Summary

Completed

Production control in discrete manufacturing within Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management aims to enhance efficiency, control, and visibility in the production of distinct items. It offers tailored solutions to the unique challenges and requirements of discrete manufacturing processes.

This module described how to analyze production costs and how to use them to estimate material and capacity consumption. Additionally, the module explained the following concepts:

  • General ledger and manufacturing integration as production control is integrated with features in other modules

  • Inventory posting profiles, along with item groups and item model groups that you can use with each posting update in the inventory subledger and general journal

  • End production orders, which allow you to compare actual costs to estimated material and time consumption costs that the system calculated when the production order was first estimated

  • Production journals, which you can use to report item consumption, route consumption, and finished items

  • How to set up dimension links and use production reports
