Program Overview: What is Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Functional Consultant?
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Functional Consultant is Edstellar's instructor-led program for consultants and power users implementing Business Central for small and mid-sized businesses. It covers the platform, financial management, sales, purchasing, inventory, warehouse, manufacturing basics, approvals, and reporting. Participants learn to configure Business Central to match how a real business actually runs.
Training is scenario-driven, with participants configuring a live Business Central tenant across every module. Each session pairs guided configuration with implementation exercises: chart of accounts, sales and purchasing flows, inventory control, approvals, and reports. Instructors review each configuration, flagging the shortcuts that break during real go-lives. The program closes with a capstone where participants deliver an end-to-end implementation scenario for a model company.
Business Central implementations stumble when consultants configure the software without understanding the business process underneath. This program bridges that gap: finance flows, supply chain logic, and approval discipline, all mapped into Business Central the right way. The result is consultants who can run workshops, make design decisions, and deliver go-lives that stick.
The final test is the End-to-End Implementation Scenario capstone: a complete Business Central setup for a model company, from financials through sales, purchasing, and inventory to reporting, configured by the participant and walked through as a client demo.
The capstone brings it home: your team configures a sample company end to end, runs a full business cycle from purchase to sale, and presents its setup decisions for structured instructor feedback. You leave with reusable artifacts: configuration checklists, posting group maps, and workflow templates your implementation team can use from day one.

- Step 04
