Printing documents such as the Sales Order Confirmation currently requires multiple steps, including selecting print destinations and confirming dialog boxes. While Print Management settings allow for some automation, there is no true one-click or automatic direct print functionality available out of the box from the Sales Order form.
Suggested Enhancement:
Introduce a built-in "Direct Print" button on the Sales Order form (and similar forms like Packing Slip or Invoice), which:
- Uses preconfigured Print Management settings
- Sends the report directly to the assigned printer without user intervention
- Supports background printing for performance optimization
- Optionally logs the print action in the document history
This functionality would reduce manual steps, improve warehouse and sales team efficiency, and align D365FO with common ERP expectations in high-volume order processing environments.
Business Impact:
- Saves time in high-volume order processing scenarios
- Reduces user error by standardizing print behavior
- Encourages further automation without the need for custom development or third-party ISVs
