Microsoft D365 Business Central integration for control over your Source-to-Pay process
Automate invoice processing, strengthen financial control and keep your ERP data synchronised in real time. ISPnext integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, in both cloud and on-premise environments.
Microsoft D365 Business Central integration
Microsoft D365 Business Central integration for real time financial control
While Business Central remains the leading system for master data and financial postings, ISPnext strengthens the entire Source-to-Pay chain with automation, accuracy and real time insight. Supplier data, orders, receipts, invoices and postings are synchronised automatically. This reduces manual work, prevents errors and gives finance immediate visibility into liabilities, approvals and cash flow, without compromising on governance, audit trail or ERP ownership.
A Microsoft D365 Business Central integration can be deployed with both the cloud and the on-premise version of Business Central. In the cloud environment, the connection runs through modern APIs secured with OAuth 2.0, while on-premise environments use local endpoints. In both cases, Business Central remains the stable ERP foundation, while ISPnext automates the Source-to-Pay process.
