    These questions require A Lot of documentation and can be answered many ways.

    It is normal to go to Dynamics partners and maybe other vendors with an RFQ and RFI to get answers...

    But in short:

    Q1: D3FO has its own solution for this. Integrating other systems is superfluous, but can be done through the CDS, by using logic apps or customization. You find info on multiple ways to do integrations online.

    Q2: Please watch Dynamics Podcast Episode 15 for more info.  [View:http://dynpodcast.podbean.com/e/15]

    Q3: Check out the Master Plan feature.

    [View:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/unified-operations/supply-chain/master-planning/master-plans]

    Q4: Read up: [View:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/unified-operations/supply-chain]

    Q5: Same as Q4. If you are wondering about networking between different organizations/legal entities. Check out Inter company and Inter company master planning.

    Q6: Yes. Check out Q3. Concept of forward and backwards is described as upstream/downstream

    Q7: If you mean if it has picking routes per warehouse worker: Yes

    If you mean if it has custom logistical flows within a company for same items between different users: No.. and why?

    If you mean different locations for each resource in manufacturing: Yes

    If you mean different logistical concepts based on each legal entity or site with these: Yes.

    This is work for a senior logistics consultant. Most of the answers are in the standard help and the product literature, but are not one word answers.

    Q 1 2 3 are all out of the box, as an integrated system - and any Ax partner one who is expected to answer such questions will understand that. Ax is an integrated erp system, so integration is not needed for these modules.

    Q4 needs customer knowledge of their operation and verticals, and requirement - and could mean many different things.

    Q 5 is asking for a  System design document which seems unreasonable unless you have already scoped and mapped  their requirement, however Ax has multiple parameters, e.g. for master  planning, costing, inventory management, etc to support different verticals

    Q6. Demand forecast tool, which can be taken further with Cortana analytics suite.

    Q 7 The simple answer is yes - but maybe not the ones they want - Ax itself is a development platform, with in built workflow engine and case management, there are also mobile apps for e.g. the warehouse operations this is an open ended question and can mean almost anything.

    Answering rfps of thus nature is not really the point of this forum I feel - it needs specialist consulting expertise and client engagement to qualify the requirements.
