Now I’m amazing at explaining it, but check out the video below for a quick explanation from Microsoft themselves. It can even bring in a good amount of historic data as well so you can look at some trends. It takes the data from your legacy system, makes a copy of it, and uploads it to an instance of Business Central. They call this step the “Intelligent Edge” and in the most basic terms, it is a data replicator. With that in mind, they created a sort of stepping stone to give customers a taste of what it is like to work in Dynamics BC with the data they are using every day. They know that moving off their legacy systems (SL, GP, & NAV) is not an easy decision for most people. To show how easy Microsoft is making the move to the cloud with their latest offering Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, but please, call it Dynamics BC. What about the years and years (and years and years) of data that has been accumulated over the history of the business? I’m glad you asked because that is the entire purpose of this blog.

What they often don’t realize, however, is that the move to the cloud not only takes away the need for the above-mentioned services but also saves the business both money and manhours in operation alone. Their system (mostly) works and they are used to spending money on IT services, emergency backups, and hardware upgrades. So it is understandable when we talk to customers that say they don’t want to move off of it. The software is well established, tested, and proven.

Since its inception in 1986 as a DOS-based accounting software, Dynamics Great Plain (or now known as Dynamics GP) has been a mainstay in the accounting world.
