Posted on: July 20, 2021 | By: Jim Bertler | Microsoft Dynamics Business Central

As companies evaluate ERP solutions, they consider a variety of factors and detailed functionality. Often times, the simple benefits are missed, and users don’t even understand the advantages. So here are four simple features of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central,  a cloud-based ERP system from Microsoft for small and mid-market businesses.

What is Business Central

There does seem to be some confusion in the marketplace so to clarify, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central—commonly referred to as Business Central—is an ERP solution that facilitates management of finances, sales and services, projects, operations, and supply chain, as well as offering extensive reporting and analytics.

Management of projects, finances, operations, sales and services, and supply chain as well as reporting and analytics for all of these are supported in Business Central.

Cloud and Web-Based System

Microsoft has designed Business Central to be an innovative ERP system that is in the cloud so you can have the freedom to work from any location on any device rather than at a centralized location, allowing you the opportunity to advance your business from any location. In addition, the feature of using an application via a web browser allows a user to multi-task and utilize the power of a browser.

Integration

Business Central is fully integrated with Office 365 and Teams so the system is not only accessible from any location, but also more efficient now that you no longer have to navigate between multiple applications and windows to complete tasks. For example, you can work jointly with others on customer records solely through a Teams chat or channel.

Better User Experience

Business Central aims to increase efficiency for users, so the desktop layout is designed to maximize screen space and make it easy for you navigate through the system with a prominent back button and a focus on the system commands in the center of the screen so that you can focus on all of Business Central’s features without hassle.

Flexibility

Microsoft has designed Business Central to enable you to build the platform that best fits your needs, allowing you to personalize your pages to only display information you want to see. Moreover, you can add ready-to-use apps from AppSource so that Business Central exemplifies anything your business needs to grow and become more efficient.
