Business Central holds a lot of valuable data, but getting that data out in the right format for the right audience is not always straightforward.
In this webinar, we will walk through the different tools available for exporting, reporting on, and analyzing Business Central data. We will cover when each option makes sense, what type of request it is best suited for, and how to choose the simplest tool for the job.
Whether you need a quick export to Excel, a repeatable report, deeper analysis in Power BI, or a way to share data with another system, this session will help you understand the options available and when to use them.
What you'll learn:
- The different ways to get data out of Business Central
- When to use Excel, built-in reporting, Power BI, APIs, and other Microsoft tools
- How to choose the right option based on the business need
- When a simple export is enough and when a more structured reporting solution makes sense
- How to think about audience, frequency, complexity, and how the data will be used
Best for: Business Central users, finance teams, administrators, reporting professionals, and anyone responsible for getting useful information out of BC.

I’m David Rhue. I help people and businesses cut through noise and complexity so they can focus on what matters. By trade, I’m an ERP guy, two decades deep in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. I’ve led full-scale transformations, turned chaotic systems into clarity, and shown companies how technology can actually serve people, not the other way around. That’s the work that pays the bills. But for me, it’s never just been about the software; it’s about people gaining confidence, teams breathing easier, leaders making smarter calls. But I’m more than a consultant. I’m a writer. Words are how I make sense of the world, from technology insights on my blog, The BC Dr., to fiction writing that provokes thought. Writing lets me connect dots between business and story, systems and humanity. I’m also a speaker. Put me in a room, and I’ll make the technical feel simple, practical, and meaningful. I’ve spoken at major industry events, including Dynamics Community Summit and Directions, and represented firms at client and partner gatherings.
