Drop anything.
It becomes a draft in Business Central.

It turns documents into Business Central drafts. Drop a PDF invoice, a scan or phone photo, an XML e-invoice, or a CSV/XLSX file into a Chrome/Edge side panel — or route it through a watched mailbox or your own storage container — and BC Sidekick classifies it, extracts the data, verifies the math deterministically (line sums, tax totals, vendor match, journal balance), and stages a draft purchase invoice, credit memo, or journal batch in Business Central. A human approves; posting always stays in BC.

One plan: $199 per month. It includes 750 credits a month, unlimited users, and every feature and intake channel — there are no tiers to compare and no per-seat or per-module licensing. 1 credit = 1 document that reaches Business Central. If you process more, prepaid credit packs bring the effective rate down: 1,000 credits for $240 ($0.24 each), 5,000 for $1,000 ($0.20), 20,000 for $3,200 ($0.16); packs stay valid for 12 months. Above 50,000 credits a year we quote custom, and Microsoft partners (VARs) get wholesale pricing. It starts with a free 60-day pilot — 500 credits, no card.

Exactly one thing: a document that reaches Business Central as a draft — an invoice, a credit memo, or one imported file (a 500-row bank statement that becomes one journal batch is 1 credit, not 500). Rejected previews, failed validation, and retries after failures consume nothing. Monthly included credits reset each period; purchased packs stay valid for 12 months. And running out mid-month never silently stops your work: during early access we watch balances and top you up before you run dry, and reviewing documents already in your queue is never blocked.

About 15 minutes per organization. We register your Microsoft tenant, your Microsoft 365 admin clicks one consent link (two clicks total), users install the browser extension and sign in with the Microsoft accounts they already have. Nothing is installed inside Business Central itself — no AL extension, no code changes, no sandbox required.

Yes — this is a core feature, not an add-on. Drop any tabular file (CSV, TSV, XLSX — bank statements, payroll exports, spreadsheets from other systems). AI designs the column mapping once and shows you balanced general-journal lines with a net of zero verified before you approve. The mapping is saved as a template: every later file of the same shape converts in seconds, deterministically, with no AI involved.

No — by design, never. It only creates inert drafts. Posting stays inside Business Central, behind your existing approval workflows and permissions. Autopilot doesn’t change this: even a fully trusted vendor only ever produces drafts.

Continia is the established in-BC capture suite — deep and capable, licensed per module with per-document consumption, typically deployed as a partner project. BC Sidekick takes a different shape: nothing installed in BC, ~15-minute onboarding, no OCR templates to maintain (AI reads the first document; saved deterministic templates handle repeats), universal imports of any CSV/XLSX into journals — not just invoices — and flat per-document pricing with unlimited users. If you need in-BC approval-flow modules today, Continia may fit better; if you want capture plus imports working this week without a project, that is what BC Sidekick is for.

Per vendor, from your own behaviour. After 3 consecutive clean approvals — you confirmed without changing anything — new documents from that vendor become drafts automatically. The moment you correct one, trust for that vendor is revoked and its documents return to manual review.

Dynamics 365 Business Central online (SaaS) with the standard API v2.0 — which is on by default — Microsoft Entra ID user accounts, and the Chrome or Edge browser. On-premises Business Central is not supported. No server, no AL extension, no BC configuration changes.

Yours. Sign-in is multi-tenant Microsoft Entra ID, and every action BC Sidekick takes on a user’s behalf runs under that user’s own Business Central roles and permissions. It can never see or do more than the person signed in. Every action is also written to an audit log.

No. Customer data is never used for AI training. Documents are processed to serve your tenant only, structured e-invoices are parsed directly rather than reconstructed through OCR, and the backend runs on Microsoft Azure in the United States.

Yes. Credit notes are detected automatically (including negative-amount layouts), amounts are normalized, and they are staged as purchase credit memo drafts — the same validated preview-and-approve flow as invoices.

Yes. Point BC Sidekick at an Azure Blob container you own; Azure exposes a native SFTP endpoint on the same container, so anything that can SFTP a file can feed BC Sidekick. Processed files are archived automatically, and each pickup shows up in your portal with a scan status.

BC Sidekick is in early access and onboarded organization-by-organization, often together with your Microsoft Dynamics partner (VAR). Email hello@bcsidekick.com for a pilot — free for 60 days with a guided setup — or ask your partner to arrange it.
