Overview

Many manufacturers complete production through multiple batches. They use production batches for better traceability, higher quality products, better inventory management, and better capacity utilization. With production batching, a production order quantity is split into smaller groups with the same bill of material and routing.

Running production orders through batches requires a number of capabilities, which include batch size calculation, batch number generation, batch output registration, and batch consumption reporting. The Production Batching app provides the features and capabilities needed to handle production batching through Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.
