would like to see them implemented in Dynamics GP

2.       Consignments.  It typically gives you relieve to postpone the Inventory ownership until the item is physically sold (where you can book your commission).  Consignment typically has you to work through Accounting scenarios in your Inventory control, Sales Order Processing and especially General Ledger modules.   Normally you do not own consigned goods until the moment of sale, you may have different options of inventory consignments, please check with your vendors

3.       Agent Settlement Report in Great Plains Dynamics GP.  If you are working for IT department in Transportation and Logistics company, Agent Settlement report might be the priority to implement.  In Great Plains you typically base it on Customer Vendor Consolidation module ReportWriter reporting

4.       International Shipping and Receiving.  Here you have Bill of Lading, often associated with Sea and Ocean shipping.  GP can do the job for you, please consider modifying existing Sales Order Processing Invoice, Order or Quotation report.  In some cases BOL might be more complicated and you may decide to call our office directly
