  • Copy sales pool across intercompany chain

    Mon, 14 Nov 2022 11:16:59 GMT – Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management – Needs Votes 

    When delivering to customers through a direct delivery intercompany flow the sales pool is not copied to the sales order in the fulfilment (delivering) company.


    It would be nice if there was a new dedicated "grouping field" that defaulted from the customer and was also copied to the intercompany sales order in this case. Something like "Customer supply group" or "Sales logistics group".

  • Specify quantity per LP during receiving - New Licence plate grouping policy

    Currently, the quantity per license plate has to be specified upfront as a Product unit conversion and added to the Unit sequence group.


    For many projects (I know of 5 customers in my own company) the quantity per LP is unknown at the time of receiving as different vendors may send different packaging formats.


    Here are two real-world examples:

    • Customer has 5kg bags, 20kg bags, 25kg bags of powder sent from different suppliers on different pallet configurations. One LP per pallet.
    • Another customer has 10pcs 12pcs or 15pcs per carton, with cartons on a pallet. Each carton may or may not require a separate LP. (Generally if more than 10 cartons received then a single LP per pallet). The customer also needs to print a label for each carton.


    In both cases it is the warehouse worker that "discovers" the packing format.


    Idea:

    • Add a new (3rd) option named "User specified quantity" to "Licence plate grouping policy". When this option is selected the user will be prompted to enter the quantity per LP.
    • Add a tick-box for all receiving flows named "Request number of labels". When this option is selected the user will be prompted to enter the number of labels per LP.


    We should be able to specify the number of labels to print per LP. This will allow the correct number of labels to be printed for each license plate.


    e.g.

    • 25 cartons of 12 pcs on a pallet
    • User enters 300 pcs / LP
    • User enters 25 labels / LP
