Syscom 365

Product Configuration

All the tools you need, in one convenient place

In Make-to-Order (MTO) manufacturing, products are configured when an order is placed and the various product options have been chosen. Syscom 365 enhances the capabilities of the Microsoft Dynamics 365 configurator allowing a clear and concise route from product configuration, billing materials to final manufacture. Once an order has been placed, the system automatically calculates a price based on the chosen criteria, taking into account the materials used and the custom variations chosen by the customer which may effect the price.

The product configurator deals with any option of choice – colour, style, length, size, material specific parts etc.

Pick to Load

Group Production Orders

The pick to load feature allows production orders to be grouped, which means work can be segregated into production weeks.

The functionality work by selecting works orders, then filtered by item, client, delivery date or sales order, and grouping them.

For a production controller, the production pool can be filtered by year or production week – and you can see the filtered view of the specific production week.

EDI Functionality

Reduce Human Error

EDI functionality allows for data from orders to be processed and imported into the receiving system which Dynamics 365 then automatically translates into a readable sales order, pre-configured with associated BOMs and lines. This allows Make-to-Order manufacturers to reduce human error across their sales ordering process and the times it takes to place an order while being able to maintain one standard format across all sales orders.

The EDI functionality built into Syscom 365 benefits MTO Manufacturers through creating a sales order automatically and being able to work with pre-configured items. Syscom 365 then validates each configuration and automatically creates a works order based on each line of the sales order. This allows each customer to have various EDI import types, their own field mappings and their own delimiters which gives customers a lot of flexibility.
