About this Product

This is a build-to-order Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central extension, not an instant Microsoft AppSource download. After purchase, ECOSIRE builds the AI Inventory & Sales Forecasting Agent in AL, installs it as a per-tenant extension on your Business Central environment (cloud SaaS or on-prem), and supports it afterward.

The agent reads your posted sales history through Business Central's data model — Item Ledger Entry, Sales Line, and Sales Invoice Line — and builds a per-item, per-location demand model. It detects seasonality and trend, then writes suggested reorder points, reorder quantities, and safety-stock values back against each Item and Stockkeeping Unit. Suggestions surface in a dedicated forecast list page and as cues on a Role Center, so your purchaser sees what to buy and when without exporting to spreadsheets.

Technically, the extension ships table extensions and page extensions over the Item card, an event-subscriber-driven recalculation triggered on posting, and a Job Queue entry that refreshes forecasts on a schedule you choose. Where you want the heavy modeling outside BC, ECOSIRE wires the agent to your scoring service over the BC REST/OData v4 API, or integrates through Dataverse and Power Platform so forecasts can drive Power Automate flows and Power BI.

Everything respects Business Central security: a dedicated permission set, telemetry to your Application Insights, and AppSource-compatible coding standards so the extension upgrades cleanly across BC release waves.

Because each environment, data shape, and replenishment policy differs, scope is confirmed with you before build. You receive the compiled .app, source where agreed, and a documented handover. Lead time and support terms are stated plainly below — no hidden subscriptions, no marketplace lock-in.

What you get

  • Scoping document confirming items, locations, history depth, replenishment policy, and target service level
  • Compiled, signed AL .app file installed as a per-tenant extension on your Business Central environment
  • Table and page extensions over the Item card plus the forecast list page and Role Center cues
  • Job Queue entry configured for scheduled forecast refresh at your chosen cadence
  • Dedicated permission set and Application Insights telemetry wiring for secure, observable operation
  • Handover documentation covering setup, the forecasting parameters, and day-to-day operation
  • Optional source code delivery and OData/Power Platform integration where agreed in scope

Frequently Asked Questions about AI Inventory & Sales Forecasting Agent for Business Central

Is this a Microsoft AppSource app I can install instantly?

No. This is a build-to-order extension. After purchase, ECOSIRE builds it in AL and installs it as a per-tenant extension on your Business Central environment. It follows AppSource-compatible coding standards so it upgrades cleanly, but it is delivered and supported directly by ECOSIRE, not downloaded from the marketplace.

What is the typical delivery lead time?

After a short scoping call to confirm items, locations, history depth, and your replenishment policy, a standard build is typically delivered and installed within one working week. Environments with custom integrations or external ML scoring services may take longer; we confirm the timeline in writing before starting.

How does it use our existing Business Central data?

It reads posted history from Item Ledger Entry, Sales Line, and Sales Invoice Line to model demand per item and location. It writes suggested reorder point, reorder quantity, and safety-stock values back to the Item and Stockkeeping Unit records. No data leaves your tenant unless you opt into an external scoring service, which we configure over the secured BC REST/OData v4 API.

Will it survive Business Central release-wave updates?

Yes. The extension uses supported AL extensibility — table extensions, page extensions, event subscribers, and codeunits — with no breaking core modifications. We code to AppSource-compatible standards and validate against new release waves, so it upgrades cleanly. Update handling is part of the support arrangement below.

What does ongoing support and updates include?

ECOSIRE provides a post-delivery support period for fixes and questions, plus optional ongoing support for forecast-model tuning, new items or locations, BC release-wave compatibility checks, and feature additions. Terms are agreed up front; there is no forced subscription and no marketplace lock-in.
