Topic 6, Adatum Corporation
Overview
Adatum Corporation is a multi-entity corporation located in Seattle, Washington in the United States. The company is a leading producer of specialty cakes and cookies. The company also manufactures specialty chocolates that use ethically sourced ingredients from around the world. The company plans to launch a new product line of organic chocolates later this year.
Adatum plans to implement Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management to manage financials, inventory, and manufacturing capabilities across the entire organization.
* Manufactured products are stored at the distribution warehouses until they are shipped to customers.
* Individually branded pre-packaged cake and cookie mixes are supplied to specialty cafes and restaurants. The mixes are shipped directly to the cafes and restaurants from the production factories.
* The company maintains a fleet of trucks and also subcontracts shipments between the factories and warehouses to outside vendors.
* The mixes and specialty chocolates are based on standard recipes that use precise ingredient ratios. There are strict rules around ingredient substitutions.
* All mixes use one of three base recipes as their foundation: BaseA, BaseB. and BaseC. Additional ingredients, spices, and flavorings are then added to make the final product.
* BaseA and BaseB are made in large batches and stored until they are used in the other mixes.
* Mixes with BaseA have a shelf life of six months due to the type of flour it uses.
* Specialty chocolates are manufactured only during the holiday season.
* Specialty desserts are offered during the holiday season. This year, customers may specify additional icing colors and cake layers when placing orders. Depending on the popularity of two of the new colors, they may be offered the next year.
* Cocoa oil that is extracted during the production of some of the specialty chocolates is used in the BaseB foundation mix.
* Cleaning and setup of machinery between products has been causing delays in production.
* Prices of raw ingredients such as sugar can fluctuate greatly depending on seasonal and worldwide demand.
* To properly record profitability, ail raw materials use the first in, first out (FIFO) costing method, while finished products are recorded at standard costs.
* Large fluctuations have been occurring at month end in costs reported due to the inability to track production runs that span from month-to-month.
* Leftover flour and sugar from production runs are collected, packaged, and donated to local food banks if the amount is too small to use in other runs.
* To maintain Adatum's certification as a manufacturer of ethically sourced ingredients, the traceability of every ingredient in all products to their source must be tracked.
* All products must be randomly tested for adherence to quality standards for ingredient makeup and weight.
* Similar recipes must be able to be produced in succession to limit machinery cleaning and setup times.
* All costs must be tracked for each production run and be able to be reconciled at the end of the monthly accounting cycle, including any work in process (WIP) costs and donations.
* The organic chocolate line must be set up. The ingredients cannot be mixed with non-organic ingredients in inventory.
* Mixes are generally stored and sold in 16-ounce bags. Some quantities are sold and distributed in 5. 10. and 20-gallon containers to large restaurants.
* Each mix has a single unique item number and is tracked per batch produced.
* Specialty chocolate products must be stored in climate-controlled areas of the warehouse.
* QA TesterA discovers during a random test that the batch of a mix does not contain the necessary amount of IngredientB.
* VendorZ, who transports finished goods from PlantA to Warehouses, is consistently late picking up product.
* OperatorA must consolidate partial mix batch group runs into saleable package quantities.
* UserB must set up the mix items.
* UserC learns that mixes containing BaseA have been stamped with a batch date from the flour vendor and is not being calculated from the mix manufacturing date. The mixes from the past month that might be impacted need to be identified and the calculation needs to be corrected.
* UserD must update the costs of finished goods. Accounting wants labor calculated in WIP based on how much time an individual spends performing the operation, as well as the finished goods to post to a specific different ledger account.
* UserE must set up and maintain the cost of sugar.
* UserF must decrease downtime for the machinery.
* UserG must plan the specialty desserts for the current holiday season.

Topic 2, Manufacturing Company
General information
A manufacturing company produces custom configured-to-order motorcycles. The company plans to implement Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. The company contains one legal entity located in Missouri where all production and warehousing operations occur.
Customization options
The custom motorcycles have a variety of selections that can be selected in the listed order by the end customer, including the following:

Customization restrictions
The following restrictions on customizations are in place:
* Green color can only be sold with the Legend Trim.
* Orange color can be sold with the Sport or Legend Trim.
* The ML seat must be included in the Legend package.
* The MS seat must be included in the Sport package.
Manufacturing facilities
The company includes the following manufacturing groups: Assembly and Plastic Molding. The Assembly group is responsible for assembling the motorcycles with purchased and manufactured goods. The Plastic Molding group is responsible for manufacture of all plastic parts used in the assembly area.
Motorcycle manufacturing
The parts for the product assembly are picked from the warehouse and staged at the correct workstation by a warehouse operator for each production order.
Plastic manufacturing
Plastic parts are molded using dyes that create multiple parts at once. The parts are machined in the same production process to remove excess plastic and add additional holes for assembly. Excess plastic is recycled back into the feedstock of the same color plastic chips for use in the molding process.
Metal Parts
Raw metal parts are purchased fully machined but without primer or paint. The parts are subcontracted to a vendor for primer and paint based upon the color requirements.
Facility
The company has a single warehouse that supports both the assembly and plastic manufacturing areas. The warehouse consists of three aisles with 15 bins and three shelves. The facility has no Wi-Fi capacity but has hardwired terminal stations throughout the assembly production line.
Transactions are currently completed by office staff. Raw materials transfer must support capacity constraints for paint and primer.
