Text and generative AI tools (premium)
10 messages
Uses the o1 model. Consumes 0.1 message quota per 1,000 tokens (Effective from April 7, 2025).
Here, let’s illustrate it with a senario:
If your conversation flow consists of multiple steps, each step will consume the corresponding message quota. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
1️⃣ User asks for the weather on a specific date → The AI agent retrieves weather information from an online source using a connector. Consumes 25 message quotas.
2️⃣ User inquires about internal knowledge base information → The AI agent fetches data from knowledge sources & the organization’s Microsoft Graph, then compiles a response. Consumes 2 + 30 = 32 message quotas.
3️⃣ User asks about flight reservations → This triggers a “topic”, which the system counts as an automated action. Consumes 25 message quotas.
⏳ Quota Calculation Method: The quota resets on the 1st of each month, rather than based on the subscription activation date. Unused quotas do not carry over to the next month.
? Overage Usage Options: When the quota is exhausted, businesses can either redirect AI interactions to human agents or opt for a Pay-as-you-go model at $0.01 per message quota.
3. Upgraded Analytics Dashboard: Making AI Smarter with Data
The latest Copilot Studio now offers more comprehensive data analytics, enabling businesses to track AI Agent performance and optimize AI models based on insights.

Outcome & Engagement Analysis: A pie chart visualization categorizes conversation results into three key groups: Resolved, Escalated, and Abandoned.
Session Outcome Determination:
Resolved: The session ends under one of these conditions:
A success-confirmed topic is triggered.
The conversation ends, and the user confirms a successful interaction or lets the session time out.
Escalated to Human: The session ends after an AI-handled transfer to a live agent (even if the human agent does not respond).
Abandoned: The conversation times out without being resolved or escalated.
Knowledge Source Utilization: A line chart visualization shows the frequency and proportion of different knowledge sources being used, helping businesses understand which information is most relevant to users.
User Feedback: Aggregated user satisfaction scores provide a high-level view of AI performance, ensuring continuous learning and optimization.
Conclusion: How Can Businesses Leverage Copilot Studio for Competitive Advantage?
In 2025, AI Agents are no longer just assistants—they are the driving force behind enterprise automation. With voice interactions, advanced automation, and enhanced data analytics, Copilot Studio empowers businesses to create smarter, more efficient AI experiences.

Are you seeking a solution that can integrate all aspects of your business, including finances, supply chain, and customer data, into one system? The hallmark of the Microsoft Dynamics 365 suite of business applications is its robust “integrative” capability. Through the integration of the D365 ecosystem, you can streamline and optimize your business operations by seamlessly managing production, operations, sales, and finance together.
However, many people are curious about the CRM capabilities offered by Business Central. Business Central boasts CRM-related functionalities within the ERP system, positioning itself as designed for small to medium-sized enterprises, but are these functionalities sufficient to meet all your business needs?
Today, Tectura will share with you the specifics of the customer/supplier relationship functionalities in Business Central, compare them with Dynamics 365 Sales, and explore the advantages and benefits of integrating these two systems.
Basic CRM Features in Business Central
What CRM Capabilities are there in Business Central?
Firstly, Dynamics 365 Business Central and Dynamics 365 Sales are two separate products that require separate subscriptions and user licenses. Here are the differences in their positioning:
Dynamics 365 Business Central (D365 BC) is a cloud-based ERP product designed for small to medium-sized enterprises looking to upgrade from entry-level accounting software or traditional ERP systems to a unified solution. D365 BC aims to assist businesses in managing core operational processes such as finance, manufacturing, projects, inventory management, and transportation.
Dynamics 365 Sales (D365 Sales) is a cloud-based CRM solution primarily aimed at supporting sales teams and their related activities. Its user interface is designed specifically for sales personnel to identify potential customers, manage sales opportunities, and build relationships with potential and existing customers.
As mentioned, since Business Central’s focus is on helping businesses integrate core business processes across departments, its CRM functionalities are closely related to operational processes such as finance, sales, and supply chain management. These functionalities include customer data management, opportunity tracking, customer communication records, sales order management, and reporting and analysis.
Customer Data Management
Business Central categorizes customer records into Contacts and Accounts, making it easy for you to manage basic customer information such as contact details, company addresses, and payment terms. This design allows you to understand the organizational structure of customers and establish multiple contact profiles within one organization based on different functional windows. Even if a contact changes jobs, the system retains past interactions and contact records with the organization.
Opportunity Management
Utilizing the opportunity management feature in Business Central(https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/marketing-manage-sales-opportunities), you can easily create new sales opportunities, including detailed descriptions of potential customers, projected project amounts, estimated transaction dates, and establish sales cycles with defined stages like ‘initial contact,’ ‘needs analysis,’ ‘quoting/proposal,’ ‘negotiation/deal,’ etc., making management and tracking more convenient.
Customer Communication Records
During the progression towards closing deals, you can record communication logs with customers, such as phone calls, emails, meeting records, or discounts/promotions. Colleagues can seamlessly collaborate and handover, helping maintain consistency in communication with potential customers and driving the progress of opportunities.
