Business value
Supply planning is especially important to businesses that are involved in wholesale activities, manufacturing, and assembly management. To support these businesses, Business Central can generate optimal suggestions for replenishing inventory based on actual and forecasted demand and availability, as well as a variety of planning parameters such as lead times, reorder and safe stock points, and minimum and maximum quantities. To make these advanced supply planning capabilities more widely available, they are now included in the Essentials experience.
Feature details
In the Essentials experience, you can configure the planning engine to fit your company processes on the Manufacturing Setup page. For example, set up planning for multiple locations, simultaneous calculation of MPS/MRP parameters, specify various defaults.
