Integration Spotlight: Microsoft Dynamics Business Central – The Key to a Fully Connected Retail Ecosystem

For growing retailers and brands, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is a powerful ERP solution, helping manage finance, inventory, orders, and supply chain operations. But to unlock its full potential, it needs to be fully integrated with your wider tech stack—from eCommerce platforms to WMS, CRM, finance tools and more.

Without efficient and consistent data flow between systems, businesses face manual data entry, inventory inaccuracies, and order processing delays—all of which slow down growth. That’s where Patchworks' iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) comes in, helping brands automate, connect, monitor and scale efficiently.

Why Integrate Microsoft Dynamics Business Central?

Business Central is a robust, cloud-based ERP, but it’s only as powerful as the systems it connects to. Without proper integration, brands often struggle with:

🚨 Inventory mismatches – Disconnected data leads to overselling and stockouts.
🚨 Manual order processing – Slow, error-prone workflows delay fulfillment.
🚨 Financial reporting gaps – Disjointed sales, tax, and revenue data impact decision-making.
🚨 Siloed customer data – Poor integration with CRM and eCommerce platforms results in missed opportunities.

By integrating Business Central, brands can:


Automate order and inventory updates between eCommerce and ERP.
Sync financial data in real time for accurate accounting and reporting.
Enhance fulfillment speed by connecting Business Central with WMS and 3PL providers.
Create a unified customer experience by linking CRM, marketing, and customer service tools.
