GN Store Nord rolls out an AI agent for pallet and weight calculations

What the company did

Microsoft reports GN Store Nord deploying a Copilot Studio agent with Power Automate for B2B shipment preparation. Before picking, it retrieves order data from Dynamics 365, applies customer packing rules, calculates pallets and shipment weight, and writes the results back for order teams and customers.

How it went

Microsoft says the agent took 200 development hours, compared with a typical 1,200-hour code extension. The rollout was in progress; the account supplies no pallet-calculation accuracy result or proof of completed network-wide adoption.

Worth knowing

  • Customer packing rules and conventional automation surround the agent. The report does not identify which calculations require a model.
  • For your desk: Check the packing-rule version, item dimensions, pallet count and weight units, then reconcile the estimate with the packed shipment before using it for freight booking.
