Dynamics 365
Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a unique business application solution that offers far more than the sum of its parts – although those parts are quite powerful on their own! Built on the Microsoft intelligent cloud, Dynamics 365 combines full blown ERP and CRM capabilities with a built-in, mobile-ready POS solution and deep integration into Office 365, Power BI, and the rest of Microsoft’s extensive cloud portfolio.
What makes it different from other cloud-based offerings is that Dynamics’ business applications all pull from a single database. That being said, if your business needs don’t call for every part
of Dynamics 365, that’s ok too! Both the ERP and CRM portions can be implemented as stand-alone modules.

In the long run, this method was always more cost-effective for
our clients and paved the way for smoother operations in the future. But the more we implemented Dynamics AX, the more we noticed we were repeatedly doing some of the same custom work to ensure a perfect fit for clients. That realization was the start of what we now call Sunrise 365.
Today, Sunrise 365 is a suite of solutions and services that help tailor Dynamics 365 to apparel, footwear, home furnishings, consumer goods, and textile organizations with manufacturing, distribution, and/or retail operations. Each component
of Sunrise 365 has been carefully developed to ensure that it helps our clients get the maximum value out of their investment.
In the past, Sunrise always tried to use as much of the base functionality
available in Dynamics AX (now Dynamics 365) as possible.

Brands don't compete, their
supply chains compete
Sunrise started out as a supply chain consulting firm, so we understand the challenges of managing the ever-changing complexities of a global supply chain.
That’s why we created our Sunrise 365 Supply Chain solution. It allows you to proactively manage your supply chain with improved planning, execution, and analysis.

Sunrise 365 Supply Chain Solution
Dynamics 365 already features robust supply chain functionality, but we’ve taken it up a notch. Advanced demand and forecast planning, omni-channel inventory optimization, prioritized order release, and visual real-time analysis tools fine-tune the system for your industry.
®
Better decision making with advanced supply chain planning
With solution-agnostic integration,
you can seamlsesly feed your forecast to Dynamics 365 prior to and during seasons. when combined with intelligent forecast selection and netting, you can feel confident in the accuracy of your netted demand.
Timely visibility and accurate analysis across a global supply chain
Built-in dashboards, powerful soft allocation capabilities, and ‘what if’ scenarios help you gain early, valuable insight into common supply chain challenges. Armed with this information you can make smarter purchase and production decisions.
Flawless execution and
efficient planning
Once actual sales orders start coming in, you can avoid overstating demand with an advanced bulk order drawdown process. At the same time, planners can experience a much more efficient, comprehensive workbench, that summarizes planning results in an
easy-to-understand manner.
Optimize your omni-channel inventory and supply
As inventory becomes available to fulfill orders, you can enable an automated order releases process. These actions can be configured to prioritize customers channels, order types, or other criteria such as order completion percentage and ship date windows.
Seamlessly manage integrations
Manage all of your data integrations directly within Dynamics 365 for a seamless, user friendly experience. Our integration manager provides a central hub for viewing/editing integrations with ease, while allowing for virtually any form of data to be sent or received between Dynamics 365 and external systems.
“Instead of reacting
to market changes,
we can now perform
long-term, strategic business planning.
At all levels of the organization, people
are aware of the operational context
and can take action
that benefits the
company as a whole
not just a single
channel or business initiative.”

If you’re a retailer, then there’s nothing more important than keeping inventory replenished at levels that will maximize revenue. Traditionally, this has involved bringing in a third-party system and integrating it with your ERP or merchandising system. But not anymore. Sunrise 365 Retail Replenishment is a retail-specific add-on to our Sunrise 365 Supply Chain solution that runs directly in Dynamics 365.
By minimizing integrations and embedding key insights, we’re able to offer all the functionality of a costly third-party system at an outstanding value.

Cheap, fast, easy – really
(and baked right in!)
Third-party systems are costly, require an entirely separate implementation process, and rely
on fragile integrations that have to
be maintained. Sunrise 365 Retail Replenishment, on the other hand,
is embedded directly within the solution. Which means purchase, transfer, and intercompany orders can be auto generated without the data ever leaving Dynamics 365.

