In D365 Finance, financial dimensions are part of the ledger account structure, account structures define what combinations are valid at posting, and default dimension...

Industrial and manufacturing organizations operate in a regulatory minefield. Indirect tax (sales tax, VAT, GST), SOX-style internal controls, cross-border trade rules, hazardous materials documentation, sustainability reporting, pick your flavor. The fun part is that “small” gaps rarely stay small. They turn into fines, delayed shipments, audit findings, and that special kind of meeting where everyone suddenly remembers they had “concerns for a while.” Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain...

In industrial organizations, order fulfillment isn’t a single handoff. It’s a chain reaction. Configured products. Long lead times. Partial shipments. Backorders. Engineering changes. Drop-ship orders. Intercompany fulfillment. Warehouse waves. Carrier appointments. And the occasional “we definitely have it… somewhere.” Every step introduces risk—and every missed handoff shows up later as margin erosion, late revenue, invoice disputes, or a customer escalation that begins with: “Just checking in…” (Spoiler alert: they were...

When in the home stretch of an implementation, the go-live can seem like the finish line, when it is really the starting gun.  More often than not, the first 90 days after go-live determine whether the organization locks in value or slips into prolonged disruption. As leaders, our mandates are clear. We need to stabilize operations fast, protect customer service, and establish disciplined habits that turn our QAD system into...

Supplier risk used to be a “special topic” reserved for global disruptions. In 2026, it’s a daily operating condition, especially when a supplier’s “confirmed” date keeps moving like it’s on a treadmill.

And predictable beats “technically we had a contract” every time. Here’s the Logan perspective:...
