Get Ready for Dynamics 365 Business Central 2025 Wave 2 (BC27): Smarter, Faster, More Connected

Business Central 2025 Release Wave 2 (BC27) will be released between October 2025 and March 2026, with general availability beginning October 1, 2025. This release offers features for intelligent automation, AI-driven productivity, enhanced e-document workflows, fintech-friendly extensibility, compliance tools, and refined quality controls.

Here are some standout features that will empower both users and developers to achieve more with less effort:

Connect AI agents to Business Central through MCP server

The new release of Business Central supports the use of a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server to connect AI agents directly to Business Central. By enabling this feature, Business Central allows AI agents (such as those created via Microsoft Copilot Studio or other intelligent agents built on an AI platform that supports the MCP protocol) to interact with the system’s business logic, data, and APIs in a streamlined, secure way, helping automate tasks and retrieve contextual insights.

This is part of a broader initiative in BC27 to enhance Business Central with AI- and Copilot-driven features, aimed at improving productivity for users and administrators.

Find pages and reports with advanced Tell Me search

The new advanced Tell Me search helps users locate pages and reports even when they don’t remember the exact names. It interprets the semantic meaning, not just exact keyword matches, by evaluating multiple properties and related terms to rank relevant results.

Use the Sales Order Agent to automate sales order-taking

This release introduces the Sales Order Agent, a powerful Copilot-based autonomous agent designed to revolutionize the processing of sales orders. It works by:

• Monitoring a shared company email mailbox for incoming customer order requests.
• Identifying the customer, drafting quotes, verifying item availability, sending quotes, capturing confirmations, converting them to orders, and sending confirmations back—all with minimal human oversight.
• Log its actions transparently via the Copilot pane and task timeline so users always have visibility and control over the process.

Beyond automation, BC27 enhances the Sales Order Agent with advanced capabilities, including handling multiple ship-to addresses, suggesting delivery alternatives, and providing richer, natural-language instructions for more nuanced autonomy.

Use enhanced chat with Copilot

Building on earlier enhancements, Business Central 2025 Wave 2 expands the chat experience with Copilot, embedding AI-powered guidance directly into the user interface. These enhancements make support more contextual and conversational, whether you’re navigating unfamiliar pages, exploring new features, or seeking instant how-to help, all without leaving your workflow.

Use the E-Documents Framework with Power Automate and other solutions

Business Central 2025 Wave 2 allows users to share e-documents with other applications and services. This release supports integration with Power Automate to utilize additional Power Platform functionality. With this release, you can send, receive, and transfer e-documents to various applications. These capabilities expand workflow automation and redundancy, empowering broader integrations and compliance-ready processes.

Extend Copilot autofill using AL

Developers gain the ability to extend Copilot’s autofill functionality using AL code. This opens the door to custom autofill logic tailored to your unique business processes, enhancing user productivity and data accuracy.

Print the Audit Trail report

Visibility, auditability, and transparency are key to compliance and trust. Business Central 2025 Wave 2 introduces the ability for users to print the Audit Trail report, providing a formal, printable document that details transaction history and changes across the system. It’s a small yet powerful tool for regulators, auditors, and internal accountability.

Evaluate quality of incoming goods and materials

To tighten supply chain integrity, BC27 enables users to assess the quality of incoming goods and materials during procurement and warehouse processes. Quality checkpoints can now be built into receipt flows, supporting better decisions, fewer errors, and higher product standards, especially critical for manufacturing, retail, and distribution businesses.

And more

• Excise tax framework – Automate excise tax calculations based on regional rules, reducing manual error risk.
• IRS 1099 electronic submission – U.S. users can now submit 1099 forms directly through IRIS integration, streamlining compliance.
• Enhanced financial reporting – Schedule reports via email or report inbox using auto-fill fields, Excel-based editing, and dynamic column headings.
• Summarize with Copilot – Users can let Copilot summarize data in a record into a couple of brief sentences.

Why BC27 Matters

Dynamics 365 Business Central 2025 Wave 2 (BC27) delivers a smarter, more automated Business Central—one that amplifies AI where it matters and gives both users and developers the tools to elevate processes, compliance, and user experience. With intelligent agents, customizable AI behaviors, enhanced data workflows, and tighter controls, BC27 is shaping up to be one of the most exciting releases yet.
