Beyond Key Helps Businesses Transition from Legacy ERP to Cloud with Business Central Consulting

INDIANAPOLIS - Sept. 8, 2025 - PRLog -- Businesses still stuck with outdated ERP systems now have a clearer path forward. Beyond Key, a long-time Microsoft Solutions Partner, is helping companies move their financial and operational processes into the cloud with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

For many organizations, the day-to-day reality still involves juggling Excel spreadsheets, separate accounting software, and CRMs that don't talk to each other. That mix not only slows teams down but also creates messy, unreliable data. "We see companies spending hours fixing errors that should never have happened in the first place," said Ashish Sankhala, COO at Beyond Key. "Business Central changes that by putting everything into one secure, connected system."

Why businesses must move now

Beyond Key's consulting team doesn't just install software—they map processes, clean data, and train staff so the transition feels manageable. Typical projects start with a two-week discovery phase before moving into configuration, migration, and training. The company promises a "hypercare" support period during go-live to keep issues from disrupting operations.

What Beyond Key delivers

• Setting up cloud or on-premise deployments.
• Tailoring dashboards and approvals through Power BI and Teams.
• Linking systems like Shopify or ADP through ready-to-use APIs.
• Migrating data from QuickBooks, GP, NAV, or even custom ERPs.

Industry-tailored solutions

The solution fits many industries. Examples include:

• Manufacturing: IoT links, machine analytics and BOM automation.  
• Retail & Wholesale: Central inventory, POS links and AI forecasting.  
• Healthcare: HIPAA-compliant billing and secure patient data handling.  
• Nonprofits: Grant tracking, donor management and budget reports.  

Measurable Outcomes

Clients who have adopted Business Central with Beyond Key's help report faster order processing, quicker month-end closings, and fewer inventory headaches. Many also appreciate the built-in KPI dashboards, which give leadership teams visibility into progress without waiting weeks for reports.
