Business Functions

5 Core Business Functions Powering D365 Medical Device Manufacturing

The organization operates five tightly integrated functions spanning manufacturing execution, warehouse management, and indirect procurement — all consolidated on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations, replacing manual processes and third-party middleware.

01

Manufacturing Execution & Job Costing

D365 MES shop floor device enhanced with a custom duration override parameter — allowing supervisors to adjust job duration and resource assignments on the shop floor, with changes flowing directly to the Job Card Journal for accurate production costing in Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations.

02

Report-As-Finished Without T&A Delays

A custom RAF Skip T&A parameter allows production order Report-As-Finished postings to proceed even when pending Time & Attendance approvals exist — decoupling production closures from HR approval cycles and eliminating costly D365 production order closure delays.

03

D365 Advanced Warehouse Management (AWMS)

Full migration from RF-SMART WMS middleware to native D365 Advanced WMS. Supports license plates, wave processing, reservation hierarchies, batch tracking for biomedical items, mobile device menus, picking, put-away, movement, and label printing — all within Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O.

04

Indirect Procurement (PR-to-PO)

Purchase Requisitions route through category-based approval workflows in D365. Employees shop from vendor webshops via cXML punchout — eliminating internal item masters for indirect goods. Three-way matching enforces financial controls on every vendor invoice automatically in D365 Finance AP.

05

Docentric PO Email Automation

Vendor PO confirmation emails are dynamically generated via Docentric ISV — including PO number, date, and vendor-specific Terms & Conditions hyperlinks in email subject and body. Vendor-specific header/footer notes configurable per supplier within D365 Finance & Operations.

Business Processes

From Shop Floor to Supplier — Fully Traced in D365 F&O

Each manufacturing and procurement activity follows a D365-governed process — from MES job execution and RAF posting through AWMS warehouse operations, cXML punchout buying, and three-way invoice matching — ensuring complete operational traceability.

MES Job Execution MES Job Execution

Shop-floor staff execute jobs via D365 MES device with flexible duration and resource overrides — posting accurate Job Card Journal costs in real time.

RAF Skip T&A Posting RAF Skip T&A Posting
RAF Skip T&A Posting

Production orders close via Report-As-Finished even with pending T&A approvals — using a custom D365 parameter to decouple production and HR cycles.

AWMS Picking & Put-Away AWMS Picking & Put-Away
AWMS Picking & Put-Away

License plates, wave processing, picking, put-away, and label printing managed natively in D365 Advanced WMS — replacing RF-SMART middleware.

cXML Punchout Buying cXML Punchout Buying
cXML Punchout Buying

Employees shop from external vendor webshops via cXML punchout — guided, policy-compliant buying without maintaining an internal item master in D365.

Docentric PO Communications Docentric PO Communications
Docentric PO Communications

Automated, vendor-specific PO emails with dynamic T&Cs hyperlinks generated by Docentric ISV — eliminating manual PO dispatch across all suppliers.

Three-Way Invoice Matching Three-Way Invoice Matching

Integrations

A Unified D365 Ecosystem — No External WMS Middleware

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations is the single integration platform — replacing RF-SMART WMS middleware. The D365 MES shop floor device posts directly to the Job Card Journal. cXML punchout connects vendor webshops to D365 Procurement. Docentric generates and dispatches PO emails dynamically from within D365 print management.

Integrations
Customizations & Extensions

DynaTech Systems delivered targeted manufacturing, warehouse, and procurement customizations to address the organization's shop-floor accuracy, WMS migration, and indirect procurement automation requirements on Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O.

Automation
MES Custom Duration Override Parameter

A configurable D365 MES parameter allows shop-floor supervisors to override job duration and resource assignments — with changes automatically posted to the Job Card Journal for accurate production costing in D365 Finance & Operations.

Automation
RAF Skip Time & Attendance Parameter

Custom D365 parameter enables Report-As-Finished postings to proceed independently of pending T&A approvals — eliminating production order closure delays caused by HR approval backlogs.

Integration
