Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central + Insight Works = Manufacturing and Distribution Optimization

The truth is that no ERP software system, right out of the box, will give you 100% of the functionality you’re probably looking for. That’s true for even a best-in-class solution like Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (BC). It might take you within 5 or 10 yards of your goal. But what are your options for…

Crossing the Finish Line

As a manufacturer or distributor, there are 3 options for rounding out your Business Central ERP. We could rank them good, better, best. Or, more to the point, not recommended, recommended, highly recommended.

  1. Customization (not recommended) – Customization requires changes to the underlying code. This path is generally viewed as dangerous. Messing with code should be seen as a last resort. And should you choose to do that, you should be aware that code changes will make upgrades more difficult and, therefore more expensive.
  2. Configuration (recommended) – Configurations do not require code changes. They’re easy to implement, especially because Business Central is highly configurable. Minor changes accomplished in this manner may take you across the finish line. And the Bond Consulting Services (BCS) team has the experience and expertise to get you there.
  3. 3rd Party ISV Solutions (highly recommended) – Generally speaking, the addition of a 3rd party solution to your Business Central system is your best option. That’s especially true if the ISV (Independent Software Vendor) in question offers solutions that are specifically designed for your ERP system. That is the case with Insight Works. And that’s why we’re excited to tell you all about it.
