Managing a Business Central tenant across countries, subsidiaries, or departments? You don’t need to be a developer to make a meaningful impact on performance, stability, and governance. These five non-technical actions can help you improve the daily experience for users while keeping your environment clean and scalable.
- Review Active Sessions Weekly
Slowdowns or unexpected user blocks often stem from lingering sessions. Use the Admin Center to monitor and terminate active sessions that are no longer in use. This small action can prevent process collisions and performance drops.
- Use Labels in Environment and Company Names
If you’re managing multiple environments (Production, Sandbox, Testing), include identifiers like date, owner, or purpose in the name. Clear labeling helps avoid confusion, makes auditing easier, and minimizes accidental deletions.
- Remove Duplicate or Unused Companies
Training, testing, or copied companies often stay in the system long after they’re needed — using valuable resources. Review your companies periodically and clean up those that haven’t been accessed or modified.
- Set Up Data Retention Policies
To keep your system lean, configure automatic cleanup rules for outdated logs, drafts, or unposted documents. These functional settings prevent data bloat and ensure your environment remains responsive. (We will detail its functionality and usefulness in another post.)
- Audit Unused Extensions
Sometimes, installed extensions aren’t actively used. You can track their usage, version, and errors in the Admin Center. Removing unused or redundant extensions reduces update conflicts and improves overall performance.
Why It Matters
These tips don’t require technical effort — but they reflect mature tenant governance, especially for functional consultants, administrators, or team leads managing Business Central at scale.
In closing:
Your Business Central environment doesn’t just need good configurations — it needs intentional, proactive maintenance. These five actions are simple, functional, and scalable. And best of all? You can apply them today.
