Business Central with Power Platform - more than ERP solution

For decades we used Dynamics NAV for enterprise resource planning operations. We could extend standard NAV functionalities, making customizations in NAV or developing integrations with some other e-commerce solutions. But common word in both of cases was “development”.
After releasing Business Central and other business apps as i.e. Power Platform, we can see many new possibilities of integrations with other systems are either on-prem or in the cloud as well as other models of extending standard features.
In this session, you will learn about the latest features and technologies which allow users to extend Business Central functionalities and integrate it with solutions for customer engagement, business intelligence, human resource… Using various available services from Power Platform and Azure we will show you the way how to extend Business Central beyond its limits. We will show you how effectively to use Flow, LogicApps, Power BI, Canvas PowerApps and even making model driven PowerApps with Business Central, bringing Business Central to the CDS! Of course, we will explain how to do it as well as when and why to do it.
