Microsoft’s latest preview update for Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, version 10.0.47, delivers practical enhancements across key SCM areas. This release focuses on improving inventory visibility, order fulfillment, warehouse efficiency, master planning accuracy, asset management, and more.
Here’s a summary of the most meaningful updates you should know about.
Inventory and Warehouse Management
Inventory Visibility Enhancements
Supply Chain Management now offers better visibility into inventory across legal entities and channels. This helps businesses provide accurate stock information for omnichannel fulfillment and reduces manual reconciliation work.
Inventory On-hand Improvements
There are updates to how inventory on-hand is processed and reported, which helps improve real-time accuracy and performance when large data volumes are involved.
Advanced Warehouse Management
Warehouse operations have seen improvements in mobile device usability and performance. This includes smoother scanning, faster transaction processing, and more responsive screens for warehouse workers.
Order Management and Fulfillment
Improved Sales Order Processing
This update brings improvements to sales order lines and availability checks. Users will notice better performance with shorter wait times when processing large orders or working with complex fulfillment rules.
Multi-Entity Fulfillment Flexibility
Supply Chain Management now supports additional flexibility around fulfilling orders from different legal entities. This makes cross-entity stock transfers and fulfillment smoother and helps reduce manual workaround processes.
Master Planning
Master Planning Performance
Master planning runs are now more efficient, especially with large datasets. Better performance means planners will spend less time waiting for results and can run plans more frequently.
Planning Engine Enhancements
The planning engine has been improved to produce more accurate results with fewer adjustments. This helps reduce exceptions and makes decision-making faster for planners.
Asset Management
Asset Processing Enhancements
Asset Management includes updates that improve how asset transactions are processed. These changes help ensure that maintenance planning and work orders are recorded accurately and efficiently.
Transportation Management
Freight Settlement Simplification
Freight settlement processes have been streamlined to make it easier to reconcile freight charges against purchase orders or vendor invoices. This reduces administrative effort for logistics teams.
Shop Floor and Production Control
Shop Floor Usability
Shop floor screens have been refined to improve clarity and ease of use for operators. This helps reduce scanning errors and speeds up production transactions.
Production Order Performance
There are performance improvements in production order processing, especially when handling a large number of orders or detailed routing steps.
Quality Management
Quality Orders and Inspections
Quality order handling has been improved with better notifications and status tracking. This allows quality teams to act faster when defects or inspection holds occur.
Procurement and Sourcing
Purchase Requisition Consolidation
Purchase requisitions now benefit from better consolidation logic. This allows buyers to group similar requirements more efficiently and reduces redundant purchase orders.
Supplier Collaboration Enhancements
Supplier collaboration features provide clearer communication trails and better tracking of supplier responses. This helps procurement teams maintain visibility over open requests.
Reporting and Analytics
Enhanced Dashboards
The update brings refinements to several dashboards and analytic views. Users will find insights easier to interpret with clearer segmentation and faster load times.
Real-Time Data Refresh
Reporting tools now support more frequent data refreshes, making near real-time operational visibility more practical for planners and managers.
Final Thoughts
Service Update 10.0.47 for Supply Chain Management focuses on improving everyday operational tasks rather than introducing large new modules. The enhancements you see here are all about performance, visibility, and efficiency, helping organizations run supply chain processes with more confidence and less friction.
As this update becomes available in your environment, spend some time in the Feature Management workspace to review which new capabilities you want to enable first.
