SUMMARY:How to make your finance function automated & AI‑driven with Business Central
DESCRIPTION: EVENT OVERVIEW\nFinance teams are being asked to deliver deeper insights\, faster reporting\, and more strategic guidance\, yet many are still weighed down by manual reconciliations\, invoice processing\, and spreadsheet‑heavy planning.\nWhile the goal is a modern\, AI‑enabled finance environment\, the path to get there often feels slow\, complex\, and resource‑intensive.\nThis 90‑minute online session is for finance\, operations\, and technology leaders across Australia\, New Zealand\, and Southeast Asia who want to modernise without embarking on a multi‑year ERP transformation. You’ll see how organisations are using Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central\, Copilot\, Continia\, Solver\, and Microsoft Fabric to build a clean\, automated\, insight‑rich finance stack — delivered through a staged\, low‑risk approach using the Ascent rapid deployment framework. \nYou don’t need to be an ERP expert.

SUMMARY:Microsoft Fundraising & Engagement Retires End of Year 2026 - What's next for non profits?
DESCRIPTION: EVENT OVERVIEW\nMicrosoft Fundraising & Engagement (F&E) will reach end‑of‑support this year on 31 December 2026\, marking a significant shift for nonprofits across Australia\, New Zealand\, United Kingdom and Southeast Asia who still rely on F&E to manage donors\, campaigns\, grants\, events\, and supporter journeys.\nFor many organisations\, Fundraising & Engagement has become deeply embedded\, with years of data\, custom entities\, integrations\, reporting dependencies\, and fundraising workflows built around it.\nTransitioning away from Microsoft Fundraising & Engagement isn’t a simple solution swap. It requires careful consideration of your current environment’s complexity\, future requirements\, and the impact on your fundraising operations and supporter experience. \nThis 45 minute online session is designed to give not-for-profits clarity on what the F&E retirement announcement means in practical terms\, what will continue to function after December 2026\, what will cease\, and what risks organisations should be aware of as they plan their next steps. \nYou’ll also see how modern fundraising platforms like Klevr Fundraising provide a supported alternative within the Microsoft ecosystem\, and how eligible organisations can access a complimentary\, Microsoft‑funded F&E Migration Assessment. \nWhether you’ve already started planning or haven’t yet begun\, this session provides a practical\, example led walkthrough of how to navigate the transition smoothly and use it as an opportunity to modernise fundraising operations. \nThis event has passed. You can find the webinar recording below: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				KEY TAKEAWAYS\n\nUnderstanding the F&E Retirement AnnouncementWhat Microsoft’s decision means\, key dates\, and what changes after 31 December 2026.\nMigration Risks & ConsiderationsHow to assess data structures\, integrations\, reporting dependencies\, customisations\, and user adoption impacts\, and how to avoid a “lift and shift” approach that simply recreates existing challenges.\nOpportunities to Modernise FundraisingHow nonprofits can improve donor management\, campaigns\, grants\, events\, supporter journeys\, and reporting through modern tools\, AI driven insights\, automated data processing\, and intelligent supporter engagement capabilities not available in F&E today.\nComplimentary Migration AssessmentWhat a structured migration assessment involves\, including how eligible organisations can access a Microsoft‑funded F&E Migration Assessment that outlines effort\, risks\, timelines\, and future‑state options within the Microsoft ecosystem.\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				WHY ATTEND\nYour organisation still relies on Microsoft Fundraising & Engagement and needs clarity on what happens after December 2026.\n\nYou want to understand the risks of staying on an unsupported fundraising platform.\nYou need guidance on how to migrate to a new platform without disrupting fundraising operations.\nYou’re exploring modern fundraising platforms but want to stay within the Microsoft ecosystem.\nYou’re interested in accessing a complimentary\, Microsoft‑funded migration assessment.\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				EVENT HOSTS\nSpecialists in nonprofit CRM\, fundraising operations\, Microsoft Cloud for Nonprofit\, and modern fundraising platforms.\n\nPhilip Duggan\, Walkerscott\nHarry Cuthbert\, Walkerscott\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nDate: Wednesday\, 5 August 2026\nTime: 45 minutes (Start time 11AM SGT/ 1PM AEST/ 3PM NZST)\nLocation: Microsoft Teams (Online Webinar)\n\nRegister Here: Click here. \nFor more information\, please contact us.

SUMMARY:Moving to e‑Invoicing & e‑Documents in Business Central
DESCRIPTION: EVENT OVERVIEW\nFor many Business Central finance teams\, invoice processing remains one of the most manual and time consuming parts of the month.\nApprovals need chasing\, invoice data is re‑keyed from PDFs or paper\, and matching documents to purchase orders is often done by hand\, all of which becomes harder as invoice volumes grow. Larger trading partners and government agencies across Australia and New Zealand are also beginning to ask suppliers whether they can send and receive structured e‑invoices. \nThe reality is that this transition won’t happen overnight. Some suppliers already send structured e‑invoices\, while many will continue sending PDFs or paper. Finance teams need one consistent\, streamlined process that handles all document types without adding extra work for Accounts Payable or approvers. \nThis 45 minute online session\, delivered in partnership with Continia\, will walk through the current state of e‑invoicing in Australia and New Zealand\, demonstrate an end‑to‑end e‑documents process inside Business Central\, and outline clear next steps for organisations at different stages of maturity. \nWhether your organisation is just beginning to explore e‑invoicing or already receiving structured documents\, this session provides a practical\, example led walkthrough of how to adopt e‑documents smoothly and modernise invoice processing. \n			\n				Register Now\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				KEY TAKEAWAYS\n\nUnderstanding What’s Driving the Move to e‑InvoicingWhy organisations across Australia and New Zealand are considering e‑invoicing now\, current market direction\, and how government agencies are adopting Peppol e‑Invoicing.\nKey Risks & Considerations When Moving to e‑DocumentsWhat finance teams need to think through when adopting e‑documents  including data structures\, integrations\, approval workflows\, compliance requirements\, and how the change impacts day‑to‑day invoice processing.\nHow Continia Supports e‑Documents in Business CentralAn overview of Continia’s capabilities\, including three way matching against purchase orders and receipts\, and how the solution enables end‑to‑end processing across e‑invoices\, PDFs\, and scanned documents.\nLive Demonstration: End‑to‑End e‑Documents ScenarioA practical walkthrough showing how e‑invoicing and e‑documents work inside Business Central\, from document capture through to processing and posting.\nGuidance for Organisations at Different Stages of MaturityRecommended next steps\, adoption pathways\, and how businesses can begin their e‑invoicing journey today.\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				WHY ATTEND\nYour organisation still relies on manual invoice processing and wants to reduce time spent on approvals and data entry.\n\nYou need clarity on how e‑invoicing works in practice within Business Central.\nYou want to understand how to adopt e‑documents without disrupting existing finance workflows.\nYou’re exploring automation options but want to stay within the Microsoft ecosystem.\nYou’re interested in seeing a live demonstration of Continia e‑Documents inside Business Central.\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				EVENT HOSTS\nSpecialists in Business Central\, finance automation\, and e‑invoicing adoption.\n\nRichard Hensby\, Continia\nPhilip Duggan\, Walkerscott\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nDate: Monday\, 17 August 2026\nTime: 45 minutes (Start time 3PM NZST / 1PM AEST)\nLocation: Microsoft Teams (Online Webinar)\n\nRegister Here: Click here. \nFor more information\, please contact us.
