Who it's for

Functional consultants or business users inside the Dynamics 365 ecosystem who need to enable a specific feature.

Who should skip it

Data scientists or anyone interested in the forecasting model itself.

Pros

  • Quick walkthrough of a specific product feature.
  • Up-to-date with the current Business Central interface.
  • Clear, step-by-step instructions for setup.

Cons

  • Zero detail on the underlying Azure AI model; it's a complete black box.
  • The 'exercise' is a multiple-choice quiz, not a hands-on lab.
  • Title is misleading; this is not an AI/ML module, but a product configuration guide.

The 'Enhanced Forecasting' section promised to use Azure AI, but it never explains what model is running. What are its assumptions? How is it trained? It’s a total black box. The Cortana Intelligence API gets a single mention, then it's just about navigating UI menus in Business Central: check this box, set that period. It’s purely a setup guide.

The exercise wasn't even a sandbox. It was a multiple-choice quiz asking if you remembered which toggle to flip. I guess for a functional consultant who just needs to turn this on for a client, it's a fast way to get the steps. For anyone with a data background, though, calling this an 'AI' module feels like a real stretch. It's a feature walkthrough, that's it.
