D365 F&O Landed Cost Module

     I would like to open this topic to give a summary information on the need of the landed cost module. This is the module most desired, I believe by the SCM (supply chain management) consultants to manage the inbound operations especially when you try to manage GIT (goods in transit) operations. Now you can manage all the process regarding to the purchasing operations under one module.

    For to activate the landed cost module, you need to use feature management and select the landed cost and activate.

    In this module, you can estimate costs, use accruals on goods in transit and track voyages.

    Not to forget that this module differs from TMS (Transpostaion Management Module) You can use both modules at the same time. You can find the list of differences in this link below but I prefer to use the landed cost module on import operations:

For details on how to setup and use landed cost module, please use the link below for Microsoft documentation:

Manage ERP with Success - Blockers of Success

  To manage an ERP process with success is not easy at all. Even there has been processes that have been published by companies, it is mostly depend on the people. In this blog , I am going to share the reasons I see as blockers of during the projects. This is not a scientific measure but just my opinions. Sales Team:  ERP project starts from even before the sales documents are finalized. So company needs (not user/not management etc.) need to be understood wisely and to be checked if the tools can manage these needs and details need to be documented in the contract. Expectations:  Unfortunately, ERP is a software but not a hardware. So expectation management is very important. If it was a hardware, then you will be able to return and to document specific details.  Project Team:  By project team, mostly we understand the consultancy firm but project team does consist of also from customer project managers, users, power users etc. All project team need to be well...

D365 F&O Transportation Module (TMS)

      I would like to give some summary information on the TMS module. TMS module helps you manage your both inbound and outbound operations.   You can plan your shipments, routes, loads, appointments and drier check in/outs.  You can see the fastest or less expensive routes as an example with to assign rates and calculate with engines. Also you can manage and reconcile charges. Please find the Microsoft Documentation for the Module below: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/supply-chain/transportation/transportation-management-overview Also I like the video series below from Michael Cobbin which give detail for the TM module from Tech Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqGKgiDEQLk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqGKgiDEQLk&list=PLaKeZD0fHWIp8zD088_6svgMZ5v1CmJGz&index=8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-gGUxeQSAc&t=1408s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqGKgiDEQLk&t=1456s

Tax Calculation Service (RCS)

      Tax Calculation service helps system to calculate complex taxes between country and locations and EU and multiple tax registration ids. For this purpose you have to setup RCS, enable feature and setup all the scenarios in the tax calculation engine. Not only it helps calculate these but more complex scenarios like calculation of taxes based on margin.     You may find the documentation of Microsoft below and also a video that briefly explains how system works. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/finance/localizations/global-tax-calcuation-service-overview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2fN9AHoYnQ
