Dynamics 365 Business Central (with industry extensions)
Formulas, versions, batch attributes, and catch‑weight scenarios for weight‑based SKUs.
Power Platform
- Power Apps for batch deviation logging, line‑clearance checklists, and CAPA forms.
- Power Automate for quality holds, electronic sign‑offs, and supplier CoA intake.
- Batch release & CoA: Auto‑generate and route CoA for approval when QC passes.
- Recall readiness: One‑click batch genealogy & customer list for targeted recall.
- Supplier quality: Non‑conformance → 8D CAPA workflow with reminders and escalation.
Use Case: A specialty chemicals maker digitized batch tickets and quality approvals with Power Apps; batch genealogy and SPC in Power BI reduce release cycle time and audit prep effort.
Shorten lead times, boost schedule adherence, and increase OTIF.
Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management
- BOMs & Routings, MPS/MRP, production scheduling, shop‑floor execution, resource & capacity planning, ECN/ECO change control, Asset Management. 3
- WMS + Landed Cost for inbound materials and global sourcing. 4
Dynamics 365 Project Operations (for ETO/CTO)
Quotation to project WBS, cost tracking, change orders tied to engineering updates.
Dynamics 365 Sales
Opportunity → quote → order tied to configurable BOM/variant items.
Power Platform
- Power Apps for in‑process inspections, downtime capture, NCRs.
- Power Automate for ECO approvals, vendor ASN exceptions.
Power BI
Plan vs. actual throughput, schedule adherence, OEE, scrap & rework, supplier OTIF.
Workflow Automation
- ECO/ECN: CAD/PLM change triggers BOM versioning and approval routing.
- Shortage management: MRP exceptions → Teams alerts with suggested substitutes.
- Preventive maintenance: Runtime counters auto‑create work orders before failure.
Use Case: An electronics OEM unifies MRP and shop‑floor reporting; automated ECO workflow and real‑time material exceptions cut expedites and improve promise‑date reliability
