Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3 CU10 is now available to our customers Cumulative Update 10 build number is 6.3.3000.110.
Please note, as happened for AX 2012 R3 CU9, the application version will show a different number of: 6.3.3000.110 if you apply CU10 to an existing install of Ax2012 R3. This is due to all the individual models that are applied to your system through the CU10 install.
The one model indicating all models for CU10 has been applied has version number 6.3.3000.110. Using a slipstream process as detailed in the Installation guide will result in the single full model applied for CU10 with build number 6.3.3000.111. The Slipstream build is only available from the LCS updates tile.
Some enhancements we like:
A new field called Available physical on exact dimensions has been added to the On hand by location form. This field shows the available physical quantity for all the dimensions displayed on the screen.
There have been performance improvements to the on hand stored procedure to use better query plans and make sure it is only called when necessary.
A new clean up job has been added under Inventory management > Periodic > Clean up > Warehouse management on-hand entries cleanup. This job will delete records in the InventSum and WHSInventReserve tables for closed on-hand entries.
It is now possible to overproduce with back-flushing when using a scrap factor on the Bill of Materials line. Any overproduction using warehouse management enabled items will be recalculated to determine the correct raw material consumption quantity. The correct variable scrap will be taken into account and the remainder will be picked if there is enough on-hand in the production input location.
Scheduled routes can now be generated from a route plan, where the segments of the scheduled route correspond to the hub configuration associated with the route plan. A batch job is used to create the scheduled routes depending on date range, particular days of the week and a load template.
The scheduled routes can be used with Load building workbench in order to create optimal loads for the routes.
