Business Central Customization

Business Central customization is the process of tailoring the standard Microsoft ERP to fit your specific operational needs. While the base software is powerful on its own, every company has unique flows: specific ways of pricing, shipping, reporting, etc. Through Microsoft Dynamics customization, we develop extensions that sit on top of the base application and add the exact features your team needs without changing the software.

Standard features usually work for everyone, which means they don’t work perfectly for you. Customizing Dynamics 365 means you don’t have to do the manual workarounds or fill the gaps yourself. You can instead automate repetitive tasks and ensure your software supports proprietary processes rather than forcing you to change them.

Almost every corner of the system is open to Microsoft Dynamics customization, including core modules such as Finance, Sales, Purchasing, Inventory, and Manufacturing. Have questions about the specific modules you want to customize? Talk to us.

When customizing Dynamics 365, there are three main paths: No-code configuration, low-code automation, and AL development. With the no-code option, you can hide or move fields to clean up the interface. Low-code automation allows using the Power Platform to create simple alerts or mobile apps. AL development, on the other hand, involves writing professional code for extensions, complex business logic, unique reports, or industry-specific tools.

Of course. One of the requests we often receive with Microsoft Dynamics customization projects is connecting ERP to the rest of the tech stack. You can connect BC with other Microsoft systems (Outlook, Excel, and Power BI) and third-party systems, which are typically integrated via REST API/OData or certified ISV applications

No. Past ERP customizations made updates difficult, but with modern Business Central customization, we use an “extension” model, which means that custom code lives in a separate layer from the core Microsoft software. Once Microsoft rolls out its bi-annual update, your customizations will remain intact and continue to function without an issue.

The customization timeline depends on the complexity of your requirements. For example, a simple, no-code interface cleanup or a basic report may take a few days, while a deep Microsoft Dynamics customization with third-party integrations could take several weeks. We recommend starting with a discovery call or an intro call to define the scope. Sounds like something you need? Request an intro call.
