What’s new in Business Central 2026 - Release Wave 1
On April 22, we took customers and partners through the Business Central 2026 Release Wave 1 during an online webinar. In this session, we provided a clear overview of the main innovations and demonstrated what this release concretely means for daily practice.
No technical deep dive, but a practical reflection on the most relevant improvements, with special attention to AI, automation, and efficiency in finance and operations.
What was offered
During the webinar, we focused on, among other things:
- The main functional improvements in Dynamics 365 Business Central 2026 Release Wave 1
- The role of AI and agents in smarter automation of daily processes
- Updates that have a direct impact on finance, supply chain, and operational workflows
- What you can already utilize and which changes require more preparation
- How Microsoft is gradually working towards a more AI-driven ERP environment
The focus was always on the question: what do you notice here as an organization today and what should you consider for the future?

- Finance and operations professionals who want to work more efficiently
