There are some major inconsistencies between production order processes and purchase and transfer order processes within D365 F&O. Primarily, a production order can only contain an order line for a single SKU whereas the purchase and transfer orders can contain many SKUs. Production orders also do not have the capability to define ASNs and have no relationship to inbound loads when trying to set up receiving via WMS. This severely limits flexibility of the system when trying to design solutions for the production process - especially when the production process involves subcontractor manufacturing. If a subcontractor is creating finished goods for a company and is shipping them back to a distribution center to fulfill customer orders, it can be very advantageous to have ASN information to assist with the receiving and putaway process. The ability to define ASN records via the inbound load packing structure, along with the ability to have multiple SKUs on a single production order, would align the production receiving process with the current purchase or transfer order receiving process. With these configurations, the system would be able to handle the receipt of multiple SKUs on a single license plate/pallet all with a single scan, rather than having to RAF and receive in each individual SKU as part of a separate production order (as base D365 handles it today). In order for this to happen, some major changes will be needed regarding the location directives for finished goods putaway and the structure of the tables that relate production orders/lines. The existing RAF process for subcontractor production orders is not one that is very user-friendly nor configurable when wanting to handle receiving via WMS and needs to be revised.
