Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (D365BC) is an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system from Microsoft. The product is part of the Microsoft Dynamics family, and shares the same codebase as NAV[1] and NAV's C/AL language is being phased out in favor of the new AL language.[2]
The product is primarily a web-based software as a service solution[buzzword] accessed via dynamics.com, though presently there is an on-premise version available, which included the option to use the NAV role-tailored 'thick' client through version 14, while versions 15 and later are web-only.
History[edit]
D365BC is primarily based on the codebase for Microsoft Dynamics NAV, first published as Navision, which Microsoft acquired in 2002.
In 2016, Microsoft announced the creation of Dynamics 365 — a rebranding of the suite of Dynamics ERP and CRM products as a part of a new online-only offering.[3] As a part of this suite, the successor to NAV was codenamed Madeira.[4]
In September 2017 at the Directions conference, Microsoft announced the new codename 'Tenerife' for this product, which would be released as 'Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations Business Edition', while the successor product to Dynamics AX would be called 'Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations Enterprise Edition'.[5]
On April 2, 2018, D365BC was released publicly[6] and plans for semi-annual releases were announced.[7]
Business Central is available in the cloud, on-premises, and in hybrid deployment.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (D365 BC) is a complete ERP from Microsoft for the SMB segment.
