Core financials
Manage general ledger, accounts payable and receivable, fixed assets, cash flow and financial close with greater control across the business.
One ERP family, two powerful applications
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management work together to connect financial management with the operational processes behind it. Whether you're managing complex reporting requirements, global supply chains, manufacturing, or distribution, you can build around the capabilities your organisation needs.
Financial planning and insight
Bring budgets, forecasts, financial performance and operational reporting closer together to support better decisions across the organisation.
Supply chain management
Connect procurement, inventory, demand planning and fulfilment with better visibility over the movement of goods and materials.
Warehouse and logistics
Coordinate receiving, picking, packing, shipping, warehouse activity and transportation with connected inventory and operational data.
Global and multi-entity
Manage multiple legal entities, currencies, tax requirements and intercompany transactions within a connected financial environment.
Compliance and audit
Support financial governance with configurable controls, approval workflows, transaction histories and audit trails across complex operations.
Manufacturing
Plan and manage production across discrete, process and lean manufacturing environments, with greater visibility of resources, materials and costs.
Asset management
Manage equipment maintenance, service schedules, work orders and asset performance to help reduce unplanned downtime.
Copilot, built into the work
AI is most valuable when it helps people do the work already in front of them. Across Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management, Copilot and emerging AI agents can help teams understand information, identify exceptions, and reduce time spent on routine tasks.
Financial information, explained
Bring useful context to finance processes with AI-generated summaries, collections insights and assistance with financial workflows.
Supply chain insights, surfaced
Use AI-assisted analysis to understand demand patterns, procurement changes and operational workloads, helping teams spot issues earlier.
AI with business controls
Introduce AI within your Microsoft environment, with access, permissions, and governance designed around the way your organisation manages information.
So, how can we help?
Planning a new enterprise ERP, moving from Dynamics AX, or looking to get more from an existing Finance and Operations environment? Whether you're at the beginning of the journey or somewhere along the way, we can help you work through the options.
Why Professional Advantage?
Complex ERP needs more than technical expertise
Finance and Operations projects touch the processes organisations depend on every day. Financial reporting, procurement, inventory, manufacturing, warehousing and the movement of information between them all need to work together.
At Professional Advantage, we start with the business behind the system. We work to understand how your organisation operates, where complexity is creating friction, and what the technology needs to deliver before making decisions about configuration, integrations and customisation.
Our Australian team brings together enterprise ERP consulting, solution architecture, development, project delivery and ongoing support. We work across Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management, as well as the wider Microsoft ecosystem, helping clients connect systems, improve processes and build solutions they can continue to evolve.
And because we're experienced in both new implementations and project recovery, our relationship doesn't have to begin at the start of a project or end at go-live.

Both support ERP processes, but they're designed for different levels and types of complexity. Business Central brings broad financial and operational capabilities together for growing organisations, while Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management offer deeper capabilities for complex financial structures, global operations, manufacturing, warehousing and supply chains. The best fit depends on the processes and requirements of your organisation, not simply its size.
Finance and Operations remains a commonly used term, particularly among organisations familiar with Dynamics AX or earlier Dynamics 365 naming. Today, Microsoft offers Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management as distinct applications within the wider Dynamics 365 ecosystem.
Moving from Dynamics AX to Dynamics 365 is an opportunity to review more than the technology platform. We can help assess your existing configuration, customisations, integrations, data and business processes to determine whether an upgrade, migration or re-implementation is the most practical approach.
An enterprise ERP implementation can vary significantly depending on the number of legal entities, processes, locations, integrations, existing systems, data quality and change requirements. We scope these factors upfront and recommend a delivery approach that reflects your organisation's complexity and readiness.
Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management receive ongoing Microsoft updates as cloud services. While this removes the need for traditional major on-premises version upgrades, changes still need planning, testing and management, particularly where customisations, integrations, and critical processes are involved.
Dynamics 365 Finance supports Australian financial and tax processes, but the appropriate configuration is essential. Professional Advantage offers packaged implementation services for Australian GST and BAS, along with EFT payments and bank reconciliation, to help organisations establish and test these processes.
Yes. We work with organisations whose Finance and Operations projects have stalled, exceeded expectations, or are not delivering the intended outcomes. Depending on the situation, we can provide an independent health check, targeted remediation, a broader recovery programme, or re-implementation support.
