When working with Business Central, you have multiple options for creating agents:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Full\u00a0Copilot Studio\u00a0agents with complete customization capabilities<\/li>\n<li>Lightweight experiences available in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dynamics.folio3.com\/microsoft-dynamics-365-copilot\/\">Microsoft 365 Copilot<\/a><\/strong> chat<\/li>\n<li>Advanced tooling for professional developers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All agents built in Copilot Studio leverage AI foundation models, use tools and knowledge to access data, and present user experiences through an intelligent orchestrator.<\/p>\n<h3>Connecting to Business Central Data<\/h3>\n<p>There are two primary methods for connecting your Copilot Studio agent to Business Central data:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Power Platform Connector: Connects directly to Business Central APIs<\/li>\n<li>MCP Server: Uses the Model Context Protocol to connect to Business Central APIs<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>What is the Model Context Protocol?<\/h3>\n<p>The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol that enables AI systems to communicate with business applications in a standardized way. This protocol simplifies the connection process, making it remarkably easy to integrate Business Central data into your agents.<\/p>\n<h2>Building Your First Agent: A Step-by-Step Example<\/h2>\n<p>Let&#8217;s walk through creating a laptop research agent that pulls data from Business Central.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 1: Configure Business Central<\/h3>\n<p>Before building your agent, you need to set up the MCP configuration in Business Central:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Navigate to the MCP Configurations page in Business Central<\/li>\n<li>Create a new configuration that exposes the Items API<\/li>\n<li>Set the configuration to read-only mode for security<\/li>\n<li>Activate the configuration<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>In this example, the Business Central environment contains laptop items categorized using an item category code called &#8220;laptop.&#8221; These items are set up as non-inventory items representing employee laptop options.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Create the Agent in Copilot Studio<\/h3>\n<p>Creating the agent is surprisingly straightforward:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open Copilot Studio and click the New Agent button<\/li>\n<li>Provide a description of your agent&#8217;s purpose<\/li>\n<li>Specify the data source and filtering criteria<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>For the laptop agent, the instructions specify:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The agent&#8217;s purpose: researching laptop options<\/li>\n<li>The data source: Business Central items<\/li>\n<li>The filter criteria: item category code equals &#8220;laptop&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dynamics.folio3.com\/blog\/how-ai-agents-redefine-finance-supply-chain-and-it-operations\/\"><strong>Copilot Studio<\/strong><\/a>&#8216;s built-in AI assistant processes this information and automatically builds the agent framework, suggesting appropriate options and configurations.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Add the Business Central Tool<\/h3>\n<p>To connect your agent to Business Central data:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Navigate to the tools section in your agent configuration<\/li>\n<li>Select the Microsoft Business Central MCP server from the Model Context Protocol tab<\/li>\n<li>Configure the connection by specifying:\n<ul>\n<li>Your Business Central environment<\/li>\n<li>The MCP configuration you created earlier<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>That&#8217;s all the configuration required. Your agent is now connected to live Business Central data.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4: Test and Publish<\/h3>\n<p>You can test your agent directly within Copilot Studio to ensure it&#8217;s working correctly. Once satisfied, publish it to your preferred channels:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Microsoft Teams<\/li>\n<li>Microsoft 365 Copilot<\/li>\n<li>Other supported platforms<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Using Your Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot<\/h2>\n<p>Once published to Microsoft 365 Copilot, your agent becomes immediately accessible:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open Microsoft 365 Copilot chat<\/li>\n<li>Select your laptop agent from the available agents<\/li>\n<li>Use predefined prompts or create custom queries<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Example Queries<\/h3>\n<p>The agent can handle various types of requests:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Predefined prompts: &#8220;Show me available laptops&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Specific inquiries: &#8220;What screen resolutions are available?&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Custom questions: &#8220;Which laptops are best suited for remote work?