It’s that time of year when we receive the official release plan for Wave 2 of Business Central.
This post provides an overview of the upcoming features.
Copilot and Agents
Did someone say AI? Sure, most of the time I’m one of those AI dudes. So, let’s see.
| Feature | Enabled for | Public preview | General availability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Give more instructions for the agent when you review its tasks | Users, automatically | Oct 2025 | – |
| Capture more sales with enhanced Sales Order Agent | Users by admins, makers, or analysts | Jul 2025 | Oct 2025 |
| Use Sales Order Agent to automate sales order-taking | Users by admins, makers, or analysts | Mar 7, 2025 | Oct 2025 |
| Suggest gas emissions in sustainability journals with Copilot | Users, automatically | Oct 2025 | – |
| Use enhanced chat with Copilot | Users, automatically | Oct 2025 | – |
| Get better field suggestions using autofill with Copilot | Users, automatically | Oct 2025 | – |
| Connect AI agents to Business Central through MCP server | Users, automatically | Oct 2025 | – |
| Use AI resources for your Copilot extensions | Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically | Jun 6, 2025 | Oct 2025 |
| Use enhanced analysis assist with Copilot | Users, automatically | – | Oct 2025 |
| Summarize with Copilot enhancements | Users, automatically | Oct 2025 | – |
The Sales Order Agent can finally handle attachments and receive instructions while reviewing its tasks — thumbs up!
Autofill and Summarize have improved features and now work better, faster, and smarter. Thumbs up!
Connecting AI agents to BC through the MCP server gets a thumbs up! (If executed well.)
I was pretty sure the Payables Agent was announced for GA in October 2025, but it suddenly disappeared. Thumbs down!
Country and regional
Dynamics 365 Business Central – Country and regional | Microsoft Learn
Since I’m from Germany, there have been no changes for us so far.
Development
| Feature | Enabled for | Public preview | General availability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Extend Copilot autofill using AL | Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically | Oct 2025 | – |
| Extend Copilot summaries using AL | Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically | Oct 2025 | – |
Boom! We are finally able to extend Copilot! This will allow us to provide our customers with a personalized Copilot experience. It sounds promising; we’ll see what it’s capable of once we can test it.
Electronic Documents
Dynamics 365 Business Central – Electronic Documents | Microsoft Learn
I suppose the most interesting feature is the new document types for e-document handling.
Financial Management
Dynamics 365 Business Central – Financial Management | Microsoft Learn
That’s not my area of expertise, so I’d better skip that.
Reporting and data analysis
Dynamics 365 Business Central – Reporting and data analysis | Microsoft Learn
If you follow Kennie Nybo Pontoppidan | LinkedIn then you know that Microsoft has invested heavily in reporting. This upcoming wave is no exception. If you work in reporting, you should definitely take a look—major improvements are waiting for you!
Supply chain management
Dynamics 365 Business Central – Supply chain management | Microsoft Learn
A new module is incoming with the Quality Management extension. We’ll see what it’s capable of. GA is scheduled for December 2025.
Sustainability Management
Dynamics 365 Business Central – Sustainability Management | Microsoft Learn
Since Continia is withdrawing their module, the Microsoft module might become more appealing. It has also been a significant investment for the last 1-2 versions, and it still is.
It also gets copilot functionality.
Conclusion
In short, it’s AI again (of course). Since I’m one of those guys who doesn’t talk about much else besides AI, I’m quite happy with it.
But let’s not forget that it’s not just AI. Microsoft is still investing a lot in new modules, better functionalities, and more to make Business Central an even better ERP.
