Features

Syscom 365 Furniture encapsulates all the features of existing furniture systems and is built upon the already outstanding features and stability of Dynamics 365 to create a product that simplifies everyday challenges.

Product Configuration

Everything you need to start and finish a product order is together in one place in our product configurator functionality

Material and Fabric Restriction

For example dye batch and pattern matching

Bulk Picking

Takes a specified range of production orders and collates all the fabric requirements into one document, to help with simplified picking.

BOM & Route Testing

Quickly test the results of a configured model BOM and route.

Pick to Load

Select several works orders and group them together for production whilst changing the delivery date on the works orders and sales order lines automatically.

UID for Stock Transactions

Batch specific unique identification data can be associated with a D365 batch-controlled item

Piecework Scanning

Inventory Management

Manage your inventory and the ordering of fabrics efficiently so that deliveries are on time and accurate.

Product Configuration

Everything you need to start and finish an order in one place

In Dynamics 365, the product is configured when an order is placed. Syscom 365 Furniture enhances the Dynamics 365 configurator – everything you need to start and finish a product order is together in one place. Our modifications provide seamless integration of components and operations into the product configurator. It provides a smooth route from configuration to billing materials, to route through manufacture.

Once a product has been configured, it will calculate a price for a Sales Order based upon the options chosen, taking into account the material used and all variants which may affect the price.

Pick to Load

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.

Pricing features

Price Banding & Cost Banding

Price Banding

The price banding functionality helps you set up prices and costing of your furniture range with options for customisation. For example, fabric, size, number of seats, shape, feet, etc. Syscom 365 Furniture will build the product for you, giving and end-item and a price for a sales order. The functionality also allows different prices for different customers, customer categories and can also include temporary prices. It also caters for different currency prices.

Cost Banding

Cost band functionality allows users to maintain a component, such as fabric, where the fabric item would be used across many different styles of products. It allows each product to have its own consumption of that fabric. If consumption or cost increases over time, its maintained in one place and applied to all production orders, BOM’s and sales orders that have not been started in the production process.

Cost band operations allows different route operations to be selected dependent on the item cost band for normal orders.

EDI Functionality

Orders come in in different forms and this add-on processes the imported data into the receiving system. It allows Dynamics 365 to receive a file from customers and translate them into a sales order with configured lines and BOM’s. This reduces human error and allows you to load your orders in a short period of time in the format you need.

The benefit of the EDI functionality that exists within Syscom 365 furniture is that it will create a sales order automatically but also works with configured items – it can validate configuration and go on to create a works order for each line on sales orders.

This functionality allows each customer to have multiple EDI import types, their own field mappings and their own delimiters and gives customers a lot of flexibility.

We are very comfortable with our choice of Syscom PLC and their furniture specific version of Microsoft Dynamics. Syscom have demonstrated a clear understanding of our industry and the improvements we seek to achieve. We are confident that the new software will provide the stability and flexibility to support our plans for growth and enhanced efficiency going forwards.
