Business value

Organizations are looking to streamline their operations through AI, automation, and empowering workers with productivity tools. When time to enter data is critical, every keystroke and mouse click counts. Business Central adopts the familiar experience from Microsoft 365 applications, such as Excel and Word, to boost efficiency for keyboard users. Access keys with key tips help users quickly explore, navigate, and activate any action in the action bar, navigation menus, and other UI elements.

  • Sequences of keystrokes can be used to navigate the user interface and activate UI elements, without leaving your current focused element.
  • Access keys are available for actions in the action bar and links in the navigation menu, regardless of whether they are assigned a specific shortcut key.
