Smarter Search in Dynamics 365 Business Central: AI-Powered “Tell Me” is Here

Have you ever struggled to find a page or report in Dynamics 365 Business Central just because you couldn’t remember the exact name?

You’re not alone—and that frustration is finally being solved.

With the upcoming 2025 Release Wave 2, Microsoft is introducing an AI-powered advanced “Tell Me” search, designed to completely change how users navigate within Business Central.

What’s New?

The enhanced “Tell Me” feature now understands what you mean, not just what you type.

Instead of relying on exact keyword matches, the system uses semantic search capabilities. This means you can enter natural queries, and Business Central will intelligently suggest the most relevant pages, reports, or actions.

To use it, simply:

• Enter your query in the search bar

• Click on “Try Advanced”

• Explore results under the Advanced tab
  

The experience is faster, smarter, and far more intuitive than before.

Why This Matters

This is more than just a UI improvement—it’s a productivity upgrade.

Efficiency Boost Users spend less time searching and more time executing tasks. No more trial-and-error with keywords.

User-Friendly Experience You no longer need to remember exact page or report names. Just describe what you’re looking for.

AI-Powered Intelligence The system understands intent, making navigation feel natural and effortless.
