What’s New in Business Central Version 29.0

by Sam Power on

Business Central Version 29.0 introduces some handy improvements aimed at making everyday working life a little easier. Here are two areas we're particularly interested in.

A More Connected Copilot Experience

Copilot Chat in Business Central is being redesigned to provide a more connected experience across Microsoft applications.

Rather than focusing solely on information within Business Central, the unified Copilot experience can bring together information from different sources:

  • Business Central: Customers, vendors, orders and other business data
  • The web: Relevant external information
  • Microsoft 365: Work information available through Microsoft 365 Copilot capabilities

This helps make Copilot a more useful starting point for finding information, reducing the need to move between Business Central, Microsoft 365 and other sources to get the answers you need.

 

Better Financial Reporting & Easier PDF Packs

Version 29.0 also brings improvements aimed at making financial reporting easier to manage.

Combine Financial Reports into One PDF

Bring multiple financial reports together into one PDF, reducing the manual work involved in preparing reporting packs.

Bookmark frequently used views

Save commonly used list views and analysis tabs so they're easier to return to.

Better Visibility of G/L Accounts

Improved visibility of where G/L accounts are being used across financial reports makes it easier to understand and maintain your reporting setup.

The takeaway

From finding information with Copilot to preparing financial reports, these improvements share a common goal: making Business Central easier to navigate while reducing some of the manual work that happens outside the system.
