ContainerQ gives Business Central a first-class License Plate — a pallet, tote, carton or container you build, pack, move and nest as one unit. Every plate is checked back against Business Central's own ledger, so the label on the goods and the record in the system never drift apart.

On the floor, a pallet moves, ships, and gets counted as a single unit. In standard Business Central there's no object that is that pallet — so its contents live as scattered lines that any ordinary transaction can change without anything tying them back together.
The moment a count, a transfer, or an adjustment touches an item outside the app, a home-grown "container" table quietly falls out of step with reality. Nothing is checking, so nothing looks wrong — until it ships.
A "green" list only proves nothing is checking. Silence is not the same as verified.
Every posting ContainerQ makes is confirmed by an independent second read of Business Central's own records before it's reported complete. If the ledger doesn't agree, the operation doesn't claim success. That single discipline is what keeps a plate honest.
ContainerQ posts through Business Central's own engine — it never writes inventory tables directly and keeps no shadow copy of your stock.
No parallel bookkeepingSuccess means a second read of the ledger confirmed the rows landed — not that no error was thrown. A silent failure can't pass as done.
Confirm, don't assumeA plate's identity is either enforced by Business Central's own tracking, or continuously re-checked against the ledger and flagged the moment it stops matching.
Enforced or re-verifiedCreation, movement, nesting, holds, tracking and labels — not five add-ons from four vendors you have to make agree with each other.
Create a plate and pack items onto it — a pallet of cases, a tote of picks — then handle the whole thing as one unit for the rest of its life.
One instruction moves everything on the plate to a new bin or location, and Business Central's inventory follows in the same breath.
Put totes on a pallet, pallets in a container — many levels deep. A move or a hold on the outer unit reaches everything within it.
Lot, serial and package numbers plus expiration dates are attached the way Business Central actually requires — so tracked goods stay tracked.
Standards-based SSCC-18 identifiers and GS1-128 barcodes a carrier, a 3PL or a trading partner can scan the moment the plate leaves your building.
Place a hold that actually stops nested operations, and read a complete append-only history of everything that ever happened to a plate.
The order matters: nothing is reported done until Business Central's records confirm it. That's the difference between "the app says so" and "the ledger says so."
Walk through it in detail →Give the pallet, tote or carton an identity — an SSCC you can print and scan.
Add items, with their lot / serial / package and expiry attached the way BC requires.
Handle the whole unit at once; nested contents come along, holds are respected.
A second read verifies the rows landed before the operation is ever called complete.
A proprietary container number means nothing the moment goods leave the dock. ContainerQ labels every plate with a GS1 SSCC-18 — the same serial shipping container code carriers, 3PLs and trading partners already scan — encoded in a GS1-128 barcode.

ContainerQ is a complete license-plating product by itself. Already run — or planning to run — BDP WarehouseQ for mobile warehouse operations? The two are designed to sit in the same tenant without stepping on each other.
Everything you need to build, track and ship license plates in Business Central — no other app required.
Container identity is globally unique whoever creates it, so a package moved by one app is recognized by the other — safely co-installed by design.
Lot- and expiry-tracked pallets, FEFO-friendly, ready for GS1 shipping labels.
Standards-based SSCCs that mean something to every carrier and customer downstream.
Build finished-goods plates off the line and keep serial / lot identity intact.
Hold a container and stop everything nested inside it — not just a status flag.
No. Business Central has bins and item tracking, but no single object that is a pallet or container you can build, move and nest as one unit. ContainerQ adds that entity — and, unlike a home-grown table, keeps it reconciled against BC's own ledger.
A custom table is only ever as current as the last time someone remembered to update it. ContainerQ posts through Business Central's own engine and re-reads the ledger to confirm every operation, so the plate can't quietly drift when an ordinary transaction touches the same stock.
Yes — GS1 SSCC-18 identifiers encoded in GS1-128 barcodes, the same standard carriers and trading partners already use. No proprietary numbering scheme.
It does, with expiration dates, attached the way Business Central requires so tracked goods stay tracked through pack, move and ship.
