Connect Microsoft Dynmics GP and Microsoft Power BI

Connecting Microsoft Dynamics GP and Microsoft Power BI for a company could enable the transfer of financial and operational data from Dynamics GP into Power BI. This would make it possible to create interactive reports and dashboards, supporting more informed decision-making by providing access to up-to-date business insights based on data stored in Dynamics GP.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between Microsoft Dynmics GP and Microsoft Power BI around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect Microsoft Dynmics GP and Microsoft Power BI?

A company that uses both Microsoft Dynamics GP and Microsoft Power BI could benefit from connecting these systems to enable more efficient and accurate data-driven decision making. Without a connection, users may need to manually export data from Dynamics GP and import it into Power BI, which can lead to duplicate data entry, increased risk of errors, and inconsistencies between the systems. Over time, this manual process could cause records to drift apart, making it difficult to trust the accuracy of reports and analyses. Decisions made on outdated or mismatched figures could affect business performance and strategic planning. If a connection were established, it could allow for the transfer of financial, sales, inventory, and operational data from Dynamics GP to Power BI, supporting up-to-date dashboards and reports. The specific types of data that could be exchanged depend on what each system makes available through its API and are determined on a case-by-case basis.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what Microsoft Dynmics GP and Microsoft Power BI make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
