Budget discrepancies in construction projects are often noticed late — because the total figure masks the problem. When a work-based cost breakdown structure (WBS) is correctly established, the specific item and construction site where the discrepancy occurred can be identified before the project is completed. This article discusses how to set up a WBS, its relationship to items, and three common mistakes.

We hear the question on the cover every day in the field: "Does Business Central work in Türkiye?" The answer is yes, with the right localization layer. As you scroll, you'll see 11 improvements — from withholding tax to four currency types and long/short-term expense allocation — that aren't built into the standard product but are needed every month in Türkiye. Which one is causing you the most time loss in your process? Let us know in the comments, and we'll detail that feature in the next post.

Construction ERP software is an integrated management solution that brings together a construction or contracting company's processes for progress payments, quantity surveying, cost estimation, subcontractors, construction sites, procurement, and finance in a single system. Navappro is a construction ERP solution developed on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central: it combines the finance and project backbone of a global ERP platform with the unique processes of the Turkish construction sector on the same data.

Business Central offers a robust infrastructure for construction accounting, cost tracking, and revenue monitoring for long-term contracts, but it cannot single-handedly meet the specific processes of the Turkish construction sector, such as progress payments, quantity surveying, green book management, subcontractor contracts, consumption, and e-transformation. This depth comes with the Navappro vertical solution, which is built on top of Business Central. Therefore, the correct question shouldn't be "Is Business Central suitable for construction?", but rather "Which construction solution should I use Business Central with?". In this article, we explain which solutions Business Central's core features offer, what it lacks for the construction sector, and what solutions are necessary for the construction industry.

In the modern business world, one of the first concepts that every company aiming for growth, optimizing operational processes, and bridging the gap between departments encounters is ERP. So, what exactly does this magical three-letter term mean? Whether you are a small-scale SME or a global holding company with hundreds of employees, investing in the right ERP system is the most critical building block of your company's digital transformation.

Construction ERP software is a program that manages a construction or contracting company's progress payments, quantity surveying, subcontractors, construction sites, procurement, accounting, finance, inventory management, and cost processes in a single system.

A progress payment is a payment document issued to a contractor for a construction project under a signed contract, allowing them to receive payment for work completed at specific intervals. It is usually prepared monthly and calculated by subtracting the previous progress payment from the cumulative total of work completed from the beginning of the project to that date. The preparation involves assembling quantity surveying, attachments, green book documents, summary reports, and deduction calculations in a specific order. This guide explains the process step-by-step, with examples from the field.

In the modern business world, data-driven decision-making is a key to companies' survival and competitive advantage. However, many companies still have to wait for end-of-month reports to monitor their financial performance. Manually prepared Excel spreadsheets are prone to human error and, because they present historical data, make it difficult to make instantaneous strategic decisions.

In today's business world, agility, data security, and AI integration are no longer luxuries, but fundamental requirements for operational sustainability. Microsoft Dynamics NAV (Navision), which for years formed the backbone of many companies, has been completely replaced by Dynamics 365 Business Central, a redesigned cloud architecture. So, what does migrating from your on-premise system to Microsoft's secure cloud ecosystem mean for your company? What are the risks involved in this transition, and are the advantages worth the investment? Here is our comprehensive migration guide for corporate decision-makers.

Payroll is one of the processes with the least room for error in a business. An incorrectly calculated social security contribution or a late employee registration directly affects both employee satisfaction and the company's legal compliance. Therefore, managing payroll, accounting, and human resources data in the same place, within a single system, provides a significant advantage. Microsoft's enterprise ERP solution, Dynamics 365 Business Central, is one of the leading platforms offering this integrated structure.

In the ERP world, "artificial intelligence" has long been a topic of discussion, often reduced to a suggestion box: it would write you a draft, provide a prediction, and you would do the rest. Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central's new generation of AI agents is changing this logic. Now, it's not about suggestions, it's about doing the work itself. From processing incoming orders to recording supplier invoices, AI-based agents are involved from start to finish in workflows, reducing manual labor, increasing accuracy, and enabling teams to move faster. This article examines each of the AI ​​agents officially introduced by Business Central.
