Capture multiple GS1 label segments simultaneously with new feature available in Microsoft Warehouse Management mobile application since 10.0.35 update.

          Are your warehouse processes automated using the Warehouse Management module in your Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management? Then you probably use the Warehouse Management Mobile app for goods receiving. But did you know that in the upcoming release 10.0.35, Microsoft has added a feature that will make receiving in the mobile app even easier, faster, and with fewer errors? I'm talking about the ability to capture multiple segments of GS1 labels simultaneously. Let me tell you more about it. In the Warehouse Management module settings, there has been a GS1 setting for quite some time. GS1 means Global Standard One, an independent non-profit organization that deals with standardizing accounting and barcode encoding.           If you go to Warehouse Management module -> Setup -> GS1 -> GS1 application identifiers, you will find a table to configure the identifiers that determine the content of the barcode you scan from the label on the received goods.

          My previous article describes how to install the Inventory Visibility Add-in for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management and how to set up this feature to use soft reservation functionality. You can find it by the link below: https://d365today.blogspot.com/2023/04/dynamics-365-supply-chain-management_18.html      The goal of this post is to demonstrate, through an example, how this functionality can be useful for businesses. I want to clarify that this case is applicable to companies that have multiple sources for creating sales orders and reserving products for customers. These sources can include Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, e-commerce, web portals, Power Platform applications, and any other external systems that can be integrated using APIs.      To start, let's consider an example that will be demonstrated in a video at the end of the article.

    As you probably know, Products  (Navigation panel > Modules > Product information management > Products > Products) is intercompany data, so the information in it is available in any company at the same time.      Unfortunately, it contains minimal information about the product. The main characteristics and settings of the product are filled in when you release it to a specific company. Therefore, the main product information must be maintained by every legal entity individually which means a high level of duplicated product data.      The cross-company product sharing feature which is available in the 10.0.32 version of Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O lets you share data about Released products across multiple companies.       Just a few steps below, to start using the new feature: Step 1:   To sign up for the public preview of this feature, email the environment ID of your environment in Microsoft Dynamics Lifecycle Services (LCS) to the  Cross-Company Product Sharing