Sales Order Management
Business Central provides a range of sales order management functionalities, including automatically generating sales orders based on opportunity data, assigning orders to the appropriate sales teams or warehouses, and generating invoices. This enables you to have detailed information on products or services purchased by different customers, quantities, prices, etc., at your fingertips, and keep track of order shipment and payment statuses in real-time.
Basic Reporting and Analysis
Business Central offers some basic reporting and analysis functionalities. You can analyze sales data to understand customer demographics, expected sales revenue, etc., and make corresponding business decisions and plans.
These five functionalities enable you to easily manage customer information related to finance, sales, and supply chain. However, if your business has specific needs and goals, relying solely on Business Central may not be sufficient. Dynamics 365 Sales, Microsoft’s CRM tool tailored for sales teams, offers a broader range of customer relationship management features and fosters improved collaboration among sales staff. Now, let’s see what specialized functionalities Sales can offer for your sales team!
Enhanced Sales Efficiency and Business Growth
The quoting and contract management features in Dynamics 365 Sales are functionalities not available in Dynamics 365 Business Central. You can create, track, and manage sales quotes and contracts, and allow customers to sign electronically. This streamlines the sales team’s follow-up on opportunities, aids in customer data management, and facilitates the closing of deals over time. Therefore, if you want to focus more on improving sales efficiency, accelerating sales processes, and promoting business growth, evaluating the adoption of Dynamics 365 Sales will be a significant boost.
Execution of Personalized, Automated Sales Activities
Dynamics 365 Sales provides sales automation tools and artificial intelligence to help you track and execute sales activities, which are not included in Business Central. If you want to better understand customer needs and provide personalized service and support to build closer customer relationships, utilizing Dynamics 365 Sales would be a better choice.
Every day, the system automatically alerts you to lists of customers you should contact, eliminating the need to worry about the priority of contacting potential customers. Additionally, the system seamlessly integrates with platforms like Outlook, LinkedIn, etc., and, coupled with AI “Copilot” summaries and suggestions, enables you to easily send personalized sales information through different channels. These features can help you focus more on improving customer satisfaction, thereby achieving higher sales performance.
Sales Forecasting, In-Depth Analysis
Another functionality provided by Dynamics 365 Sales but not available in Business Central is “Sales Forecast.” This feature predicts future sales performance in real-time based on past sales data and trends. Therefore, if your goal is to formulate more accurate sales strategies and budget plans, implementing Dynamics 365 Sales will provide you with more comprehensive data insights to help you make decisions.
The Benefits of Integration Between D365 BC & Sales
Through the in-depth exploration of customer relationship management functionalities in Business Central and Sales above, I hope it helped you gain a better understanding of the tasks that these two systems can accomplish individually, and clarify their limitations. In Tectura’s over 22 years of implementation experience, we have also served many customers who choose to adopt both Dynamics 365 CRM and ERP simultaneously. Compared to adopting only one or combining with systems from other brands, simultaneously adopting both can bring significant integration benefits and advantages. Let’s analyze them one by one:
Comprehensive Seamless Integration
Dynamics 365 Business Central and Sales can be seamlessly integrated. Once you’ve established data synchronization between the ERP and CRM systems, whether it’s set up to sync data in one direction or both ways, you’ll unlock a series of benefits. Initially, you’ll be able to seamlessly share data between the two systems, breaking down any data silos and streamlining operations. This will lead to the automation of redundant data entry and transmission tasks, resulting in significant time and resource savings. Moreover, as data flows smoothly between departments, you’ll notice improved overall business efficiency. Additionally, with access to integrated data, you’ll be empowered to gain comprehensive insights into your business operations, paving the way for informed decision-making and strategic planning.
Cross-Department Collaboration Enhancement
Through the integration of both systems, you can manage all business activities on a comprehensive unified platform, from sales and marketing to finance and supply chain management. Different teams can share important data such as customer information, sales opportunities, orders, invoices, etc., between CRM and ERP. As a result, sales teams can easily view customer order history, inventory status, and financial information, better understand customer needs, and provide more personalized service. Meanwhile, finance and operations teams can immediately access the latest sales data and adjust production and supply chain plans based on actual situations.
Higher Cost-Effectiveness
The combination of Dynamics 365 CRM and ERP incurs lower costs compared to separate implementations of the two systems. In terms of subscription fees, if the same user subscribes to both Business Central and Sales, Microsoft provides about a 70% off discount on the subscription fees for the second application. And for some users, additional subscription permissions may not even be necessary. For example, finance personnel can create invoices based on price lists in the Dynamics 365 Sales application without subscribing to CRM separately.
Moreover, due to the seamless integration and data sharing capabilities between Dynamics 365 applications, you do not need to set up additional API integrations to synchronize data, significantly reducing development and time costs.
Lastly, for internal users of the organization, once they have built foundational knowledge of the first system, further expanding learning to Microsoft’s systems will not require excessive time and effort.
If your company is actively pursuing integrated business processes, or seeking more comprehensive customer relationship management tools, or anticipating forecasting sales trends and making precise business decisions, we invite you to schedule a free consultation immediately. Let our professional team assist you in conducting more detailed evaluations and analyses.
Our professional team will be happy to tailor solutions for you, including the implementation of Dynamics 365 Business Central and Dynamics 365 Sales, as well as providing recommendations and technical services for system integration.
