Dynamics AX 2012 Blueprints: Configuring Lean Manufacturing

By Murray Fife

The Lean Manufacturing capabilities are new with Dynamics AX 2012, and they give you a different way of managing your manufacturing processes as compared to the traditional discrete manufacturing models of BOM's and Routes. Don't be scared away though by its new terminology and constructs that it uses to model the manufacturing processes. It shares a number of the processes that the traditional manufacturing models use, and is pretty easy to configure if you know the right steps. Also, you don't have to be a pure "Lean" organization to use the Lean manufacturing processes that are built into Dynamics AX. You can pick and choose what you use, and even create hybrid manufacturing models that blend both the traditional and lean processes.In this worked example I will show you how you can create a simple set of Lean Manufacturing processes and see them in in action.
