We are announcing the ability for companies in China running Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management on Azure operated by 21Vianet to run Planning Optimization in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. This feature will reach general availability on June 1, 2026. How does this affect me? Planning Optimization is a fast, scalable, cloud-based planning engine for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management that enhances master planning efficiency and responsiveness to empower planners with faster, more dynamic insights. Planning Optimization offers the following benefits: Offloads master planning from the main ERP database, reducing SQL load and system contention during planning runs. Boosts performance, turning hours-long runs into minutes, even for large datasets, by leveraging a scalable, multi-tenant cloud service. Supports ad-hoc and on-demand planning, enabling near real-time updates during business hours instead of waiting for nightly batch jobs. What action do I need to take? This message is for awareness, and no action is required. If you would like more information on this feature, please visit Run Planning Optimization on Azure operated by 21Vianet.
