Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer a futuristic concept; it’s a practical tool that’s helping manufacturers and distributors work smarter, not harder. If you’re juggling tight margins, supply chain pressures, and rising expectations, AI in Business Central could be the edge you’ve been looking for.
Smarter decision-making with real-time insights
Business leaders need more than just data, you need insights. That’s where Copilot in Business Central steps in. Seamlessly integrated, Copilot transforms raw data into real-time, actionable intelligence that helps you act quickly and confidently:
- Forecast cash flow before it becomes a problem
- Spot inventory risks before they hit your bottom line
- Track performance trends without digging through spreadsheets
Copilot is a system feature built directly into Business Central that uses advanced AI to analyse your business data instantly, surfacing key patterns and predictions that empower faster, smarter decisions.
Why it matters:
- Real-time analysis: Make decisions based on what’s happening now, not last week.
- Predictive insights: Spot risks and opportunities before they become urgent.
- User-friendly: Designed for business leaders, you don’t have to be a data analyst.
Using Copilot in Business Central helps you move from reactive to proactive planning, giving you the confidence to lead with clarity.
Automating the mundane
Manual and repetitive processes slow you down, like invoice matching, bank reconciliation, and report generation.
Business Central’s AI capabilities automate these routine processes with speed and accuracy, freeing your finance and operations teams to focus on higher-value, strategic tasks like analysing trends, enhancing customer experiences, and driving meaningful growth.
By letting AI take care of the repetitive tasks, you’re streamlining operations and unlocking your team’s full potential.
Reducing risk and human error
By continuously monitoring your data, Copilot identifies unusual patterns and alerts you early. Whether it’s a missed invoice, a sudden dip in inventory, or a regulatory red flag, you’ll know about it before it escalates.
This proactive approach gives you more control, fewer disruptions, and the confidence to act quickly. It’s like having a built-in safety net for your operations, always on, always watching.
Built for the tools you already use
One of the biggest advantages of Copilot is how effortlessly it fits into the tools your team already uses every day, like Outlook, Excel, and Teams.
There’s no need to switch apps or learn new systems. Copilot brings insights, automation, and recommendations directly into your familiar Microsoft 365 environment.
Whether you're reviewing financials in Excel, collaborating in Teams, or managing communications in Outlook, Copilot is right there with you, streamlining tasks and surfacing data-driven suggestions in real time.
This seamless experience means faster adoption, better productivity, and smarter decision-making across your organisation.
Quick to deploy and easy to scale
Unlike traditional AI tools that require complex setup, custom integrations, or specialist skills, Copilot is built right into Business Central.
Why it’s different:
- No third-party tools or complicated onboarding.
- Designed for everyday users.
- Start using AI from the moment you log in.
With Copilot, AI becomes a natural part of your workflow, not something else to manage.
