Power BI Reporting in Business Central

Aleia and I will show attendees how easy to get insights into Business Central data with Power BI. We will do live demos to show how Power BI retrieves Business Central data to build dashboards and reports as well as how to customise the visualisation, and merge data from different companies.
Another feature we will demonstrate is the ability for Power BI reports to be embedded in Business Central and viewed without leaving the system.
Business Central publishes three apps for Power BI on Microsoft AppSource. We will show these apps can create detailed reports and dashboards in Power BI service for viewing Business Central data.
Available apps include:
Dynamics 365 Business Central - CRM
Dynamics 365 Business Central - Finance
Dynamics 365 Business Central - Sales

Page Scripting Tool for Acceptance Testing

Aleia and I will show how the page scripting tool in the Business Central web client lets users record interactions with the user interface (UI), such as opening pages, selecting actions and filling in fields.
We would like to show how users can then replay the recording to show the exact actions in the UI and as the recording is replayed, how you receive real-time status feedback for success or failure.

The Shopify Business Central Relationship

Microsoft’s controversial release of Dynamics 365 Business Central with Shopify integration as standard, ruffled a few feathers in the industry. As a Solution Architect/Consultant, this was great news - in this presentation I will show the audience, exactly how this works & why this integration is a fantastic opportunity to deliver turnkey projects with little or no code.
We will show how the integration process works & how the data flows to or from Shopify. We will share top tips & lessons learned when deciding on what Shopify settings to use to achieve the best results.
We will also cover other external functionality that could enhance the integration user experience.
