The Dynamics 365 Business Central partner community is gathering in Paris this October, and we’d love to see you there. If you’re a reseller, ISV, consultant, or Business Central partner operating in EMEA, this event is perfect for you, and it’s where we’ll be talking about what governed AI actually looks like as a repeatable capability you can bring to every customer engagement.


Directions EMEA 2026 is the annual gathering of the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central partner ecosystem, including resellers, ISVs, Microsoft representatives, MVPs, developers, and consultants from across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. This year it’s in Paris, from October 27–29. It’s one of the most technically focused partner events in the Business Central calendar, and for eOne that means three days of conversations with the people who are actually building and delivering BC solutions to customers.

Where D365 Business Central Partners Are Right Now with AI

The Business Central partner community has moved well past “should we pay attention to AI?” Most partners are actively evaluating, piloting, or even recommending AI tools to their customers. Partners are discussing Microsoft’s native Copilot features, and MCP is becoming part of the delivery vocabulary. The question has shifted from whether to adopt AI to how to deliver it to customers without introducing risk, and without a custom development project on every engagement.


The problem is familiar to anyone who has tried to connect an AI tool to a live Business Central environment: generic connectors expose too much, and security relies on prompts instead of enforcement. There’s no audit trail of what the AI accessed or changed, and the AI itself doesn’t understand your customer’s business logic. It doesn’t have the context around their pricing rules, approval thresholds, or other specific workflows. Without a layer that encodes that context and enforces access at the tool level, you’re either limiting what AI can do or accepting risk you can’t justify to your customers.

What PopdockAI Does for Business Central Partners

PopdockAI is the context-sensitive layer you’ve been missing. It connects AI clients like Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP-compatible environment to Business Central and the rest of your customer’s business systems through purpose-built, governed tools. You define what the AI can see, what it can do, and what gets logged. Deploy in hours without custom development, and bring a repeatable capability to every engagement, instead of rebuilding the integration layer from scratch each time.


For Business Central partners, that means you can deliver AI that actually executes inside your customer’s environment. It can create sales orders, update records, trigger workflows, generate reports, and query across Business Central and connected CRM or finance systems simultaneously with full role-based security and an audit trail behind every action.
