Summary

In this chapter, we explored the seamless integration of Power Automate approvals with Business Central. We learned that setting up and configuring these is quick and requires minimal time and effort. While it is easy to set up, the integration provides a robust and efficient approvals engine to use for not only purchase orders but other workflows as well.

We walked through the step-by-step instructions for configuring your Office, Power Automate, and Business Central environments. We also looked at how to set up a purchase order approval workflow. Finally, we identified some common troubleshooting tips for you to use when doing approvals.

In the next chapter, we will explore connecting Power BI to your Business Central environment. We’ll explore how to enable Power BI reports inside of Business Central and then learn about data modeling to get your data out of Business Central so that you can create powerful dashboards using Power BI.
