Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central includes core functionality to track time and costs against projects. For many project‑based organizations, this provides a solid starting point for controlling project finances and understanding profitability.
OMZY builds on these standard capabilities by extending how time and expenses are captured, categorized, and connected to project accounting. The result is a more structured and consistent way to track project effort and costs directly inside Business Central.
WHAT IS AVAILABLE IN MICROSOFT
DYNAMICS 365 BUSINESS CENTRAL
In Dynamics 365 Business Central, project time tracking is handled through timesheets. Users enter hours worked, link them to a project and task, and submit them for approval. These entries primarily support cost tracking and financial reporting.
This approach works well when:
• Projects are relatively simple
• Time is mainly required for cost allocation
• Limited differentiation is needed between types of work
How OMZY Extends Time Tracking
OMZY enhances Business Central timesheets by adding project‑focused structure around time entry, while keeping the experience inside the ERP.
At a high level, OMZY allows organizations to:
• Enter time directly against projects and project tasks
• Classify time using predefined rules (such as work type or billing relevance)
• Automatically calculate cost and billable values based on project setup
• Time entries captured in OMZY remain fully integrated with:
• Project financials
• General ledger postings
• Downstream processes such as invoicing and reporting
WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT
This ensures that time entered by teams is consistently reflected across project accounting and financial analysis.
expense tracking: from manual to integrated
OMZY introduces integrated expense reporting within Business Central, allowing expenses to be:
• Entered directly in the system
• Linked to projects and project tasks
• Categorized consistently for cost and billing purposes
Expenses recorded through OMZY can flow through:
• Project subledgers
• General ledger
• Accounts payable (when applicable) This reduces reconciliation effort and improves traceability from expense entry through to project margins.
WHEN OMZY TIME AND EXPENSE MAKES SENSE
OMZY’s approach is particularly well suited for organizations that:
Manage multiple active projects
- Require structured project cost and billing rules
- Want tighter alignment between delivery and finance teams
- Prefer to keep all project data inside Business Central
For business that have outgrown basic time and expense tracking without wanting a separate PSA tool that stays close to Business Central’s core design.
