Manufacturing (11 posts)
Production orders, BOMs, routings, subcontracting, flushing methods, shop-floor processes. Most of the blog lives here. If your job involves the BC manufacturing module, this is the lane.
Best Practices (9 posts)
Field guides, troubleshooting playbooks, and ERP implementation advice from real engagements. Strategy and decision-making more than code — useful for consultants, project managers, and IT leads.
AL Development (6 posts)
Extensions, page extensions, permissions, custom code, MCP and AI integrations. Aimed at BC developers building real apps — including AppSource publishers.
Inventory & Costing (4 posts)
Inventory valuation, standard cost, safety stock, EOQ, costing methods (FIFO/Average/Standard). The financial side of the warehouse — and the area where most BC implementations quietly lose money.
Releases (4 posts)
BC version releases — Wave 1, v26, v27, v28 — and what actually changes in the manufacturing and costing modules. Filters the Microsoft release notes down to the bits that matter to people running production.
APICS & Planning (2 posts)
APICS/ASCM principles, MPS, MRP, CRP, planning horizons, planning worksheet behaviour. How textbook planning theory maps to Business Central setup — and where the two diverge.
Performance (2 posts)
Locking, blocking, database indexes, slow reports, BC performance optimisation. The Database Locks page (new in v27), AL patterns that cause locks, and the indexes that solve them.
