What is Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central?
One connected cloud platform for finance, sales, operations and more — the modern ERP for growing businesses, and the foundation of everything we do.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is a cloud-based ERP solution that brings the core of your business — finance, sales, service, purchasing, inventory, operations and reporting — into a single, connected platform. It's the modern successor to Microsoft Dynamics NAV (Navision), designed for small and mid-sized businesses that have outgrown disconnected tools and want one system that grows with them.
Because it's part of the Microsoft ecosystem, Business Central works naturally with the tools your team already uses — Outlook, Excel, Teams and Power BI — and extends cleanly with custom modules and industry solutions like LS Central for retail.