&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The agent intelligently combines data from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dynamics.folio3.com\/blog\/how-business-central-accounting-software-solves-mid-size-company-challenges\/\">Business Central<\/a>\u00a0with information from the internet to provide comprehensive responses, including detailed specifications for each laptop option.<\/p>\n<h2>Customizing Your Agent<\/h2>\n<p>As the agent author, you have full control over the experience:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Edit predefined prompts to match your organization&#8217;s needs<\/li>\n<li>Add custom prompts for common scenarios<\/li>\n<li>Adjust the agent&#8217;s instructions to refine its behavior<\/li>\n<li>Configure which Business Central data the agent can access<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Licensing and Cost Considerations<\/h2>\n<p>Understanding the licensing requirements is essential before deploying <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dynamics.folio3.com\/blog\/maximize-roi-with-microsoft-365-copilot-and-agent-365\/\">Copilot Studio agents<\/a><\/strong>:<\/p>\n<h3>What&#8217;s Included with Business Central<\/h3>\n<p>Your Business Central license includes access to certain Power Platform tools, but Copilot Studio requires additional licensing.<\/p>\n<h3>Copilot Studio Licensing<\/h3>\n<p>To use Copilot Studio, you need to purchase:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Credit packs for predictable usage<\/li>\n<li>Pay-as-you-go subscription for flexible consumption<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Copilot Studio operates on a usage-based model, which means costs scale with actual consumption rather than user counts.<\/p>\n<h3>User Licensing<\/h3>\n<p>An important advantage: you don&#8217;t need additional paid user licenses for people using your agents. Users consume the credits from your organization&#8217;s credit pool, making it cost-effective to share agents broadly across your organization.<\/p>\n<h2>Best Practices for Agent Development<\/h2>\n<p>When building agents for Business Central, consider these recommendations:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Start simple:<\/strong>\u00a0Begin with read-only access to a single entity, like the Items table, before expanding to more complex scenarios.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use clear instructions:<\/strong>\u00a0The more specific your agent description and instructions, the better the AI can understand and fulfill user requests.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Leverage MCP configurations:<\/strong>\u00a0Set up multiple MCP configurations for different use cases, each with appropriate security settings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Test thoroughly:<\/strong>\u00a0Use Copilot Studio&#8217;s testing environment to validate agent responses before publishing to production channels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Monitor usage:<\/strong>\u00a0Track credit consumption to understand usage patterns and optimize costs.<\/p>\n<h2>Real-World Applications<\/h2>\n<p>Beyond laptop research, Business Central agents can serve numerous business functions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Customer service: Answering questions about order status, inventory availability, or account information<\/li>\n<li>Sales support: Providing product information, pricing, and availability to sales teams<\/li>\n<li>Procurement: Helping employees find and request approved vendors or items<\/li>\n<li>Financial inquiries: Answering questions about budgets, expenses, or financial reports<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Getting Started<\/h2>\n<p>Building a custom agent in <a href=\"https:\/\/erpsoftwareblog.com\/2025\/11\/how-ai-and-copilot-are-changing-business-central-development\/\">Microsoft Copilot Studio for Business Central<\/a> is remarkably accessible, even for users without extensive development experience. The combination of AI-powered agent building, the standardized Model Context Protocol, and Business Central&#8217;s robust API infrastructure makes it possible to create powerful conversational experiences in minutes rather than days.<\/p>\n<p>The key is to start with a clear use case, configure your Business Central environment properly, and leverage Copilot Studio&#8217;s intuitive interface to bring your agent to life. As you become more comfortable with the platform, you can expand your agents&#8217; capabilities and create increasingly sophisticated experiences for your users.<\/p>\n<p>For organizations already using Business Central, Copilot Studio agents represent a powerful way to make business data more accessible and actionable through natural conversation, ultimately improving productivity and decision-making across the organization.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re planning to scale beyond a simple prototype, it helps to align your agent with the broader Business Central roadmap, security, environments, integrations, and support.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dynamics.folio3.com\/\">Dynamics Folio3<\/a>\u00a0can assist with Business Central implementation and upgrades, Azure-based integration and data migration, managed support\/optimization, and deploying Copilot Studio agents that securely access Business Central data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Building intelligent conversational agents that connect to your Business Central data has never been easier.
