It’s almost time for User Group Summit 2019 and the excitement is building. Many of our team members and clients will be attending. And they’re all scouring the agenda to figure out which they want to attend. It’s challenging because there are so many sessions that sound great.

I’m Andrew Good, President, and CEO at , where a sizeable number of our clients are in the manufacturing space. So, I’ve taken the liberty (pun intended!) of listing our top recommendations for BC/NAV manufacturing sessions that are being presented by other Dynamics partners who have value-added insights to share.

My top 3 session picks in the BCUG/NAVUG Manufacturing category

Summit Session ID: MFG63Title: Get Started Today with MRP

Presenting Partner: Accent Software, Inc.Date: Wednesday, October 16, 2019Time: 4:30-5:30 PMCPE Credit: 1Brief Description: One of the most underutilized aspects of Dynamics 365 BC/NAV is the power of the Planning Worksheet for calculating the Master Production Schedule (MPS) and Material Requirements Planning (MRP). This session is designed to give you enough information to start utilizing this amazing tool. Most companies experience a high ROI from implementing this out-of-the-box Worksheet.

Summit Session ID: MFG59Title: Do You Need a Manufacturing Add-on or is Core NAV Enough?

This session will highlight the manufacturing capabilities available so you can avoid reinventing the wheel. We’ll cover what BC/NAV does well, what it does all right, where it leaves off and where a third-party add-on solution would pick up.

Summit Session ID: MFG57Title: Lessons Learned from a Successful WMS Implementation

Presenting Partner and Customer: LIDD and Garner Foods

Date: Friday, October 18, 2019Time: 9:45-10:45 AMCPE Credit: 1Brief Description: This session shares a case study from community member Garner Foods, about their WMS implementation in their food manufacturing facility. It's a great opportunity to hear the inside story of why they decided to take on this challenge, what their approach was, lessons learned, and the benefits and surprises they've seen.
