Optimizing the Placement of Production Orders through Modification of the Mobile Application in Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O

Situation:

A cable manufacturer was experiencing inconvenience and time delays when processing production orders using the standard WHS mobile app.

Purpose:

Improve and simplify order processing in production by modifying the built-in WHS mobile application in Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O.

Solution:

Modification of the Mobile Application:

Adaptation of the built-in WHS mobile application for automatic creation and placement of orders in production.

Process Centralization:

Unlike the standard solution, where placing an order required moving between different forms, we combined all the steps in one place.

Changes to Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O:

Creating instructions in X++ in Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O for convenient selection of menu items into a single interface.

Combining various production tasks into a single process.

Results:

• We created a convenient and unified workplace in the WHS mobile application to optimize the process of placing orders in production.
• The ordering process has become clear and efficient.
• Improved user experience with production orders. The need to switch between different forms is eliminated. 

Thus, a manufacturing company increased the efficiency of its production employees using Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O.
