What is a Business Central integration for FP&A software?

A Business Central integration for FP&A software connects Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central to Solver, FP&A software built for extended financial planning and analysis (xFP&A). Solver uses this connection to bring Dynamics 365 Business Central data into one cloud platform for planning, reporting, consolidation, and analysis, so finance and operational leaders work from a single source of truth.

How is Solver different from Excel for Business Central reporting?

Solver keeps the Excel design experience your team knows but removes the manual work around it. Reports and budget forms connect to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central data instead of exported files, budget input moves through automated workflow and approvals, and audit controls track every change. Business users view reports through a web portal, which ends version confusion across emailed workbooks.

What Business Central data can Solver report on?

Solver supports both general ledger and sub-ledger reports and dashboards for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. Because Solver includes a data warehouse that supports unlimited data sources, you can also combine Dynamics 365 Business Central data with operational and non-financial data for a complete view of performance across the organization.

How long does it take to implement Solver for Business Central?

QuickStart integrations and ready-to-use templates are built for rapid deployment, helping teams get up and running in days rather than months. Exact timelines depend on the number of entities, data sources, and custom models in scope. Your Solver team or implementation partner can confirm a timeline during scoping.

How does Solver Copilot AI help analyze Business Central data?

Solver Helps You Plan It.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is where your transactions live. The harder question is what those numbers mean for next quarter, and how quickly you can get that answer to the people who need it.

Solver connects Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central to a data warehouse that supports unlimited data sources, so financial and operational data sit together in one place. Your team models scenarios, builds forecasts, and delivers reports from the same current data, with every change tracked.
