What are the real-world challenges and best practices of using Dynamics 365 for Manufacturing?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 24
We are evaluating Microsoft Dynamics 365 (Finance, Supply Chain, and Business Central Manufacturing) for a multi-site manufacturing environment with complex BOMs, mixed-mode production, subcontracting, and high transaction volumes.
 
I’d like to hear from professionals who have implemented or supported Dynamics 365 for manufacturing scenarios:
 
  • How does it perform with large BOMs, heavy production postings, and frequent MRP runs?
  • Any limitations with shop floor integration, MES/IoT connectivity, or barcode scanning?
  • How reliable is master planning and capacity scheduling in high-mix environments?
  • Did you rely mostly on standard features or significant customization?
  • Any common integration pain points with PLM, WMS, or third-party systems?
  • Lessons learned, pitfalls to avoid, or best practices you’d recommend?
 
Looking for practical, hands-on experiences rather than marketing insights. Thanks in advance!

    Hi talktoaliveallen,
     
    Can you clarify if you are really considering to use both Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (for Finance and SCM) and Dynamics 365 Business Central (for Manufacturing)?

    Please clarify the scenario. Is it only Dynamics 365 F&O, only Dynamics 365 Business Central, or best of breed from both solutions?
