Expense Agent overview for Business Central - Business CentralWhat we know: According to Microsoft Learn, Expense Agent is a production-ready preview and requires users to review expenses before submitting their report. The BC29 notes classify AI-driven approvals and restricting the web app to assigned projects as public preview. Microsoft documents mobile preview access for Business Central online through TestFlight and Google Play, requiring iOS 17 or later and Android 14 or later, respectively, and the same credentials as the web app. The expense configuration lets administrators enable AI policy evaluation, display project fields and determine whether users see only assigned projects or all active projects.
Proposed angle: Build a proposal around a fictional business trip: capture a receipt, allocate it to a project and examine its approval. Separate extraction, deterministic rules, assisted policy evaluation and human decisions to identify useful questions for consultants and project leads.
What remains to verify: Effective access to the preview and its behavior under a specific permissions and policy configuration have not been tested. We have not watched the demonstrations or measured extraction accuracy, time savings or processing performance.
