Kristen Hosman’s Dynamics 365 Business Central Blog

The purpose of this blog is to discuss how I use the Review Entries feature in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central to reconcile my business credit card. This feature is great for reconciling balance sheet accounts because you can match debits and credits together to track what the remaining account balance is made up of.  Process and Setup As vendor invoices are received and entered into Business Central, I follow the workflow below. I will go through two scenarios in this blog.  Invoice is received and already paid via credit card. Invoice is received and will be paid via credit card at a later date. Let's take a moment to review my setup in the system. In order for this to work as expected I set up a payment method named AMEX and add a balance G/L account of 20108.   Account 20108 is my liability account for AMEX Payable.  Make sure the Review Policy is set to 'Allow Review and match Balance' on the G/L Account Card.

    It's been a few weeks since Community Summit ended, and I'm still fueled by the excitement of the Dynamics GP and Business Central community. One of my favorite things about attending Community Summit is learning from my peers in the community and this year didn’t disappoint! I was able to attend several sessions throughout the conference and learn from many users, consultants, and even Microsoft employees.  The conference kicked off with a great keynote program on Tuesday morning. The keynote speaker was the one and only NASCAR driver, Julia Landauer. What an amazing talk she gave about being a woman race car driver and how she and her team is using technology to advance her skills while driving. One example she shared was a story about tracking her metrics during a lap. The metrics can tell her everything from her speed to when she let off on the gas or hit the breaks for example. This allows her to look at her metrics compared to a teammate and make the necessary changes
