Explanation
Box 1: Configure Warehouse parameters
Turn on the auto-update shipment functionality
To turn on the auto-update shipment functionality, follow these steps.
* Go to Warehouse management > Setup > Warehouse > Warehouses.
* Select warehouse 24.
* On the Warehouse FastTab, in the Auto update shipment field, change the value from On quantity decrease to Always.
After you change the value to Always, any increases or decreases in the quantities on sales order lines and transfer order lines, and any additions of new lines, are reflected on shipments and loads for the selected warehouse, given the previously mentioned update constraints.
Box 2: Disable automatic work creation.
Change the wave template so that load lines aren't automatically processed To configure the wave template so that it doesn't automatically process load lines, follow these steps.
* Go to Warehouse management > Setup > Waves > Wave templates.
* Select wave template 24 Shipping default.
* Select Edit.
* On the General FastTab, set the Automate wave creation option to Yes, and make sure that all other options are set to No.
It's important that no work be automatically created and released as part of the wave creation process. After work is created that is related to the load line that was created for the sales order line, the load line is no longer automatically updated if the quantity on the sales order line is changed.

Box 1: Price group
A school that is part of the special paint program reports that a sale price on canvas last month was a better price than its paint program price. The school requests a price adjustment.
Trade Agreement Logic
Before we go and set up a trade agreement let's first discuss how the system evaluates trade agreements. When Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations evaluates trade agreements it tries to find the most specific pricing that falls within the validity dates. What I mean by "most specific" pricing is, the system checks the "Party type code" as well as the "Product code type" to see if there is a valid price specific to that customer or vendor for the specific product selected on the sales order or purchase order line respectively. Then if it cannot find that most specific combinations it looks for the next level up which are the price groups and then finally if it can't find prices at the group level it looks for prices that may apply to all vendors or customers.
Box 2: Find next on trade agreement line for select customers only
The next trade agreement type is a line discount. As the name suggests a line discount will appear on the sales order line as a percentage discount or a per unit discount depending on how the trade agreement is set up.

Background
Trey Research is a multinational manufacturer of health and dietary supplements based in Seattle, Washington.
The company is experiencing a rapid expansion not only in its supplements but as a lifestyle brand that also sells apparel. The supplements and apparel businesses operate independently but manufacture and operate in the same legal entity.
Current environment
Current environment. Technology
Trey Research is migrating from an outdated, on-premises version of Dynamics AX to Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. The company wants to retain a lot of its current data structures and processes but adopt new efficiencies when the benefit is obvious. The company uses a third-party e-commerce site that is custom developed by an internal developer.
Current environment. Items
Product numbering
All items are numbered by using a smart numbering format: [Product SKU+Size+Color+Style]. For reporting, items are queried for sales and inventory reports by using the first six digits of the item number or until the first dash is encountered.
* A t-shirt could be 01001-S-Red for item 1001 in a size small with the color red.
* A single energy drink could be 02001-12oz or 02001-20oz for the different sizes that product 02001 is sold in.
Product attributes
* All clothing shares the same set of product attributes.
* Supplements may share the same Product SKU but can have different attributes for the different size, color, or style variations of the product.
* Product attributes that are unnecessary for an item should be excluded from the item.
Pricing
* All items always have a default price. This price will not expire.
* An item will have four different prices created for it every month, one for each customer tier, as detailed later in this section. The pricing expires at the end of the month. If no special pricing is created, the default item price will be used.
* The monthly sales price in which the additional price breaks are determined is based on the estimated cost of the manufactured items.
* Customers are categorized into four pricing tiers (A, B, C, and D) based on sales volume over the past 12 months.
* Customers can negotiate special pricing for items in 30-day, 60-day, and 90-day increments. Quantity restrictions may be placed, depending on the item discount and promotion.
* Promotional pricing is not used today. Pricing is restricted to monthly prices and customer-specific contract pricing.
Cost
Items use a FIFO costing model today in their current Dynamics AX 2009 environment; however, using the FIFO costing method has created problems.
Current environment. Warehouse and inventory
* Warehouse requirements are simplistic. There is only one site. The site has two warehouses.
* Trey Research needs to make sure that any energy drinks and nutritional supplements are manufactured and packaged with the highest standards. Trey Research automatically inspects products when all products are reported as finished. All products are inspected again when the items are picked.
* Energy drinks require independent tests to check for dents in packaging, carbonation levels, and fill level.
* Nutritional supplements require separate tests for packaging, expiration date, product seal, and product labeling.
* Government compliancy and consistency testing are handled outside of the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system.
* Resalable products are placed on one of two racks in the warehouse.
Requirements
Requirements. Technology
* Trey Research will integrate all pricing and discount capabilities to its e-commerce website.
Requirements. Items
* Reporting on products should be streamlined as much as possible.
* The item numbering does not have to equate to the actual item number.
* The future costing methods adopted must be commonly accepted for manufacturers.
* Inventory costing should be done after a full inventory valuation is complete. It should take into consideration the direct materials, direct labor, and overhead that goes into an item.
* Any costing method used needs the ability to track cost records about an item, cost categories, and calculation formulas for indirect costs.
* The profitability for nutritional supplements manufacturing processes needs to be expressed in terms of the cost categories for routing operations and the calculation formulas for manufacturing overheads.
* If a vendor can no longer deliver the raw materials for the energy drinks due to supply chain issues, the costs for using an alternative vendor to source the raw materials should be used to determine the impact on profits.
* Apparel items will not be upgraded to the new costing method until after the go-live date due to resourcing and implementation limitations from the apparel team.
Requirements. Pricing
* Trey Research plans to do promotional pricing. Certain products will receive special pricing during the hours of extreme sporting events that Trey Research sponsors. Before or after the event, normal pricing will resume.
Requirements. White labeling
* Trey Research wants to start white labeling its products under the brands of major nutritional retail store brands. These products would only be sold to specific customers.
* Trey Research will provide and maintain a 'Compare to' price for customers to use to compare the white-labeled products. This Compare to price will also be the default item price for the customer if the customer accidentally lets a contract price expire.
* The configuration of these restrictions must be applied automatically when creating new products for those customers.
Requirements. Warehouse and inventory
* If products in the warehouse must be blocked from transactions for a specific reason, such as a health and safety review, warehouse users should be able to block the products quickly from the ERP system.
* All product quality tests should be processed in a uniform and consistent manner.
* Creation of any quality processes for products inbound to the warehouse, from the production line, or outbound from the warehouse to consumers should be automatically created to facilitate execution.
* Testing requirements:
Requirement 1: 100 percent of all nutritional supplements and 50 percent of all energy drinks must be tested when production orders are completed. After a product is in testing, 100 percent of all tests must be completed.
Requirement 2: 75 percent of all nutritional supplements and energy drinks should be tested against their required tests during an outbound process.
Damaged products must be placed in one of four bins (based on product type) during the inspection process.
You must define quarantine zones to optimize product visibility throughout the testing process.
