Why teams connect Azure OpenAI and Dynamics 365 Business Central

Ground Azure OpenAI on the customers, suppliers, items, and transactions that live in Dynamics 365 Business Central, and write the classifications, scores, and extracted fields Azure OpenAI produces back onto those records in real time.

Azure OpenAI is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Dynamics 365 Business Central, so Dynamics 365 Business Central always reflects the current state of Azure OpenAI — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

An AI system does not keep customers, orders, or invoices the way an ERP does. What it keeps is derived: the vectors and metadata in a store, or the classifications, extracted fields, and generated text a model produces over records it was handed. Dynamics 365 Business Central is where those source records actually live, across finance, operations, procurement, and inventory, and that data usually stays behind a strict API with many record types. Whatever Azure OpenAI produces, whether a category, a risk flag, an extracted value, or an embedding, only earns its keep when it lands back on the record in Dynamics 365 Business Central where the business is run.

Stacksync connects Vector stores, Deployments, Models, Fine-tuning jobs in Azure OpenAI with Dimensions, Payments, Customers, Vendors in Dynamics 365 Business Central and keeps the two sides in sync in real time. Dimensions, Payments, Customers, Vendors from Dynamics 365 Business Central replicate into Azure OpenAI continuously, so retrieval, classification, and reasoning run against current ERP records instead of last night's extract, and the fields Azure OpenAI generates sync back onto the matching record in Dynamics 365 Business Central. Mapping is field-level, matching is on identifiers you choose, and Stacksync handles the ERP's API limits and schema drift, so there is no extraction pipeline to build or babysit.

Because every AI-side item carries the key of the record it came from, results always resolve to the right customer, supplier, or transaction. Azure OpenAI reasons over the business as it actually is within seconds of a change, and the people running operations act on model output where they already work, without exporting a file or logging into a second system.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync the Deployments inventory (model, version, TPM capacity) into Postgres so platform teams track every Azure OpenAI deployment across subscriptions in SQL.
  • 02 Land Fine-tuning jobs with their status, base model, and result Files in a warehouse to power MLOps dashboards without per-viewer API calls.
  • 03 Mirror items and inventory levels into external channels so stock data stays current outside the ERP.
  • 04 Replicate GL entries and dimensions into a SQL database for financial reporting without giving analysts ERP logins.

Common sync patterns

Document extraction round-trip

Purchase orders, invoices, or other documents flow from Dynamics 365 Business Central into Azure OpenAI for parsing or classification, and the structured result returns to the record it came from.

ERP records as live context

Customers, suppliers, items, and transactions from Dynamics 365 Business Central replicate into Azure OpenAI as they change, so search, retrieval, and reasoning run against current records rather than a periodic extract.

Derived fields back on the record

Categories, scores, or extracted values produced in Azure OpenAI sync onto the matching record in Dynamics 365 Business Central, where operations and finance teams see and act on them without leaving the ERP.

What you can sync between Azure OpenAI and Dynamics 365 Business Central

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Azure OpenAI objects Dynamics 365 Business Central objects How this pairing syncs
Files Uploaded training, validation, and batch-input files plus generated output files; listed and read by ID, not written back in sync. Payments Customer and vendor payment records reconciled against invoices. Files is specific to Azure OpenAI and Payments to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Batch jobs Asynchronous bulk-inference jobs; status and output-file IDs are polled to completion to drive downstream pipeline triggers. Customers Core master data synced with CRMs so sales and finance share one customer list. Batch jobs is specific to Azure OpenAI and Customers to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Usage and quota Per-deployment TPM/RPM consumption and remaining quota, read from usage endpoints and Azure Monitor for cost and throttling reporting. Vendors Supplier master data synced with procurement and AP automation tools. Usage and quota is specific to Azure OpenAI and Vendors to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Assistants Persistent assistants (preview) with instructions, tools, and linked files; read as configuration inventory, not authored via sync. Items Product and inventory records aligned with e-commerce and warehouse systems. Assistants is specific to Azure OpenAI and Items to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Vector stores File collections (preview) backing file-search retrieval; read as metadata such as name, file counts, and status. Sales Orders Order headers and lines created from external channels and read back for fulfillment status. Vector stores is specific to Azure OpenAI and Sales Orders to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Deployments Named model deployments (model, version, SKU, assigned TPM capacity) read as a control-plane inventory via Azure Resource Manager; read-only in sync. Sales Invoices Billing documents synced to CRMs and payment platforms. Deployments is specific to Azure OpenAI and Sales Invoices to Dynamics 365 Business Central — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Azure OpenAI and Dynamics 365 Business Central

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Azure OpenAI Dynamics 365 Business Central Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Azure OpenAI for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling: list endpoints plus GET on job IDs for status.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Dynamics 365 Business Central through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Dynamics 365 Business Central Azure OpenAI Sub-second propagation

DetectionDynamics 365 Business Central notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. API webhooks (change notifications on subscribed entities) plus polling on lastModifiedDateTime.

DeliveryAzure OpenAI does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Azure OpenAI's output flows back as field updates on the originating Dynamics 365 Business Central records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Azure OpenAI: Per-deployment TPM and RPM limits (about 6 RPM per 1000 TPM), scoped by region and subscription; control-plane ARM calls throttle separately.
