Now let us move to the integration specifications:

In order to integrate Talent with Dynamics 365 Business Central, you will have to use Azure services- Logic Apps. Dynamics 365 Talent has its entities CDS, while Logic apps have connectors for CDS and Business Central. Thus, all you need to integrate the solutions is to map the entities and fields in each of the systems, and think about the business logic. You can choose from the following options as per the requirement of your business:

1.      Integrating Onboard or Attract apps in Talent with Business Central.

2.      Integrating HRM core system with HR Management in Dynamics 365 Business Central.

For the first option, we have to use the HR module in Dynamics 365 Business Central and leverage only two or three parts of Dynamics Talent. While for the second option, we have to use core HR in Dynamics 365 Talent. In the next segment, we will discuss the second option in details.

Basic Setup in Business Central

It is important to understand that you already have all the necessary HR capabilities in Dynamics 365 Talent and thus we do not need all of the same in Business Central. Hence, you will only move the data that is necessary for other realms of Business Central. Following this, you have to move the relevant data to employee tables as per business requirements.

Locating information in Talent

After you have the basic configurations, you can move with the integration process. The first step into this is to find where the employee data is located in Talent. To do the same, you have to open the list of CDS entities which can be done by using PowerApps platform.

Once these steps are covered, you can move to the technicalities and get Dynamics Talent integrated with Dynamics 365 Business Central.
