Is Your ERP Fueling AI or Holding It Back?

Join us for a webinar about why AI stalls before it reaches core finance and operations work, and what you can do about it using your ERP.

Most companies trying to put AI to work in finance and operations run into the same wall, and it is not the AI. Data sits in separate systems, so whatever AI you point at it ends up guessing rather than knowing. That is why month-end close still takes a week, the reporting pack still gets assembled by hand, and growth still costs you headcount.

In this webinar, you will learn where your platform sits between fueling AI and getting in its way, what you can do about it without replatforming, and what a move to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central takes.

What We Cover

• Four things that stop AI at the ERP boundary, and how to tell which ones apply to you.
• What a spreadsheet-driven close costs you every month, and how much of that time is recoverable.
• A recorded look at Business Central agents posting real transactions in the ledger rather than drafting them
• Four moves you can make on your current platform, plus an honest read on where they stop
• A migration path, the six drivers that set the total cost of the investment, and the customization decisions that determine the cost

We will close with a realistic view of the first 90 days and the first 12 months after a Business Central migration, along with a live Q&A. You’ll walk away with three takeaways you can act on within a week.

Every attendee will also get our eight-question ERP AI readiness assessment, which scores your system against three readiness states and identifies the gaps to close first.
