Business Central for Manufacturing Companies
Streamline Production, Inventory, Purchasing, Costing, and Shop-Floor Operations with Business Central
Manufacturing companies need better control over production planning, raw material availability, inventory movement, purchase requirements, costing, and delivery timelines. When these processes are managed in disconnected systems or spreadsheets, it becomes difficult to track production progress, material consumption, stock availability, and actual manufacturing cost.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central helps manufacturing businesses manage their complete operations in one connected ERP system. From production planning to inventory control, purchase management, costing, finance, and reporting, Business Central provides real-time visibility and better control across the entire manufacturing process.
Manufacturing Challenges Business Central Helps Solve
Lack of visibility into raw material and finished goods inventory
Manual production planning using spreadsheets
Difficulty tracking production orders and shop-floor progress
Delays due to material shortages
Inaccurate product costing and margin calculation
Poor coordination between sales, purchase, inventory, production, and finance teams
Manual tracking of consumption, output, and wastage
Limited reporting on production cost, inventory value, and profitability

Production Planning and Control
Business Central helps manufacturers plan, create, and manage production orders based on demand, inventory availability, and production requirements. Businesses can define what needs to be produced, how much needs to be produced, when it should be completed, and which materials and resources are required. This helps production teams improve planning accuracy, reduce last-minute shortages, and maintain better control over production schedules.
Bill of Materials Management
Manufacturing businesses can define production BOMs for finished goods and semi-finished goods. A BOM helps the system understand which raw materials, components, and quantities are required to manufacture a product. This improves material planning, reduces manual errors, and helps ensure that production teams use the correct components for each finished item.
Routing and Shop-Floor Operations
Business Central allows companies to define production routings for manufacturing operations. Routings help identify the sequence of production steps, work centers, machine centers, setup time, run time, and capacity requirements. This gives better visibility into shop-floor activities and helps businesses understand how production work moves through different operations.
Inventory and Material Availability
Business Central connects production with inventory management. Before production starts, the system helps check whether required raw materials and components are available. It also helps track stock levels, inventory movement, finished goods, and material consumption. This helps manufacturers avoid production delays, reduce excess inventory, and maintain better control over stock.
Purchase Planning for Raw Materials
When required materials are not available, Business Central can support purchase planning based on demand and production requirements. This helps purchase teams understand what needs to be ordered, from which vendor, and when it is required. This improves coordination between production and procurement teams and helps reduce material shortage issues.
Production Consumption and Output Tracking
Manufacturing companies can record material consumption and finished goods output against production orders. This helps track how much material was used, how much quantity was produced, and whether there is any variance between planned and actual consumption. This provides better control over production performance, wastage, and inventory accuracy.
Manufacturing Cost Control
Business Central helps businesses calculate and analyze manufacturing costs by considering material cost, routing cost, capacity cost, and related production expenses. This helps management understand the actual cost of finished goods and improve pricing, profitability, and margin control. Accurate costing also helps finance and operations teams make better business decisions.
Real-Time Reporting and Visibility
Business Central provides real-time visibility into production orders, inventory, purchases, costing, sales, and finance. Management can review key information such as production status, stock availability, purchase requirements, inventory value, and profitability from one system. This helps business owners and managers make faster and more informed decisions.
