Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
The mobile warehouse and sales app for Business Central
A certified AppSource extension, an Android app and a web Admin Center — plus MCP servers for your AI assistant. Everything posts through standard Business Central documents.
Quick answer
Plur-e extends Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central to Android devices for warehouse, sales and payment work, and to your AI assistant through the Model Context Protocol. It installs from Microsoft AppSource as a Business Central extension, is configured with the Plur-e Setup assisted setup and the Plur-e Admin Center, supports the Essentials and Premium editions, and posts every transaction through standard Business Central documents and journals.
What Plur-e posts in Business Central
No shadow database. Every mobile action becomes the document or journal your finance team already knows.
| Module | Plur-e | Business Central |
|---|---|---|
| Receiving | Post receipt | Warehouse Receipt → Posted Whse. Receipt |
| Put-away | Register | Warehouse Put-away → Registered Put-away |
| Inventory Counts | Finish count | Physical Inventory Journal lines (± adjustments; batch overwritten) |

Security and data
| Authentication | Microsoft Entra ID for the Admin Center; per-user credentials for the mobile app (temporary password on creation) |

| Hosting | Microsoft Azure. Region and subprocessor details available on request. |
Offline by design
Warehouses have dead zones and sales reps have bad coverage. Plur-e keeps working without a connection and syncs to Business Central when the signal returns — no lost scans, no double entry.
