Assess and optimize Dynamics 365 Warehouse Management System archiving to improve warehouse speed and scalability
As warehouse activity grows in Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, system performance can degrade under the weight of millions of historical warehouse records. Microsoft’s March 2026 release (10.0.47) introduces Long-Term Archiving for Warehouse Management, giving organizations a new way to address this issue. But for many customers, safely implementing archiving in a live production environment is not straightforward. High volumes of closed warehouse work records and load records can slow handheld devices, delay warehouse execution, increase labor costs, and create technical risk if archiving is not configured correctly.
Western Computer’s Dynamics 365 Warehouse Management System Performance & Archiving Assessment is designed to help organizations diagnose current warehouse performance issues, quantify the underlying data burden, and build a safe remediation plan. This is the first step in a two-step engagement that addresses three connected performance levers together: long-term archiving for Warehouse Management System, inventory transaction consolidation, and Pro Number generation optimization. Rather than treating warehouse slowness as a single issue, Western evaluates the broader performance picture to identify what is creating friction on the warehouse floor and what should be prioritized first.
During this 3–5 day assessment, Western Computer analyzes the size and growth of key warehouse data tables, including WHSWorkTable and WHSLoadTable, reviews current archiving conditions, and establishes current-state performance baselines such as mobile device response times and bottleneck areas. The engagement also examines dependencies that could affect implementation, including reporting, integrations, audit trail requirements, inventory transaction consolidation needs, and Pro Number generation performance.
Customers receive a clear set of deliverables at the end of the assessment, including a Warehouse Management System Performance Assessment Report with current-state analysis, table sizes, row counts, growth trends, and performance baselines; a risk and dependency analysis covering reporting, integrations, and audit considerations; a recommended remediation plan with prioritized actions; and a Step 2 execution estimate outlining timeline, effort, and cost expectations.
If the customer chooses to proceed, Step 2 is a separately scoped implementation engagement that typically takes 2–6 weeks, depending on transactional volume and overall complexity. Step 2 deliverables can include configured long-term archiving for Warehouse Management System, completed inventory transaction consolidation, Pro Number generation optimization, a before-and-after performance comparison report, technical documentation, and knowledge transfer for ongoing maintenance.
Pricing is structured in two parts. Step 1: Warehouse Management System Performance Assessment is a fixed-fee engagement of $15,000 plus travel and expenses. Step 2: Warehouse Management System Archiving & Performance Optimization is scoped based on the assessment findings, with an estimated range of $25,000 to $75,000+, depending on transactional volume and complexity.
This offer is ideal for organizations experiencing warehouse performance degradation and looking for a safe, structured path to archive historical Warehouse Management System data, improve mobile responsiveness, and optimize warehouse system performance without disrupting reporting, integrations, or auditability.
