Frequently Asked Questions
Helping you understand how we can support your business.
What does Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central actually do for a small or mid-sized business?
Dynamics 365 Business Central is a cloud-based ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) platform that connects all the core parts of your business (finance, purchasing, sales, warehousing, projects, and manufacturing) into a single unified system. Rather than juggling multiple disconnected spreadsheets or software tools, Business Central gives you real-time visibility across every function so you can make faster, better-informed decisions. It's built specifically to scale with growing businesses, and because it's part of the Microsoft ecosystem, it integrates seamlessly with tools like Outlook, Excel, and Teams that your team already uses every day.
How long does it typically take to implement Dynamics 365 Business Central and what does the process look like?
Implementation timelines vary depending on the size and complexity of your organisation, but most small to mid-sized businesses can expect a structured process that includes a discovery phase, data migration, configuration, user training, and a managed go-live. Creative Computing follows a proven implementation methodology that reduces risk and keeps your project on track. Many clients are live within a matter of months, and our team supports you beyond go-live to make sure you get the most out of the system from day one.
Can Dynamics 365 Business Central replace our existing accounting software, or does it need to run alongside it?
Business Central is a complete financial management solution, so for most businesses it fully replaces standalone accounting software like Sage or Xero. It handles everything from general ledger, accounts payable and receivable, bank reconciliation, and budgeting through to multi-currency and multi-company reporting. Because it goes beyond pure accounting into areas like inventory, purchasing, projects, and sales, most organisations find they can consolidate several systems into one, reducing costs and eliminating the manual data re-entry that comes with running siloed tools.
Does Dynamics 365 Business Central work for businesses that operate across multiple countries or currencies?
Yes, Business Central has strong multinational capabilities built in. You can manage multiple legal entities, operate in multiple currencies, and meet the localisation requirements for legal and fiscal reporting across many countries. This makes it a popular choice for businesses that have expanded internationally or are planning to do so, as the same platform can scale to support your global operations without needing to move to a different system.
We're currently using spreadsheets to manage our finances and operations. Is Business Central too complex for a company our size?
Business Central is designed to be approachable for businesses of all sizes, and it's one of the reasons over 45,000 companies worldwide rely on it. The interface is intuitive and familiar if your team already uses Microsoft products, and the system can be configured to match your specific workflows rather than forcing you to adapt to rigid processes. Creative Computing works closely with each client to ensure the system is set up in a way that makes sense for how you work, and provides training and ongoing support so your team feels confident from the start.
