Voice-to-BC: Capturing Transactions Through Conversational Interfaces for sending reports

Voice-to-BC: Capturing Transactions Through Conversational Interfaces

What if users could simply speak to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central to create transactions for requesting reports? This session explores how conversational AI can transform ERP interactions by enabling voice-driven workflows that are faster, more intuitive, and accessible across devices.

We'll walk through a practical, API-first architecture that connects speech-to-text services and natural language processing with Business Central APIs and AL extensions. You'll learn how spoken commands like “Create a sales order for customer 10000 with 5 laptops” or “Send last month's sales report” can be translated into structured actions within the system.

The session includes a live demo showcasing real-time transaction creation and automated report delivery using voice input. We'll also cover key considerations such as validation, security, error handling, and performance optimization.

Whether you're a developer, consultant, or architect, you'll gain actionable insights into building modern, AI-powered user experiences that extend Business Central beyond traditional interfaces.
