Mobility for Basic Warehousing in Dynamics 365

Warehouse operations, done swiftly.

A purpose-built mobility solution for Dynamics 365 Basic Warehousing implementations, empowering your teams to run complete warehouse operations, from inbound to outbound, in real time.

Give warehouse workers a modern, guided mobile app without enabling Advanced Warehouse Management or configuring location directives, wave templates and work-generation processes.

Microsoft

Built on the standard D365 Warehouse mobile app framework - secure, stable, future ready and aligned with Microsoft's roadmap.

Swift WMS mobile interface running on Dynamics 365

Designed for real warehouse floors

Built for the customers Advanced WHS left behind.

Microsoft's standard warehouse mobile app requires Advanced Warehouse Management: location directives, work templates, waves and system-driven execution - most operations never needed.

Swift bridges the gap: the productivity of mobile scanning, delivered natively on Basic Warehousing, keeping your business-driven processes exactly as they are.

1

No Advanced WHS required

No waves, no work templates, no warehouse redesign. Your existing processes, mobilised.

2

Native to Dynamics 365

Built on the standard D365 mobile framework with native X++ business logic, security roles and real-time updates.

3

Deploy in days, not months

No custom development, no extra Power Platform licensing, low total cost of ownership.

check_circle

Standard Microsoft frameworks

Built on the Dynamics 365 mobile app and Process Guide frameworks, using supported product patterns.

check_circle

Direct X++ execution

Processes run through native F&O classes, validations, security and transaction logic.

check_circle

No master-data replication

Core warehouse execution does not require exporting master data into an external store.

check_circle

Reduced integration footprint

No API orchestration or synchronisation layer required for the app's core transactional flow.

check_circle

One system of record

Users work against live Dynamics 365 data, reducing latency, duplication and reconciliation effort.

The benefit over Power Apps and other mobile applications

Unlike Power Apps or custom mobile solutions, Swift leverages the standard Warehouse mobile app - lower complexity, reduced total cost of ownership, and seamless alignment with Microsoft's roadmap.

How it works

From scan to confirmed transaction

A streamlined flow keeps work moving while Dynamics 365 remains the system of record.

Architecture comparison

Why an F&O-native mobile app is different

Compare the architectural footprint and operational impact of Swift WMS with Power Apps and independently built mobile applications.

Decision area

Swift WMS — F&O Native

Power Apps-based solution Other native/custom mobile app
Core platform check_circleNative F&O module
Runs inside the standard Warehouse mobile app framework (SysMobile) — no separate app deployment.
◐ Power Platform layer
Canvas/model-driven app connected to F&O via Dataverse virtual tables or Data Integrator.
△ Standalone codebase
Native or cross-platform app (e.g. Xamarin, Flutter) with its own release pipeline.
Business logic check_circleNative X++
Executes through existing F&O classes (e.g. WHSWorkExecute) — the same validation and posting logic as the desktop client.
Split across Power Fx formulas, Power Automate cloud flows and custom connectors calling F&O data entities. ERP rules re-implemented in app code or exposed via bespoke REST/OData endpoints to keep in sync.
Data access check_circleLive transactional data
Reads and writes F&O tables in the same transaction scope — no caching layer, no eventual consistency.
Reads via Dataverse virtual tables or scheduled Data Integrator projects — data can lag behind F&O. Reads/writes through a bespoke API layer and its own local data model, often with offline sync queues.
Master-data staging check_circleZero replication
Items, warehouses, locations and users stay in F&O — nothing exported to a separate store.
May require syncing product, warehouse and worker data into Dataverse tables for offline/canvas scenarios. Typically stages product, location, order and user master data in a separate mobile backend database.
Synchronisation risk check_circleNone for core flow
One live system of record, updated in real time — nothing to reconcile.
Data Integrator or flow sync jobs run on a schedule (e.g. every 15 minutes), creating a stale-data window. Message queues, retries and conflict-resolution logic needed to handle failed or duplicate syncs.
Integration footprint check_circleNo API layer
The app talks to F&O directly through the standard mobile framework — nothing extra to build or monitor.
Custom connectors, Power Automate flows and virtual entity providers to build, test and maintain. API gateway, auth service, middleware and uptime monitoring required for the mobile backend.
Security model check_circleExisting F&O roles
Uses current security roles, duties and privileges — mobile access mirrors desktop access exactly.
Needs Power Platform environment security, DLP policies and Dataverse permissions aligned with F&O roles. Separate identity provider (e.g. Azure AD B2C), token issuance and role-mapping built and secured independently.
Maintenance check_circleOne codebase
Versioned and deployed with your other F&O customisations — no extra Power Platform licensing tier.
Premium per-user Power Apps licensing, plus ongoing flow/connector upkeep as F&O APIs change. Separate app-store release cycles, backend hosting costs and API-contract versioning to manage.
Best fit Basic Warehousing customers who need mobile scanning for PO/TO receiving, counting, picking and transfers — without an Advanced WHS project. Cross-system forms, approvals or lightweight apps that touch F&O alongside other data sources. Offline-first or highly specialised device experiences that must run independently of F&O.

Key advantage: Swift WMS keeps warehouse processing where the data, security and business rules already exist - reducing duplicated logic, integration points, synchronisation overhead and operational support effort.
