Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management

Proposed Solution

Implement native support for Kanban picking within the Cluster picking framework:

1. Add Kanban work order types to supported cluster picking scenarios
2. Enable configuration of Kanban-specific cluster profiles
3. Include Kanban card information in the mobile device workflow
4. Add support for Kanban signals and replenishment triggers within cluster picks
5. Provide visibility of Kanban status and progress within cluster picking operations

Current Limitation

Currently, Cluster picking in D365 Supply Chain Management does not support Kanban picking work order types. This limitation forces organizations to:

• Manage Kanban picking separately from other picking operations
• Lose efficiency by not being able to combine Kanban picks with other order types
• Potentially increase warehouse worker travel time and reduce productivity
• Make compromises between lean manufacturing and efficient distribution practices

Business Value

The integration of Kanban picking with Cluster picking functionality would significantly enhance warehouse operations by:

• Reducing picking time and improving efficiency by combining lean manufacturing principles with multi-order picking
• Streamlining warehouse operations by allowing workers to pick Kanban materials alongside other order types
• Increasing warehouse worker productivity by reducing travel time and consolidating picking tasks
• Supporting lean manufacturing initiatives while maintaining efficient distribution operations

When a Tracking Dimension is setup for serial number tracking, and set as 'Active in sales process', then the 'Blank issue allowed' is checked on automatically and can't be turned off.

Because of this, when using the packing screen, it is possible to use the back arrow and the item is accepted without serial number.

When setting up Tracking Dimension for Serial Number and set it up as 'Active' generally, it is possible to check 'Blank issue allowed' off. Make it possible for the 'Active in in Sales Process' as well.

In some scenario, customer would like to move an invoiced status Container to a new Voyage,

Currently, when trying to delete a Container line with status Invoiced > customer will encounter an error blocking.

Seeking for future feature to be able to move Container with status invoiced to another Voyage.

When we create new planned order type production and we tick the box "recalculate BOM levels" system is creating proposal with the sequence number of the deprecated MRP...

What will be expected is that we get a run of planning optimisation for the specific item we have created the new proposal in order to have all the BOM Lines recalculated and also directly derived proposal created in reqtrans and displayed immediatly in planned order view

Dear Team,

The current functionality of the periodic task "Scheduling jobs" in Dynamics 365 does not retain the same resource for process-type jobs that are in an interrupted or waiting state when the associated setup job has ended. When these jobs are rescheduled, the system may assign a random resource from the resource group if multiple resources are available.

This behavior introduces significant operational challenges in real-world scenarios, as it may require setting up a different machine or physically moving WIP (Work In Progress) stock to another resource—both of which are inefficient and error-prone.

This limitation has been reported by multiple clients, particularly in environments where the route is configured with "Resource Group" as the resource requirement. Addressing this issue would greatly enhance scheduling accuracy and operational continuity.

Regards,

Prashanth T.

We are using the Data Management Framework (DMF) to release products via Excel template uploads. Our requirement is to ensure that the case of the item number in the Released Products entity exactly matches the case of the item number in the Products entity.

For example:

• If a product is defined in the Products entity as ABC123, then it should only be released as ABC123.
• If the Excel upload contains abc123, the system should reject the release, even though the characters match in a case-insensitive comparison.

This is to enforce strict case-sensitive consistency between the product definition and the released product, and to avoid discrepancies caused by case mismatches. We are not requesting changes to the data model or entity relationships. We are simply looking for a way to validate the case of the item number during the release process via DMF.

Need a report that will show accurately the on hand inventory by selected inventory dimension on some date in the past. The inventory value report does not have level of precision needed to know where something was in a specific warehouse unless Location is being tracked financially in the Storage dimension group and it seldom is ever selected.

The Physical Inventory by Inventory dimension provides an allusion that it will provide a retrospective view into where inventory was at but this report does not.

Having a report like this is necessary to provide a complete audit traceability of where product was on a given day.

In Purchase Requisition's line, when we are adding charges before selecting the vendor, the system is not picking the sales tax group on charges. 

No VAT is calculated, and it may happen that invoices (especially of the Reverse Charge type) are posted without a VAT transaction.

Provide the option to create Advanced notes that will print on the Receipts list.

The Warehouse Mobile App Start page should show where is open work, ig. similar as teams or outlook shows unread messages. No need to open all menu items to find out what you need to do.