You've
Come to
the Right
Partner
We've always believed it was better to be exceptional in a few areas, than "just ok" at many. That's why we've narrowed our focus to a few key verticals.
We Know Apparel
Anybody can buy a suit off the rack. But, when you want to dress for success and make sure your investment lasts a lifetime, you go to a skilled tailor. When you work with Sunrise to implement Dynamics 365, you’re not just getting something off the rack. We understand the inherently challenging aspects of the apparel industry and have tailored Dynamics 365’s standard multidimensional, seasonal, and supply chain functionality to meet the needs of apparel manufacturers, sourcing companies, and retailers.
We Know Footwear
You’d never buy a shoe that was two sizes too small – so why try to cram your business processes into a system that doesn’t fit? Instead of chafing against a system that doesn’t work for the unique complexities of footwear manufacturing, distribution, and retail, try Dynamics 365 on for size. You’ll get multidimensional products, seasonality, and inventory optimization capabilities out of the box. With customer engagement tools, you can be confident you’re always putting your best foot forward. Plus, when you work with Sunrise, you know you’re getting unrivaled industry experience and best practices to boot.
We Know Home Furnishings
No matter if you work primarily with casegoods, upholstery, leather, home textiles, or a combination of all of the above, there’s a good chance that your supply chain has become both more global and increasingly complicated over the last decade. Additionally, many home furnishing brands that traditionally operated as wholesalers are now exploring retail and eCommerce. But few business platforms can handle all of these challenges at once. They’re either too big, bulky, and monolithic, or too niche, underpowered, and unsupported. Dynamics 365, on the other hand, is just right.
We Know Consumer Products
Think about the last time you walked into a big box store. Grocery items flank one side, lawn and garden the other. In the middle is...everything else. Office supplies, handbags, jewelry, toys, cosmetics — the list goes on! It’s hard to believe that a single solution could handle all of those different items, but in the right hands, Dynamics 365 can.
Start your new
day with Sunrise
Since 1994, companies around the world have trusted Sunrise with some of their most challening IT projects. That trust is built on the understanding that every Sunrise team member lives by the same core values: be honest, work hard, and be nice to people.
This dedication to doing what's right and supporting our clients' end-to-end needs has led to long-lasting relationships with some of the world's most well-known brands – and we look forward to working with you next. Our offices and deployment regions span North America, Europe, and Asia, so we can be everywhere you do business.
We Know Retail
Microsoft, which operates more than 130 retail locations, understands that customers are putting more and more demands on retailers to deliver not just the goods, but a great experience. To deliver that experience, you need a 360° view of your customers. That means visibility into every interaction, every purchase, every support case across every channel. Dynamics 365, with its unified operations, CRM, and POS, delivers on this vision. And, when you implement with Sunrise, a Microsoft Retail Partner of the Year, you can be sure you’re working with the experts.
We Know Textiles
Globalization, delocalized production, backward traceability,
and multidimensional item complexities are nothing new in the textile industry. That’s why if you want to increase profitability
and build a competitive advantage it is essential to maintain effective communications, visibility, and control over sourcing
and operational platforms as fibers are transformed into
finished goods. Out of the box, Dynamics 365 can handle these requirements and complexities – but when you weave in Sunrise’s industry experience and solutions, there’s no “greige” area, you’re simply working with the best.
We Know Manufacturing
Our history is deeply rooted in supply chain consulting for discrete manufacturers —in fact, it’s one of the reasons we choose to exclusively implement Dynamics 365. It helps you tighten the weakest links in your supply chain and improve planning, costing, storing, and routing of the various inputs through the process, which helps to reduce waste, move more efficiently, and improve margins. And with Sunrise’s unrivaled experience in discrete manufacturing and industry extensions for Dynamics 365, you’ll be able to hit the ground running.
