Powering Retail with Data-Driven Insights

Retail moves fast. Stock turns daily, footfall fluctuates hourly, and customer expectations change constantly. For retailers running on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, having real-time insight into sales, stock, and operations is crucial.

That’s why change++ is excited to announce our new partnership with Dynavics a leading Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central specialist. Together, we’re bringing next-level ERP implementations and expertise to our customers. Let’s take a look.

Why retailers need smarter data

Retail leaders know that success hinges on visibility and speed.

• Which stores are driving margin today
• Where is stock selling faster than forecasts
• How is online conversion trending hour by hour?

Traditional reporting tools can’t keep up. They rely on manual exports and end-of-day spreadsheets, meaning opportunities are missed and decisions and not in real-time.

With a Dynavics Business Central solution integrated with change++ data expertise, retailers can move from after-the-fact reporting to live, actionable dashboard insights.

What Dynavics brings to retail

Dynavics specialises in effective, customer-focussed deployments of Business Central. With over 10 years experience, they’ve helped brands such as The British Museum, Kevyn Aucoin and Diptyque connect their financials, sales, service, and operations, efficiently and with ease.

Key benefits for retailers include:

• Real-Time Dashboards: view sales, margin, and stock levels minute by minute, across stores, regions, or channels.
• Self-Service Analytics: empower category and store managers to ask questions and drill into detail without waiting for IT or finance teams.
• Automated Reporting: remove hours of manual work every week with automatically generated, customisable reports.
• Multi-Channel View: bring eCommerce, bricks-and-mortar, and supply chain data together in one place.

All of this runs within the Microsoft ecosystem, so it’s secure, familiar, and scalable.

Better decisions, faster

Imagine spotting a sudden run on a trending product and rerouting stock within the hour, before shelves are empty. That would be smart; or identifying a drop in footfall at a particular location and adjusting staff schedules instantly, to meet customer expectations and not overspend on labour. Smart.

This is the power of combining Business Central’s retail-ready ERP with change++’s deep BI expertise, all cleverly scoped and implemented by Dynavics, to give retail client seamless and tailored functionality.
