This time I will described how assembly orders are posting into the general ledger in Microsoft Dynamics NAV (which is a lot simpler). The assembly orders in Microsoft Dynamics NAV was introduced in the 2013 version and they are a great compliment to the production orders, you can read one of my previous blog posts about assembly vs. production orders to get a feeling about what to use when.
