2Hi all,
I'm a developer working on Dynamics 365 F&O integrations. I've spent the last few weeks reading planning data out of F&O over OData, and I've hit the limit of what the data alone can tell me. I'd like to hear from people who actually run planning day to day.
1. When master planning tells you an item is short, how do you work out which purchase order to chase? Net requirements / pegging, a personalised list, or an export to Excel?
2. Roughly how long does it take you to get from "this part is short" to "I know which customer order is at risk"?
3. Do you trust the lead times and confirmed delivery dates in your system? I've been comparing the stored purchase lead time against the actual elapsed days from the order date to the product receipt date. Two things surprised me. The gap is often large - and in the dataset I've measured, more than half the goods receipts were posted on the same day the purchase order was raised, which makes that history unusable for measuring anything at all. Curious whether that matches what you see in a live system.
4. If something told you your planning master data was wrong - items with no lead time, purchase lines with no confirmed date, items with no safety stock - would that be useful, or would it just be annoying?
I'm not selling anything and there's nothing to click. I'm trying to find out whether a problem I think exists is actually real. Happy to post back what I learn.
Thanks.
