design pattern help - how to create a record from another system?

I'm trying to make creating a purchase order for our users easier and want to be able to create PO from another system with the Dimension 1 shortcut we have setup pre-filled

Ideally I'd like to create a page that I'd like to like this

https://MyIntstance/Live/?page=50&dc=0&mode=create&company=12345&Dimension1=abc

What I'm trying to figure out is

- Do I need a custom page to do this or is there a way with AL that I can intercept the current page creation and default the shortcut dimension 1 value and if so what events do I need to override?
- If I need a custom page, can the custom page create a temp record with this set and redirect to it?
- do I need the external system to create a record via web services and set the dimension value and then redirct to open the record in edit mode?

Business Central 17 wave 2 on premise (azure cloud hosted) is what I'm working with.

Thank you
