Enterprise ERP for Businesses That Have Outgrown Mid-Market Tools
Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management (F&O) implementation and customization for complex, multi-entity businesses across the US and Canada.
When Complexity Outgrows Mid-Market ERP
Some businesses reach a scale and complexity — multiple legal entities, multiple countries, deep manufacturing or supply chain requirements — where mid-market platforms like Business Central or NetSuite start to strain at the edges. Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management (formerly Dynamics AX, commonly called Finance & Operations or F&O) is Microsoft’s enterprise-tier ERP, built for exactly this level of operational complexity.
The platform’s depth is also what makes implementation quality critical. F&O is powerful enough to model almost any business process — which means a rushed or generic implementation can just as easily bury your team in unnecessary complexity as it can deliver clarity.
What Dynamics 365 F&O Provides — Standard
- Financial Management: Multi-entity, multi-currency general ledger, advanced consolidation, and regulatory/statutory reporting across jurisdictions.
- Supply Chain Management: Demand planning, procurement, warehouse management, and manufacturing execution.
- Production Control: Discrete, process, and lean manufacturing support.
- Project Operations: Project accounting, resource management, and billing for project-based businesses.
- Power Platform Integration: Native connectivity to Power BI, Power Automate, and Power Apps.
Feature availability depends on licensed modules and release wave — verify current details at microsoft.com/dynamics365.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between Business Central and Finance & Operations?
Business Central is Microsoft’s mid-market ERP; Finance and Operations (F&O) is the enterprise tier, built for organizations with greater complexity — multiple legal entities and countries, advanced manufacturing, or deep supply chain requirements.
Is F&O the same as Dynamics AX?
Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management is Microsoft’s cloud evolution of Dynamics AX. Organizations migrating from on-premise AX typically require a structured re-implementation rather than a simple upgrade.
