Warehouse and ERP kept in step
Business Central or F&SCM integrated with a warehouse management system, with exception queues, monitoring and a support line that triages by operational impact.
Industries
Sectors where the ERP is operationally critical
Logistics and supply chain is our main beachhead, alongside wholesale and distribution, manufacturing and professional services. Organisations in other sectors running Dynamics 365 or SAP Business One are equally welcome; the approach is the same.
01
Logistics and supply chain
Transport, warehousing, freight forwarding and 3PL operators where the ERP, WMS and carrier systems must stay in sync all day.
Logistics businesses live on throughput and accuracy. When the ERP falls out of step with the warehouse, the transport planning tool or a customer's EDI feed, the cost shows up immediately in missed slots, re-deliveries and disputed invoices. Our logistics clients value a support partner that understands operational urgency and keeps integrations visible.
Typical challenges
- Order, shipment and status data flowing between ERP, WMS, TMS and customer portals without manual re-keying
- EDI with retailers, shippers and carriers that fails silently or needs constant correction
- Inventory accuracy across locations, bins, lots and ownership (own stock versus customer-owned stock)
- Operational KPIs (on-time-in-full, dock-to-stock, cost per order) available daily rather than at month-end
- Rapid changes in volumes and customers that require configuration changes at short notice
Systems
- Dynamics 365 Business Central
- Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management
- WMS and TMS interfaces
- EDI providers
- Power BI
Engagement scenarios
EDI onboarding of a new retail customer
Orders, despatch advices and invoices mapped to ERP documents with the customer's EDI provider, tested end to end before the first live order.
Daily operations dashboard
Power BI reporting on throughput, backlog, carrier performance and claims, refreshed through the day for shift leads and planners.
Support with operational priorities
A managed support arrangement with priority definitions written around warehouse and despatch processes rather than generic IT severity levels.

02
Wholesale and distribution
Importers, distributors and B2B wholesalers managing wide assortments, price lists, multiple channels and tight margins.
Wholesale and distribution businesses run on the ERP more than any other system: pricing, availability, purchasing, warehouse and credit control all meet there. Margins are thin, so small inefficiencies and inaccurate stock or margin figures matter. We help distributors run Business Central and SAP Business One well, connect their channels and see their real contribution margin.
Typical challenges
- Price lists, discounts, rebates and customer-specific terms configured consistently
- Web shop, marketplace and sales-rep orders integrated into one order flow
- Purchase planning and supplier lead times that keep availability high without overstock
- Margin visibility by customer, product group and channel after all discounts and costs
- Multi-entity and multi-currency reporting for groups with foreign subsidiaries
Systems
- Dynamics 365 Business Central
- Dynamics NAV
- SAP Business One
- Web shop and marketplace connectors
- Power BI
Engagement scenarios
Business Central optimisation for a growing distributor
Pricing, item and vendor set-up reviewed and standardised, purchase planning parameters tuned, and users retrained on standard processes instead of workarounds.
Web shop to ERP order integration
B2B web shop orders, stock levels and prices synchronised with Business Central or SAP Business One through supported APIs with exception handling.
Margin and sales analysis in Power BI
Contribution margin by customer and product with rebate and freight effects, reconciled to the general ledger.
NAV to Business Central migration
A long-serving NAV system migrated to Business Central online with customisations reduced and data cleansed before load.

03
Manufacturing
Discrete and process manufacturers who need planning, production, quality and costing to work together in the ERP.
Manufacturers depend on accurate bills of materials, routings, capacity data and costing to plan and price well. When these are poorly maintained the ERP produces planning noise and misleading margins, and the shop floor stops trusting it. We help manufacturers tune Dynamics 365 and SAP, connect shop-floor and quality systems, and report production performance reliably.
Typical challenges
- BOMs, routings and capacity data that have drifted from reality
- Planning worksheets and MRP runs producing proposals nobody uses
- Production costing and variances that finance cannot explain
- Shop-floor, quality and maintenance systems disconnected from the ERP
- Multi-plant and multi-entity operations needing consolidated reporting
Systems
- Dynamics 365 Business Central (manufacturing)
- Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management
- SAP Business One and S/4HANA
- Shop-floor and quality interfaces
- Power BI
Engagement scenarios
Planning parameters and master data clean-up
BOMs, routings, lead times and reorder policies reviewed and corrected so that MRP output becomes actionable.
Production and quality integration
Output, scrap and quality results captured from shop-floor systems or simple Power Apps and posted to Business Central or F&SCM.
Manufacturing performance reporting
Power BI dashboards on output, OEE-style measures, scrap reasons and planned-versus-actual costs, aligned with finance.
SAP Business One support for a production subsidiary
Second-line support, improvements and reporting for a manufacturing subsidiary running SAP Business One, alongside a Dynamics-based parent.

04
Professional services
Consultancies, engineering firms, agencies and service providers that run projects, time and billing through Dynamics 365.
Professional services firms need project accounting, resource planning, time capture and billing to work smoothly, and partners who want to see utilisation and project margin without waiting for month-end. We support Business Central and Customer Engagement for services firms and provide the capacity consultancies need to deliver to their own clients.
Typical challenges
- Project set-up, time and expense capture and billing rules configured consistently
- Work-in-progress, revenue recognition and project margin reporting
- Lead-to-order processes in Customer Engagement connected to project delivery in the ERP
- Utilisation and capacity visibility for resource managers
- Delivery capacity for consultancies with more client demand than consultants
Systems
- Dynamics 365 Business Central (projects)
- Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement
- Power BI
- Power Platform
Engagement scenarios
Projects and billing in Business Central
Job set-up, time sheets, expense flows and invoicing rules configured and documented, with WIP and recognition logic finance can reconcile.
Sales to delivery handover
Opportunities in Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement converted into projects in the ERP with the right structure and budget, without re-keying.
Utilisation and margin dashboards
Power BI reporting on billable utilisation, project margin and backlog for partners and resource managers.
Delivery partnership for a consultancy
A consulting firm uses Neurosuite consultants and subcontracted work packages to deliver Dynamics 365 and Power BI work for its own clients.
