Business Central includes a configuration package that you can export to Excel and set up your data there. Then, you can import the data from Excel again.  For larger implementation work, you can use RapidStart Services for Business Central, which is an extensive toolkit for setting up new solutions based on customers’ business requirements and setup data.

On this webinar, we will introduce you to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, the next generation ERP from Microsoft, and demonstrate how to use the configuration package to upload and loadmaster data.

Mass maintenance is a process of changing multiple master data entries at once. Mass maintenance of master records is required when there are a lot of existing master records and you need to change certain data fields in those records. For example, in multiple vendor masters or material masters at one time.  Without this tool, you will need to update the records manually.

This tutorial will explain some of the dangers of making mass changes because the Business Central system directly updates the tables behind the master records and you need to have a good knowledge of tables and fields of master records to make the necessary changes.  It also offers integrity checks to make sure there is no issue between the changes in all the tables. If it finds any issues, it will stop processing to safeguard your database and issue you a log of the said issues.
