Business value

Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management now provides an effective, accurate, and performant process for tracking serial and batch numbers of components and finished goods. It helps make sure that manufacturers can comply with industry standards and regulations and helps ensure the quality of processes such as maintenance, warranty, and recalls.

Feature details

Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management now enables manufacturers to:

  • Track serial and batch numbers of components used in production orders and link them to serial and batch numbers of finished goods.
  • Generate production orders with quantities exceeding one unit, even when both components and finished products are subject to serial or batch number control.
  • Set up the serial number and batch number tracking process to seamlessly integrate with job management.
  • Track serial and batch numbers both from within the production floor execution interface and through the standard UI for managing production orders.

To enable these features, Supply Chain Management connects to the supply chain traceability service. Supply Chain Management lets workers work effectively by scanning barcodes with serial and batch numbers and lets supervisors view and edit the tracking details. The supply chain traceability service provides high-performance traceability and can connect to a variety of other data sources as needed.
