STAEDEAN Strengthens its Data Management Solution stack for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with the launch of Data Quality Studio.
Amsterdam, The Netherlands, April 2026 — STAEDEAN is pleased to announce the launch of its latest solution, ‘Data Quality Studio’ for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. It enables organizations to define, enforce, and manage data quality policies without heavy customization or development, and improve the quality of data within the ERP. The launch of Data Quality Studio is a strategic step in strengthening STAEDEAN’s Data Management Solution portfolio across the Microsoft ecosystem.
For many organizations using Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, data challenges slow teams down and can result in financial losses. In fact, poor data quality costs organizations an average of $12.9 million (Source: Gartner) annually, and errors become exponentially more expensive the later they are detected. Additionally, as Microsoft and other ERP players move towards an AI-powered ERP platform, having reliable, accurate, and governed data is no longer a ‘good to have’ but a must-have.
What is Data Quality Studio for Business Central?
Data Quality Studio for Business Central helps you keep data clean from the moment it is created. It enables configurable validation rules, duplicate checks, warnings, and error controls directly inside Business Central, so teams can prevent bad data before it impacts operations, reporting, and customer experience. We share key highlights of the solution below:
|
No-code plug-and-play solution Configure rules without any development and quickly adapt to changing business needs. |
|
Manage data quality where your teams already work Instead of checking data outside Business Central or relying on spreadsheets, teams can manage data quality rules directly inside the ERP. For example, an admin can set up rules for customers, vendors, and contacts from one central workspace. |
|
Set different rules for different business scenarios Our solution lets you apply checks only when they matter. For example, you can make “Payment Terms” mandatory only for customers in the US, instead of forcing the same rule for every customer. |
|
Help users enter complete and correct data Teams can define rules that guide users during data entry. For example, a customer record cannot be saved if the email address is missing, the credit limit is outside the allowed range, or/and a required field is left blank. |
|
Check important fields against expected formats Data Quality Studio helps ensure critical information follows the right format. For example, email addresses can be checked for a valid format, phone numbers can follow a defined pattern, and credit limits can stay within an approved range. |
|
Prevent duplicate customers, vendors, and contacts Our solution can check whether a new record looks like one that already exists. For example, if a user creates a customer with the same name and phone number as an existing customer, Data Quality Studio can flag it before the duplicate is saved. |
|
Update rules without losing control As business needs change, teams can create and manage new versions of their data quality policies. For example, you can prepare an updated customer validation policy, test it, and activate only the approved version. |
|
Choose between a warning and a hard stop Not every issue needs to block the user. For example, our solution can show a warning when a possible duplicate is found but block the record completely when a mandatory field is missing or an email format is invalid. |
Why Choose Data Quality Studio for Business Central?
Bad data often starts small: a missing payment term, an incorrectly formatted email address, a duplicate customer record, or inconsistent vendor information. But over time, these issues slow down onboarding, create reporting gaps, affect operations, and reduce trust in the data your teams depend on.
Data Quality Studio for Business Central helps businesses prevent these issues at the point of entry by guiding users to enter complete, consistent, and reliable customer, vendor, and contact data directly inside Business Central.
With configurable policies, validation rules, duplicate checks, and warnings or errors, teams can take control of master data quality without relying on manual reviews or cleanup later.
|
Speed up customer and vendor onboarding: Make sure key information is captured correctly the first time, so new customers, vendors, and contacts can be created without unnecessary back-and-forth. |
|
Improve the quality of master data: Standardize critical fields such as email addresses, phone numbers, payment terms, credit limits, and other business-specific information. |
|
Prevent errors before they spread: Catch incomplete, incorrect, or duplicate data during data entry, before it impacts transactions, reporting, or customer service. |
|
Give teams clear data entry guidance: Use active policies to guide users with warnings or errors, helping them understand what needs to be corrected and why. |
|
Support ongoing data governance: Manage and update data quality policies as business rules change, helping teams maintain consistency across departments. |
|
Build a stronger foundation for reporting, automation, and AI: Reliable data improves decision-making, reduces downstream rework, and prepares your organization for more advanced digital initiatives. |
