Business value
Copilot is the AI-powered assistant for work that boosts creativity and improves productivity for Business Central users.
Copilot helps you reduce the time it takes to identify trends and anomalies in your business data. You can express your analysis as a simple sentence without ever leaving Business Central.
By describing how you want to structure your data analysis, such as "show me vendors by location sorted by amount of purchases," you quickly get insights instead of spending time on the clicks and keystrokes needed to construct analysis views. This feature helps you make informed decisions and take action based on the insights you gain from your data. For example, use this feature to identify which vendors supply each of your warehouses. Then, take steps to optimize your supply chain or negotiate better deals with your vendors.
Feature details
Available in preview with update 24.0:
Start from any list in Business Central and put Copilot to work by providing keywords or a description. Indicate the columns, groups, pivots, filters, or sorting that you want to use to present fields from the table. Copilot uses AI to understand your desired layout and drafts a new analysis tab. You can also provide this information when the list is already in analysis mode.
Refine the generated analysis tab by providing more keywords. Go back and forth through your prompts before choosing the ideal layout.
Accept a suggested name from Copilot for your new analysis tab.
You can access this feature from the specific list page that you want to analyze. Copilot works with most fields that the list page already has, including summing up totals. Copilot can't add fields from the source table or correlate data across tables.
Available with update 24.2:
- Environments localized to Canada.
- Business Central users in a language other than English.
Note
- You can use this feature as a production-ready preview for production and sandbox environments in any country localization. Production-ready previews are subject to supplemental terms of use. For more information, see Supplemental terms of use for Dynamics 365 preview.
