Consumption Percentage: Visibility in Business Central

Many manufacturing teams struggle to accurately track consumption against production orders within Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, often relying on manual checks and spreadsheets that introduce errors and delays. Sysco Software’s Consumption Percentage App provides a focused solution by displaying consumption information directly within Business Central, improving visibility and streamlining the production process.

Key Features: Tracking and Displaying Consumption Data

The app automatically calculates the consumption percentage for each production order based on posted consumption journals. This calculation is displayed prominently within Business Central, providing real-time insights into material usage relative to planned requirements.

Displaying Information in Lists

Consumption percentages are displayed directly on released and finished production order lists, offering a quick overview of progress for production managers and supervisors.

Real-Time Updates

The app updates consumption percentages in real time as consumption journals are posted, ensuring that users always have access to the most current information.

Supporting Manual Processes

The Consumption Percentage App is designed to support teams using manual consumption posting or component flushing controls.
