Business value

Enriching the goods-in-transit process with Quality Control in Dynamics 365 is a transformative initiative that elevates supply chain operations. This integration ensures that products undergo stringent quality checks throughout transit, guaranteeing the delivery of high-quality goods when they are received at the warehouse.

Feature details

Quality orders in Supply Chain Management now support goods-in-transit orders as a reference type. This makes it possible to initiate the quality control process for goods-in-transit orders, ensuring a heightened level of product quality throughout the goods-in-transit process. Users can monitor existing quality orders and proceed with further actions directly from the goods-in-transit order form. This integration enhances visibility and control over quality-related processes, promoting a proactive approach to maintaining and safeguarding product quality when importing goods from the Landed Cost module.

During the quality control process, inventory from goods-in-transit orders can be blocked to prevent the shipment of defective products. This function aligns with regulatory compliance and helps to mitigate legal risks. The proactive approach of inventory blocking reduces rework costs, avoiding the need for post-distribution corrections. Ultimately, this integration helps ensure that only high-quality products reach your customers, fostering brand trust and loyalty.
