Streamlined Reporting

Lasernet enables Cross Manufacturing to integrate real-time data from Dynamics 365 and legacy systems, simplifying complex reporting needs and improving document generation.

Improved Decision-Making

With access to up-to-date operational reports, the manufacturing team can make better decisions on production sequences and scheduling.

Improved Document Generation

Lasernet enables Cross Manufacturing to quickly generate customer-specific reports and essential manufacturing traceability information.

Lasernet, an optimal single solution

With information stored within Dynamics 365 and a variety of legacy systems, Cross Manufacturing wanted to streamline its reporting capabilities and accelerate its document generation and output requirements.

During their Dynamics 365 implementation, Cross Manufacturing realised that the out-of-the-box reporting solutions were insufficient for their needs. They required comprehensive operational reports to support their manufacturing environment, as well as customer-specific reports and output paperwork that included manufacturing traceability information. This necessitated the integration of data from Dynamics 365 with their previous and legacy ERP systems.

Cross Manufacturing determined that Lasernet was the optimal single solution, given its capability to access real-time information from both Dynamics 365 and legacy systems.

A Multifaceted Reporting Solution

By integrating Lasernet with Dynamics 365, Cross Manufacturing successfully implemented a multifaceted solution that comprehensively addresses their reporting and business document needs.

“Lasernet is key to our use of Dynamics 365. Its capabilities are fundamental and provide business critical functionality, so we are maintaining, and will be maintaining it along with the rest of our Dynamics 365 ecosystem.” Said Jonathan Howe, Head of IT, Cross Manufacturing
