Manufacturing in Dynamics 365 Business Central: important Functions and Features
You can plan material requirements directly from a sales or production order or use conventional production and material requirements planning methods. You can compare the estimated demand with the actual values and create your demand forecasts to improve collaboration and planning.
Dynamics 365 Business Central offers functions for both single and batch production. You have the option to switch flexibly between the two production methods.
You can create specific orders and individually control the manufacturing process for each order using the single manufacturing functions. You can also use the batch manufacturing functions to carry out recurring production orders for a specific number of units.
These functions enable seamless integration between warehouse management and manufacturing. In Business Central, you can create stock-related production orders where the system automatically determines the material requirements from stock levels. Automatic orders can be generated for missing materials or manual requisitions can be created to ensure material flow. This function ensures that the existing stock is used efficiently and reduces bottlenecks or excess stock.
You also have the option of creating MTO production orders based on the individual requirements and characteristics of your customers’ orders.
From the production BOMs in Business Central, you can see which individual parts you need to produce a specific item - a distinction is made between raw materials and semi-finished goods. You also have the option of using multi-level production BOMs. These help you to produce complex products that consist of several sub-components.
The subcontracting functions in Business Central also allow you to clearly display orders that you outsource to subcontractors (vendors).
With the help of various planning options, Business Central enables you to quickly realize special orders and “last-minute” changes in order to adapt to the dynamic requirements of your customers.
