Drop anything.
It becomes a draft in Business Central.
Invoices, scans, phone photos, e-invoices — BC Sidekick reads them, validates every number, and stages a draft in Dynamics 365 Business Central, right in your browser's side panel. You just confirm.
- Any format
- PDF, XML e-invoice, scan, or phone photo
- Zero setup
- No templates to build, no OCR to train
- Drafts only
- Posting stays behind your BC controls
Reads what your vendors actually send — structured e-invoices parsed natively, everything else read by AI
From any document to a validated BC draft
No templates, no OCR training, no re-keying. BC Sidekick reads whatever lands on your desk, proves the numbers hold, and stages the draft — inside Business Central.
Universal Drop
PDFs, XML e-invoices — Factur-X/ZUGFeRD, UBL, and PEPPOL parsed natively — plus scans and phone photos. No templates to build, no OCR to configure. Or skip the drop entirely and forward the email to your intake mailbox.
Validated, never blind
Every extraction passes deterministic checks before a human sees it: line sums must add up, tax and totals must reconcile, the vendor must match your master data. What reaches your queue is already arithmetically sound.
Mapping memory
BC Sidekick learns each vendor’s G/L accounts from your approvals. The second invoice from the same vendor arrives pre-mapped — you review a filled-in draft, not a blank form.
Autopilot with earned trust
After repeated clean approvals for a vendor, new invoices become Business Central drafts automatically. One correction from you and that vendor’s trust is revoked — back to manual review.
Posting stays in BC
BC Sidekick only ever creates inert drafts. Your posting routines, approval workflows, and permissions remain the gate — and every action runs under the user’s own Business Central permissions via Entra ID sign-in.
Works where you work
A side panel inside Business Central in Chrome and Edge — no tab switching, no separate app to live in. Team leads get a review-queue dashboard for throughput, trust levels, and exceptions.
Drop. Review. Draft in BC.
Three steps — and after enough clean approvals, autopilot quietly takes over the first two for your most predictable vendors.
Drop
Drag a file into the side panel — or forward the email. PDF, XML e-invoice, scan, or phone photo: BC Sidekick reads it as-is, without templates or setup.
Review & approve
The extraction arrives already validated — line sums, tax totals, vendor match — and pre-mapped from your past approvals. Fix anything that’s off; every correction teaches it.
Draft in BC
One confirm and an inert draft lands in Business Central, mapped and ready for your usual workflow. Posting stays with your team, your controls, your permissions.
Autonomy that is earned, one vendor at a time
BC Sidekick never asks you to trust it in general. It earns trust per vendor from your own clean approvals — and loses it the moment you correct anything.
Earned per vendor, never assumed
Trust builds from your own behaviour: repeated approvals with no corrections. Each vendor earns it separately.
Still only a draft
Autopilot changes who creates the draft — not what a draft is. Nothing is ever posted automatically.
One correction revokes trust
Touch anything on an autopilot draft and that vendor drops back to manual review. Instantly, automatically.

Built to be trusted by the people who own the ledger
BC Sidekick is designed for finance teams: it works inside your identity, inside your permissions, and always one step short of the ledger.
Multi-tenant Entra ID sign-in
Users sign in with their existing Microsoft Entra ID account. No new passwords, no shadow identities to manage.
Your BC roles apply
Actions taken on behalf of a user mirror their Business Central roles and permissions. BC Sidekick can never do more than the person using it.
No training on your data
Customer data is never used to train AI models. Your invoices are processed to serve your tenant — and nothing else.
International vendors covered
Overseas suppliers sending Factur-X/ZUGFeRD, UBL, or PEPPOL e-invoices? Parsed natively as structured data — not run through OCR — so cross-border AP just works.
Nothing is ever posted automatically
Drafts are the ceiling of what BC Sidekick can create. Your existing Business Central controls remain the only gate to the ledger.
