Finance to the shop floor, working from the same numbers
When your data flows freely between departments, everything improves. Month-end close is faster because your accounts reconcile automatically. Forecasts are more accurate because they draw on live purchasing and inventory data, and decisions are more confident because your dashboards reflect what is happening right now, not what happened last week.
Built-in Power BI reporting, seamless Microsoft 365 integration and compliance with UK financial regulations mean your team spends less time chasing information and more time acting on it.
Take Control of Your Business Finances
Strengthen financial control and visibility
Manage your general ledger, cash flow and budgets in one place with complete visibility. Automate routine accounting tasks and reduce manual effort while maintaining accuracy across your financial processes.
Stay on top of cash flow and reporting
Track income, expenses and financial performance in real time. Generate reports quickly and gain clear insight into how your business is performing at any point in time.
Make confident financial decisions
Access up-to-date financial data across your organisation to support better planning and control. See more about Microsoft Dynamics 365 to understand how it supports wider business management.
From Quote to Invoice, Without the Gaps
Manage sales from quote to invoice
Create quotes, confirm orders and generate invoices within one connected system. Ensure pricing, discounts and customer details are applied consistently while reducing manual entry across your sales process.
Improve order accuracy and fulfilment
Connect sales with inventory and availability to reduce errors and delays. Give your team full visibility of stock levels and delivery timelines so orders are processed correctly and fulfilled on time.
Keep sales and financial data aligned
Ensure every order flows directly into your financial records without duplication or delay. Maintain accurate customer data and transaction history in one place using Microsoft Dynamics 365, with a consistent view across your business.
Inventory Management and Purchasing Software for UK Businesses
Real-time stock visibility, across every location
Business Central's inventory management tools track stock levels across warehouses, bins and locations as transactions happen, not after a manual count. Your team always knows what is available, what is reserved and what is incoming, without chasing spreadsheets or phoning the warehouse.
Purchase order management built around your suppliers
Raise, approve and track purchase orders with full visibility of supplier lead times and delivery performance. Goods received are matched and recorded automatically, so purchasing stays accurate without extra admin.
Demand forecasting to keep supply and demand balanced
Use historical demand and current stock levels to plan replenishment before shortages happen, and to avoid tying up cash in excess inventory. For businesses that need barcode scanning, licence plating or advanced picking on top of this, our Warehouse Management for Business Central add-on extends these same inventory tools onto the warehouse floor.
Control Manufacturing from Planning to Output
Plan production based on real demand
Use sales orders, forecasts and stock levels to plan what needs to be produced and when. Ensure materials are available before production begins to avoid delays and disruption.
Manage materials and production processes
Define bills of materials and production routes to control how goods are made. Track consumption of components and monitor work in progress as items move through each stage of production.
Turn materials into finished goods with full visibility
Record output, update inventory automatically and maintain accurate stock levels as production completes. Keep operations aligned from raw materials through to finished products using Microsoft Dynamics 365.
Production planning, connected to stock
Manage Projects and Deliver Profitably
Keep projects financially on track
Track project costs, time and billing in one place with full visibility. Use timesheets and job costing to manage budgets and maintain control over project profitability.
Plan and allocate resources effectively
Schedule people and resources based on availability and workload. Balance capacity across projects and keep delivery aligned with timelines and expectations.
Monitor project performance in real time
Stay up to date with live insights into project progress, costs and outcomes. Make informed decisions using up-to-date data across your business with Microsoft Dynamics 365.
Power BI Reporting and Real-Time Analytics, Built In
Access up-to-date business data
View financial, operational and sales data in real time from a single system. Ensure everyone works from the same accurate information across the business.
