# Manufacturing and Service Integration

## Manufacturing Integration

Extend the manufacturing functionality of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central by linking resources to machine or work centers for integrated resource planning. Add several project planning lines to one production order. Combine operations in one resource task and transfer production WIP to project WIP.

## Service Integration

The Service Integration integrates Project Control Suite with the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Service module in three ways:

- From projects to service.
- From service to projects.
- Plant maintenance.
