A company implements Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management to automate their manufacturing process.
You need to ensure raw material needed for the production process is available.
What should you do?
This item tests the candidate’s knowledge of master planning. Master planning allows companies to determine and balance the future need for raw materials and capacity to meet company goals and is part of the manufacturing strategy.
The master planning process checks the demand, calculates the raw material requirements, and creates planned purchase orders accordingly. The production process describes the various stages of production orders, batch orders, and Kanbans, from order creation to closing of the financial period. A purchase order is something you would receive from a vendor, not something you would create when making a purchase. Service agreements are used to group service agreements by, for example, company size, geographical location, or industry type.
