DynamicsCon 2026: See FP&A for Microsoft Dynamics 365 in Action

Written by Karen Barak | May 5, 2026

DynamicsCon 2026 brings together thousands of Microsoft Dynamics users, partners, and implementers in Las Vegas this May, and Solver will be there at Booth #216 in the Royal Ballroom of the Fontainebleau.

The booth theme this year is Unleash the X Factor with xFP&A, and it highlights something finance teams running Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations are genuinely wrestling with: how do you get more out of your financial data without adding more headcount or more manual processes?

That's the conversation we're there to have.

What's Happening at Booth #216

If you want a focused conversation about a specific planning or reporting challenge in your Dynamics environment, stop by and let's talk.

Why xFP&A Is the Conversation Finance Teams Are Having Right Now

For years, financial planning and analysis lived inside the finance department. The numbers went in, the reports came out, and everyone else waited. That model worked when decisions moved slowly. It doesn't work anymore.

Extended FP&A, or xFP&A, is the practice of extending planning, reporting, and analytical capability to the people who actually drive the business: operations managers, sales leaders, HR, and supply chain teams. Instead of a centralized finance team producing static reports for everyone else, xFP&A gives individual departments access to the same financial context and planning tools, inside a structure that keeps data consistent and controls intact.

For organizations running Microsoft Dynamics 365 ERPs, this means connecting ERP data to a planning and reporting layer that's flexible enough for every department but consistent enough to trust. That's what Solver is built to do.

The Shift Finance Leaders Are Navigating

Finance teams are hearing a version of the same story right now: headcount isn't growing as fast as the volume of questions finance receives. Business partners want more granular analysis. The budget cycle keeps compressing. And the expectation that finance will produce meaningful forward-looking insight, not just historical summaries, keeps rising.

xFP&A addresses the structural bottleneck that comes with routing everything through a centralized team. When department leads have access to planning tools connected to your ERP data, they can run their own variance analysis, work through their own what-if scenarios, and come to finance with better questions rather than basic ones.

The net effect: finance spends less time producing reports and more time interpreting them. That's a different operating model, and it's the one more Dynamics teams are adopting.

Why This Matters for Teams in the Dynamics Ecosystem

Solver's QuickStart integration is designed specifically for organizations running Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. It's not a generic FP&A platform with a connector bolted on. The templates, integration architecture, and planning models are built around the way Microsoft Dynamics 365 data is structured.

That specificity matters when you're trying to get a planning process off the ground quickly. For teams still on Dynamics GP that are considering a migration path, this provides continuity on the reporting and planning side while the ERP transition happens underneath. It's a concern we hear frequently at ecosystems events where GP users are actively weighing their options.
