Let’s explore how this tool is built to not only meet requirements but drive your business forward

This blog series dives into the step-by-step process of implementing and optimizing our GMP-compliant quality control module in Business Central.

Let’s begin,

Customer order is received

– In a manufacturing company, company will receive an order from customer. Based on the order and availability of product the user will prepare a Proforma invoice.

Proforma Invoice

– User will create a proforma invoice with all the details of the order and send that invoice for approval internally.

– Once that invoice is approved, the user will convert that proforma invoice into sales order.

Sales order

– Once a sales order is created after approval, user will then plan the production.

– To plan the schedule, we have customised a page, “Planning Schedule”

– The planning schedule has to be prepared from the sales order page. Later the page is accessible with global search as well.

– User will select the item no. on the page and click on “Planning” button on the action bar.

– System will automatically create lines/batches for the sales order quantity.

These batches are created based on the production Bom details in the master.

– When the user is ready to create production orders for the first batch, user will click on the “carry out action” checkbox and the from the action bar click on “Create production order button”

– System will automatically create firm planed production order for the entire batch.

– Now that the firm plan production orders are ready, user can run the Planning (shortage) worksheet

Planning Worksheet

– User will run the planning worksheet to figure out the shortages for the production of Finished goods.

– To get the shortages, user will click on “Calculate regenerative plans” button on the action bar.

A filter page will pop up, enter the date range for the shortages and click on “ok”

– When the lines are generated, user can directly select the lines on the worksheet and create a Purchase indent (It is an internal document used by companies to authorize the requisition of Materials.)

– User can club multiple lines in one purchase indent.
