At the Microsoft Community Summit in Orlando, one challenge dominates every conversation: how to make supply chains smarter, faster, and more connected. For Dynamics 365 users, the answer is modernizing B2B integration. 

The Dynamics integration reality check 

As you scale your Dynamics implementation, the same challenges emerge across all modules: 

Business Central users face growing partner complexity. Each new supplier, distributor, or customer brings unique EDI requirements and compliance demands that can overwhelm internal IT resources. 

Finance and Operations teams need sophisticated connectivity beyond basic file exchanges—real-time financial synchronization, automated three-way matching, and global compliance reporting. 

Supply Chain Management users discover that advanced planning is only as good as the data feeding it. When partner information arrives in batches or through manual processes, even sophisticated demand planning becomes reactive, not predictive. 

What Dynamics users really want 

Questions within Dynamics user groups aren’t always technical, but strategic, such as how do you prevent “quick EDI connection” projects from becoming months-long implementations that fail to deliver promised visibility and automation? 

The most common questions we hear: 

  • How do we onboard partners without six-month projects? 
  • Can we get real-time supply chain visibility within Dynamics? 
  • How do other organizations handle global compliance? 
  • What’s the best practice for automated exception handling? 

Strategic partnerships amplify ROI 

The most successful Dynamics implementations go beyond operational efficiency. They integrate strategic B2B capabilities that transform entire ecosystems. OpenText enables this by digitizing B2B integrations, improving EDI accuracy, and preparing supply chains for AI-driven innovation. 

For System Integrators: Combine deep Dynamics expertise with enterprise-grade B2B integration to accelerate implementations, deliver strategic value, and unlock recurring revenue through managed services. 

For Dynamics Users: Enhance your existing investment ROI through expanded functionality, streamlined partner processes, reduced operational costs, and real-time supply chain visibility that improves decision-making and accelerates time-to-market.
