Business value

Business processes often require documents or other files to be captured as part of the system of record. When your file is already at hand, you can save time by dragging that file onto the file upload dialog in Business Central, instead of the more cumbersome navigating through folders in a file picker window. Drag-and-drop experiences are essential to working efficiently. While this enhancement provides a minor boost to productivity and is a convenient alternative, it also puts Business Central on a path toward broader file upload experiences in future release waves.

Feature details

Improved user experience

  • The file upload dialog in Business Central has been enhanced with a clear drop area where users can drag and drop a single file.
  • No matter which business process requires uploading of documents, users can choose between dragging a file or using the more traditional file picker.
