Sales up 15%, invoice pile up 15%, and another AP req on the CFO’s desk. In a legacy ERP, accounts payable capacity is measured in people, so growth keeps costing headcount. APQC puts the gap between top and bottom AP performers at more than 2x per $1,000 of revenue.

Our latest blog walks through what changes when Dynamics 365 reads and drafts the invoices and your team reviews instead of keys. How many invoices does each person on your AP team handle today versus three years ago?

If your team is running GP, NAV, AX, Sage, or QuickBooks on a platform that’s falling out of support, maintaining custom integrations by hand, and holding together a system nobody fully documented, the problem may not be your IT team. It may be the ERP underneath it.

This guide names six ways an aging ERP puts risk on IT, backs each one with independent research, and maps it to the Dynamics 365 capability that solves it.

Our team went back through five NAV-to-Business Central projects, from Collins Equipment to Crimson W**e Group, and the pattern was hard to miss. Most cutovers fit inside a single weekend, and teams were back to business as usual on Monday.

Heathrow Scientific cut order processing time by 20%. MWS Wire saves its accounting team 10-20 hours a week. If you are still on NAV, which part of the move worries you most?

Every warehouse has SKUs everyone knows are wrong. The count fixes the number for a few weeks, then the drift starts again, because the record is still being written after the goods move.

Our latest piece looks at where phantom inventory actually comes from, what it costs you in shorts and backorders, and what Dynamics 365 changes: the item ledger posting quantity and location on every transaction, counting periods by item, and cycle counting work that runs without blocking on-hand stock.

Worth reading before the next wall-to-wall count. How many hours did your last full count cost you?

Every manufacturing IT team has that one person who knows why the shipping interface has an exception in it. Deloitte found 69% to 72% of manufacturers struggle to hire across IT, OT, data, and security roles, which means the answer to key-person risk is not a job posting.

Our latest piece looks at what changes when ERP work runs on low-code skills you can actually hire for, and which Copilot capabilities are shipping today versus still in preview.

How many people at your company could take that call?
