Central Production Planning App for Dynamics 365 Business Central

Transforming Multi-Site Manufacturing with Seamless, Real-Time Production Coordination

Introduction

We’re thrilled to announce a significant leap forward for manufacturers.

The launch of our Centralized Production Planning  app for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, now available on Microsoft AppSource.

In the dynamic world of manufacturing, where agility and operational precision are vital, managing multiple production facilities can be a daunting challenge. Fragmented order processing, inconsistent data, and dispersed planning cycles often hinder efficiency and growth. With our new Centralized Production Planning solution, these challenges are a thing of the past—giving your organization the control, visibility, and flexibility it needs to excel in today’s competitive marketplace.

Why Centralized Production Planning?

The demands on modern manufacturing organizations are greater than ever. Customers expect faster delivery, higher quality, and consistent fulfillment across every order. For manufacturers operating multiple factories, synchronizing production processes, resources, and materials can quickly become a complex juggling act.

Recognizing these pain points, we designed the Centralized Production Planning app to serve as a powerful command center for all your manufacturing operations. By unifying sales, production, and inventory management within Dynamics 365 Business Central, our solution empowers you to seamlessly orchestrate manufacturing capacities from a single, centralized platform.

Key Features and Capabilities

The following are the key features and capabilities of central planning.

Consolidated Sales and Order Management

Manage all customer orders centrally, no matter how many factories you operate. The app provides a comprehensive view of demand across your organization, streamlining order intake and ensuring data consistency. You gain the clarity you need to plan with confidence and respond proactively to market shifts.

Multi-Factory Production Planning

Allocate and synchronize manufacturing orders across all your facilities, factoring in resource availability, capacity, location, and lead times. Say goodbye to bottlenecks and idle machines; our solution intelligently balances workloads, maximizes throughput, and optimizes every manufacturing asset.

Real-Time Production Visibility

Access live dashboards with up-to-the-minute key metrics—order status, production progress, machine utilization, and capacity bottlenecks. With actionable insights at your fingertips, you can make swift, data-driven decisions that keep your operations agile and resilient.

Optimal Resource & Capacity Planning

Align factory workloads with available raw materials, manpower, and machinery. Our solution ensures your manufacturing assets are used efficiently at each production facility—driving productivity and reducing costs.

Flexible, Industry-Ready Customisation

Every manufacturer is unique. The Centralized Production Planning app lets you adapt workflows, routing, and scheduling rules to fit your precise processes—whether you’re managing discrete, process, or mixed-mode production. Easily handle complex multi-entity manufacturing environments, all within a familiar Dynamics 365 interface.

Automation & Data Integration

Automate routine scheduling tasks and synchronize data across your supply chain, minimizing manual entry errors and accelerating your planning cycles. Our app acts as the digital glue that connects your entire manufacturing ecosystem.

The Business Value: Transformative Benefits for Manufacturers

The following describe the transformative benefits.

Enhanced Cross-Plant Coordination

Foster seamless communication and collaboration between your sales, production, and logistics teams—no matter where your factories are located. With everyone operating from a single source of truth, unified operations become a reality.

Cost Savings & Resource Optimization

By balancing workloads across sites and reducing both waste and overproduction, you achieve significant cost efficiencies and maximize your competitive edge.

Scalable Support for Growth

As your business expands, so does our app. Centralized Production Planning is built to grow with you, supporting additional factories and more complex production scenarios as your enterprise evolves.

Accelerated Lead Times & On-Time Delivery

Improve scheduling accuracy to fulfill orders faster and more reliably. Meet strict delivery deadlines and increase customer satisfaction with every shipment.

Improved Competitive Edge

Consistently deliver high-quality, on-time products. When you can trust your planning and execution, you can focus on delighting customers and winning new business.

Solving Real-World Manufacturing Challenges

Many manufacturing businesses struggle with fragmented production planning across their facilities. Common issues like double-booked machines, uncoordinated raw material consumption, and misaligned order fulfillment dates can result in costly delays and dissatisfied customers.

Our Centralized Production Planning app tackles these issues head-on:

Unified Order Management

Instead of managing sales orders in silos, all demand is captured centrally. This eliminates duplication and ensures every order is visible, prioritized, and scheduled appropriately across your production network.

Smart Allocation Engine

Based on real-time capacity and material availability, the app automatically assigns production to the best-fit facility—minimizing downtime and maximizing output.

Live Operational Insight

Supervisors and planners can monitor production progress, identify bottlenecks, and make proactive adjustments. No more chasing spreadsheets or waiting for updates—everything you need is in one place, in real time.

Ready for the Future of Manufacturing

Modern manufacturers must be prepared to adapt quickly to new business models, market trends, and regulatory changes. The Centralized Production Planning app is designed with agility in mind, offering the following:

Customizable Workflows

Tailor the solution to your unique operational requirements, with support for industry-specific processes and compliance needs.

Automated Scheduling

Reduce reliance on manual planning, freeing your teams to focus on strategic improvements rather than repetitive data entry.

Intercompany Collaboration

Generate production demand in one or more selected factories based on customer sales orders. Standard intercompany purchasing ensures data consistency and accurate output dates, even in the most complex multi-entity environments.
