Augment advance level Supply Chain Management solutions with Microsoft Dynamics 365

Product information is the pillar of supply chain and retail applications across all industries. In the various modules of a business solution, product-specific information and configuration are required to manage the business processes that are related to products, product families, bills of materials, and product categories. Inventory reports show you in a variety of ways how much inventory you have and explain how to be more effective in your inventory investments.

Lean manufacturing is a journey of continuous improvement. The goal is to produce exactly what the customer wants, when the customer wants it, and to do it economically. You can use lean manufacturing in a unified (mixed-mode) manufacturing environment that combines various supply, production, and sourcing strategies. These strategies include production orders, batch orders for process industries, purchase orders, and transfer orders. The lean manufacturing architecture in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management consists of production flows, activities, and Kanban rules.
