As part of the summer wave of Microsoft updates, and insights from Tech Days 2025 in Antwerp, Business Central continues to evolve with a strong focus on AI integration, automation, testing, and performance scalability.

• Now supports custom extensions, so business logic, processes, and internal documentation can be embedded directly into the experience

Why it matters:
Reduce support tickets, standardize user actions, and embed knowledge at the point of use.
