  • Formula/BOM lines "Planning group" to work with different proportion or UOM alternate items, than main priority item

    When creating a Planning group for the items in the formula/bom lines, it can only be done for items that can replace the main priority item with the same quantity and unit of measure.

    I have seen many cases where this substitution is required but the alternative items must be consumed in different proportion and/or unit of measure in the process industry.

    I would like to see that this process (Planning group) considers proper conversion factors between the UOM of the formula/BOM line and the inventory UOM.

    IE

    Cinnamos rolls are produced using a mix of chocolate and vanilla cakes (semi finished items), but the crumb that is obtained when manufacturing those cakes (by/co-product) can be also used, and the crumb (if there is inventory available) should be the first option to produce cinnamon rolls.

    The crumb is stored in Kg (main priority in the planning group), but the Cakes are stored in Ea (second priority) but each cake item has its own conversion factor from Ea to Kg.

    Modeling this in Dynamics, it considers the quantity required in the inventory UOM rather converting the Kg stated in the formula to the appropiate quantity of cakes.

  • Correct Spanish translation: "Multiple" field for Purchase order, Inventory and Sales order

    The appropiate general Spanish translation for the "Multiple" (en-us) field for Purchase order, Inventory and Sales order in the Default order settings form, from the Released products option in the Product information management module, must be "Múltiplos"


    The word "Varias" which has been in Dynamics since I can remember is not correct, and doesn't mean what it is intended for, for the users.


    This field is found in the InventItemPurchSetup, InventItemInventSetup and InventItemInventSetup tables as "MultipleQty"

  • Correct Spanish translation: "Purchase time" field for Lead time tab for the Item Coverage settings

    The appropiate general Spanish translation for the "Purchase time" (en-us) field to establish the Lead time for the purchase process in the Item coverage form, in the Plan section, from the Released products option in the Product information management module, must be "Tiempo de compra"


    The translation "Hora de compra" which has been in Dynamics since I can remember is not correct, the word "Hora" in spanish refers specifically to the lapse of time conformed by 60 minutes. Additionally, it is not consistent with the other two translations in the same place for "Tiempo de producción" and "Tiempo de transferencia" which are correct.


    This field is found in the ReqItemTable table as "LeadTimePurchase"

  • Correct Spanish (latin america) translation: "Route number" field for Route assignment of a production order

    The translation in "es" (Spain) languaje is correct, but for some of other spanish languajes as "es-mx" it is not correct.


    This field is found in Production/Batch order form, Setup section, under the Route group as "Route number". In many "es-*" is correctly translated as "Número de ruta", but in some others as "es-mx" it is translated as "Número de ruta bancario", the last word -bancario- refers to a banking institution which has nothing to do with the production control module.


    The "es" (Spain) translation is correct, but must be the same for every other "es-*" languaje.


    This field is found in the ProdTable table as "RouteId"
