Essential Guide for Advanced Warehouse Management using Microsoft Dynamics AX: 2016 Edition (Essential Guides for Microsoft Dynamics AX) (Volume 4)

This book focuses on how Dynamics AX supports advanced warehouse management in manufacturing and distribution businesses. It provides an overview of the essential business processes and capabilities, and covers the embedded conceptual models that ultimately shape your vocabulary for describing system usage. The targeted reader consists of warehouse management professionals that need to initially learn AX. This Essential Guide represents an abbreviated version of “Warehouse Management using Microsoft Dynamics AX: 2016 Edition”. This Essential Guide focuses on Advanced WMS topics that apply to both distribution and manufacturing – such as warehouse transactions related to sales, transfers and purchasing as well as integration with advanced transportation management -- but does not cover topics related to production orders. These production-related topics are covered in the complete book, and by other Essential Guides for discrete and process manufacturing. The book contents cover two major options currently available for using AX, which can be labeled “Dynamics AX 2012 R3” and the “new Dynamics AX”. The two options provide the same supply chain management functionality with some slight differences, so that the book contents apply to both options.
