Tecman Talks Dynamics

Reporting in Business Central is far more advanced than many users realise. Older challenges such as complex RDLC layouts, unclear data structures and dependence on partners have been replaced with significantly more powerful and user-friendly tools. Modern capabilities include Analyse Mode for fast, flexible, drilldown analysis and Copilot supported view creation, reducing the effort required to extract meaningful insights. Excel report layouts offer a straightforward way to build clear, professional reports using familiar formatting tools, removing the need for specialist design skills. In this episode of Tecman Talk’s Dynamics, we discuss Business Central’s reporting landscape, helping users understand current capabilities, how to avoid common mistakes and make better use of the tools already available. Offering practical insight for anyone seeking more accurate, efficient and meaningful reporting from their Business Central data. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
