About this Product
Data migration and mass data maintenance are where Business Central projects bleed hours. Native configuration packages (RapidStart) are slow on large datasets, fragile on validation errors, and offer no clean bulk-delete or mass-update path. The Excel add-in chokes past a few thousand rows. This tool replaces that workflow with a purpose-built engine that reads and writes Business Central tables directly — typically importing 30x+ faster than configuration packages on real-world data loads.
The Data Import/Export Power Tool is an AL extension delivered as a per-tenant (PTE) extension installed straight onto your Business Central environment — Online (SaaS) or on-premises. It is not an instant AppSource download. ECOSIRE builds it to your data shape, installs it as a signed per-tenant app, wires the permission sets, and configures it against the exact tables you need.
Core capabilities:
- High-speed bulk import from text/CSV directly into any table, with field mapping and validation control.
- Bulk export of any table — including filtered subsets — to text/CSV for backup, reporting handoff, or tenant-to-tenant migration.
- Mass update operations that set or recalculate fields across thousands of records in one pass.
- Bulk delete with safe filtering — something RapidStart simply does not do.
- Auto-insert of lot/serial numbers for item-tracking-heavy inventory loads.
- Any-table targeting — standard and custom tables, including fields added by other extensions.
We run imports through proper AL table relations and field validation so posted/ledger integrity is respected, and long-running jobs can be scheduled on the job queue. The tool is yours on your tenant; ECOSIRE provides the source, documentation, and ongoing support. Built honestly to order, with a clear lead time.
What you get
- A signed per-tenant (PTE) AL extension installed on your Business Central environment (Online or on-premises)
- Configured field mappings and table targets matched to your actual data shape and migration scope
- Dedicated permission sets scoped for admins and consultants, assigned during install
- A documented import/export run procedure plus sample CSV/text templates for your key tables
- Job-queue setup for any scheduled or off-hours bulk operations
- Full AL source code and a deployment/upgrade runbook handed to your team
- A post-install handover session and a defined support and update window
Who this is for
Business Central Administrator
Owns the tenant and is responsible for go-live data loads, periodic mass corrections, and cleanup. Needs to import, fix, and purge data fast without writing AL or fighting RapidStart's slow, error-prone packages.
Implementation Consultant / Partner
Runs multiple BC migrations and reuses the same data-wrangling workflow across clients. Wants a reliable, any-table import/export/delete engine that respects validation and saves days per project.
Finance or Operations Data Owner
Maintains large master-data and transactional datasets (items, customers, inventory, prices). Needs bulk updates and serial/lot loading done safely and repeatably, with errors reported rather than hidden.

Frequently Asked Questions about Data Import/Export Power Tool
Is this an instant AppSource download?
No. This is a build-to-order per-tenant (PTE) AL extension. ECOSIRE builds it to your data shape, signs it, and installs it directly onto your Business Central environment. There is no public AppSource listing or instant download link — you get a tailored install plus the source code and a runbook.
What is the delivery lead time?
Typical lead time is one working week from kickoff, depending on how many tables and custom fields are in scope and whether your environment is Online or on-premises. After a short scoping call we confirm an exact date in writing. Straightforward single-environment installs land at the faster end of that range.
How do ongoing support and updates work?
Every build includes a defined post-install support and update window. Because you receive the full AL source and an upgrade runbook, the extension is yours to keep. ECOSIRE handles BC version-compatibility updates and fixes during the support window, and offers an optional ongoing support retainer for teams that prefer us to manage upgrades long-term.
Will bulk import bypass Business Central's validation and corrupt my data?
No. We import through AL with table-relation and field validation enabled by default, so master-data integrity and posting rules are respected. Where you explicitly need raw speed on clean, pre-validated data, validation can be selectively relaxed per table — but that is a deliberate, documented choice, never the default.
Does it work on Business Central Online (SaaS) and on-premises?
Yes. The tool is delivered as a per-tenant extension that installs on both BC Online (SaaS) and on-premises deployments. The import/export engine, mass-update, bulk-delete, and lot/serial features work the same way on either; only the install and signing steps differ slightly by deployment type.
