Shop Floor Indent & Auto Reserve for D365 Supply Chain

Shop Floor Indent & Auto Reserve

In manufacturing, even a short delay in material issuance can halt production lines and impact delivery timelines. BaffleSol’s Shop Floor Indent & Auto Reserve app for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management (SCM) eliminates these inefficiencies by digitizing indents, auto-generating transfer orders, and aligning material movements with production needs in real time.

The solution supports both BOM-linked and ad hoc materials, enables partial fulfilment, and reserves materials instantly upon receipt—keeping lines moving without disruption. By providing real-time visibility of stock, alternates, and shortages, it reduces idle time and prevents costly stockouts. Built natively within D365 SCM, it feels like part of your operations while cutting manual steps and ensuring full auditability with role-based security and embedded dashboards.

Why Choose Shop Floor Indent & Auto Reserve?

Indent Creation

Store or production users raise indents directly from the production order (BOM or ad hoc).



How It Works in Manufacturing

Auto Transfer Orders

System generates transfer orders instantly and links them to production needs.

Reservation & Issuance

Materials are auto-reserved upon receipt, eliminating delays.

Exception Handling

Manages alternates, shortages, partial issues, and urgent requisitions.

Analytics & Reporting

Power BI dashboards provide real-time visibility into lead times, shortages, and throughput impact.

Integration Technologies

Automates workflows triggered by events like indent creation, shortage alerts, or urgent requests. Example: if safety stock drops, Power Automate can auto-initiate replenishment or send real-time alerts.

Enables enterprise-grade integrations between D365 SCM, third-party WMS, MES, or supplier systems—critical for global or multi-company setups.

APIs connect with logistics partners, vendor portals, or legacy ERPs to streamline inbound and outbound flows, ensuring data consistency.

Visualizes material flow and bottlenecks in real time. Plant managers and CFOs can track KPIs like idle time saved, stock turnover, and shortages avoided.

Use Cases

Action Setup
Product or service data is prepared in D365 FinOps and shared with SharePoint to create the e-auction listing. This ensures consistent and accurate information across both platforms.
Bidding Process
Stakeholders place bids through SharePoint. The bid data is automatically updated in D365 FinOps, reflecting the latest auction status and pricing information.
Auction Completion
Winning bids and bidder details are synchronized with D365 FinOps. The system generates invoices, updates inventory and manages payment processing.
Post-Auction Analysis
Data from both platforms is consolidated in D365FinOps’s reporting module. This enables organizations to analyze metrics such as bid frequency, average sale price, and return on investment (ROI).
