Enhanced Planning Pack

Supercharge Business Central with a set of apps to optimize your processes and give you more visibility into forecasts and operations.

The Enhanced Planning Pack packs a powerful punch when it comes to item stock levels, forecasting, and optimizing processes in manufacturing and distribution. The series of apps add a ton of functionality to Business Central helping users streamline their planning processes. Existing Business Central users will appreciate the added functionality as much as new users.

When purchasing the Enhanced Planning Pack, it is not possible to pick and choose functionality. The Enhanced Planning Pack includes everything listed below.

A powerful tool to save time and to assist in Material Requirements Planning (MRP) within Business Central.
Material Requirements Planning (MRP) is critical to every manufacturer and with the Enhanced Planning Worksheet from Insight Works you get a powerful tool that saves you time and gives you better insight into your resource requirements. The Enhanced Planning Worksheet also provides alternate planning logic for distribution companies that are struggling with standard NAV or Business Central MRP.

Optimize inventory levels and avoid excess or slow-moving stock by analyzing historical trends and current reordering strategies.
For purchasers, inventory managers, material planners, and others responsible for maintaining stock levels, the Item Planning Review app for Business Central helps optimize item reorder-point parameters, minimum order levels, and other variables. Users can dial in their item planning using historical item data to avoid stock-outs and surplus stock.

Generate more realistic Business Central production forecasts based on historical item usage trends.
For anyone responsible for managing stock-levels of inventory, then the Enhanced Forecasting Worksheet app for Business Central is for you. Unlike the Sales and Inventory Forecast extension for Business Central, where you only view a simple graph, the Enhanced Forecasting Worksheet provides additional metadata and the ability to easily set the reorder point, maximum inventory, and reorder quantity variables.

Easily visualize and edit complex BOM hierarchies to help streamline your bill of material management and engineering operations.
The Multi-Level BOM Viewer app from Insight Works helps streamline the manufacturing process. Not only are you able to view detailed BOM information, but users can also easily edit BOMs. With the Multi-Level BOM viewer, production managers can quickly identify if an item can be produced based on available raw materials. Users no longer need to jump from screen to screen to get the required information or make necessary changes. With the Multi-Level BOM Viewer, all the information and tools you need are at your fingertips.

Evaluate your actual production times to your planned production times to improve costing, sales margins, and scheduling.
If you have ever wondered how accurate your scheduled production run time is on your routings, then you’re going to appreciate the Routing Analysis app from Insight Works. Easily compare average actual run time with scheduled run time to help optimize your manufacturing process.
