Warehouse Management Interface for Microsoft Dynamics GP Or Great Plains Computers Articles | May 14 Nate Davis Youth Jersey , 2010 For existing Microsoft Dynamics GP customers, or for the prospects who are in decision making phase on their future Corporate ERP and MRP application, we recommend you this Supply Chain Management oriented publication. ?Great Plains Dynamics was traditionally open for External standalone systems, such as WMS, SCM, Consignment, eCommerce A.J. Brown Youth Jersey , Barcode Scanning based Allocation and Fulfillment via such integration technologies as Integration Manager, SQL Stored Procedures, eConnect and even Microsoft Dexterity
So, you have two options to choose from. ?First would be External high end WMS, having its own functionality and Database with scheduled data migration into Dynamics GP Distribution modules: Sales Order Processing, Purchase Order Processing, Inventory Control and sometimes Bill Of Materials or even Manufacturing Suite of modules. ?And the second approach is to enable these modules in Dynamics GP for Barcode Scanning and integration with WMS client Jeffery Simmons Youth Jersey , working on the Barcode Scanner screen. ?This publication discusses the second approach, the Interface, not external WMS integration: 1. Advantages of WMS Interface versus External Warehouse Management System integration. ?We see several. ?First of all, you do not have to pay for the same WMS functionality in the External system as you already have it in Dynamics GP Supply Chain Management, Logistics set of modules: SOP, POP, Inventory Control. ?Second one is simplified implementation Jurrell Casey Youth Jersey , as you would have to implement your Microsoft Dynamics GP and just extend with Barcode scanning logic GP objects, versus duplicate implementation of the same or similar SCM logic in External WMS and Dynamics GP. ?And the third advantage is coming from the integration implementation complexity and potential to fail. ?When you are implementing two complex systems in parallel and then try to force them talk to each other often in bi-directional manner, you may expect some underwater stones and complexity, often translated into over budgeted consulting hours, unexpected WMS connectors modification and programming, months of pilot External WMS integration prior to deciding to go into production phase 2. Arguments of the opposite side. ?Of course each commercial publication has the bias and we would like to show you the other side of the coin. ?If External Supply Chain Management System has advanced functionality, there might be a good reason to keep all your Inventory Quantities control Kevin Byard Youth Jersey , Sales and Purchasing sides right there and post only General Ledger transactions to your Accounting System, in our case Microsoft Dynamics GP. ?GL might be over simplification, but you may consider to post Sales operations from WMS to just GP Receivable Management module (without the inventory items sales history and statistics, just with the distributions to the appropriate GL Revenue and COGS accounts), the same could be said about Purchasing ? consider just Payable Management module and its AP Voucher with some details in GL distribution. ?Another argument might be this ? Standalone and self sufficient WMS might be already probed in thousands of installations and be more reliable and software bug free 3. Our Warehouse Management Extension works out of Dynamics GP SOP module where you allocate Sales Order lines directly on the warehouse floor by using your barcoding scanner and its WMS client. ?WMS client speaks with WMS server and the server in turn talks to Dynamics GP application database on the ODBC connection level. ?Similar approach is in Purchase Receipts (often referred as Merchandize receipt on the warehouse floor by scanning Vendor packing slip and then item barcode labels and quantities). ?Inventory WMS extensions naturally expose Inventory Adjustment, Transfer and Cycle Count for the Barcoding 4. Beyond standard WMS logic. ?Also what is offered ? Consignment routines, including delivery trucks route optimization (preferred delivery dates of the week and hours are in the algorithm) and other options 5. eCommerce and Modern WMS. ?Yes Derrick Henry Youth Jersey , if you are large or midsize business with the needs in heavy WMS operations, chances are high that you are already in eCommerce B2B or B2C shopping cart integration to Dynamics GP Sales Orders (Magento, Asp.Net Store Front or Nop Commerce shopping carts seems to be very popular). ?This is what we plan to demo on Convergence 2010 in April 2010 in Atlanta or already demoed, depending when you are reading these lines. ?Alba Spectrum eCommerce modules talks to our WMS solutions as it was programmed by the same Dynamics GP ISV. ?For the ecommerce it is also important to select appropriate shopping cart, providing customer Credit Card payment, price list and items catalogue ? all these features are well available in Shopping Cart platforms and we are enabling your chosen Ecommerce SC for Wizard driven integration implementation 6.

Dynamics GP WMS on the International ERP market. ?Former Great Plains Dynamics was localized for the very wide spectrum of countries Marcus Mariota Youth Jersey , including Europe and even Eastern Europe and Russia. ?However with the acquisition of Navision Software Microsoft Business Solutions narrowed Dynamics GP offer to English speaking countries (plus French Canadian for Montreal Quebec), Spanish Speaking Latin America (Mexico, Peru, Argentina, Chile, Caribbean, Colombia Amani Hooker Womens Jersey , Uruguay, etc.). ?Dynamics GP is very popular and reasonably localized for Arabic speaking countries: Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Morocco, Persian Gulf. ?Good news however is the fact that there is Dynamics GP ISV supported add-on
