Business Central
Microsoft
Business Central has supported Simplified Chinese as a platform language since release BC17.2 — but Microsoft doesn't ship the translation itself. Tectura builds and maintains the Simplified Chinese language package, so your China team gets an accurate, business-ready interface from day one.
Chinese-format financial statements and Golden Tax invoicing aren't part of standard Business Central — they're delivered through Tectura's China localization package, built for local tax and accounting rules and kept current as regulations change.
Every Business Central environment is hosted in a specific Azure region, chosen when the environment is created. For China operations, Tectura configures this upfront — typically a nearby supported region — so hosting is planned, not a surprise after go-live.
Map your global finance model against China's GAAP-aligned reporting, tax treatment, and statutory practice — so you know exactly what changes for the new entity.
Decide how the China entity fits into your Business Central tenant, choose its Azure hosting region, and bring in Tectura's China localization package for Golden Tax integration, invoicing, and statutory reporting.
Map chart of accounts, dimensions, vendors, and customers to your global framework, with dual reporting that satisfies Chinese statutory requirements and group consolidation.
Configure Golden Tax integration, invoicing workflows, and Chinese-format financial statements — plus Simplified Chinese language and local number/date formats.
Train local finance and operations teams with role-based sessions, bilingual documentation, and a support model built around how your China team works.
Validate end-to-end with your China finance team, run a structured cutover, and keep the environment aligned with group consolidation and evolving compliance requirements after go-live.
Get an instant estimate for your Business Central rollout, including local financial compliance and localization requirements.
Future-proof your operations with a seamless migration to the cloud, unlocking real-time insights, enhanced security, and AI capabilities.

Yes. Business Central supports business operations in China, with proven deployments across various industries. Business Central has supported Simplified Chinese as a platform language since release BC17.2. Microsoft provides the platform capability, while Tectura builds and maintains the Simplified Chinese language package to deliver an accurate, business-ready user experience for China teams from day one. For China-specific requirements, Tectura provides localization services, including business process adaptation, statutory reporting needs, integrations, and industry-specific enhancements. With deep experience in China market requirements, Tectura helps companies configure Business Central to support local operations while maintaining alignment with global business processes.
No. Microsoft does not ship first-party China tax or Golden Tax functionality as part of standard Business Central. Chinese-format financial statements and Golden Tax invoicing integration are delivered through partner-built extensions published on Microsoft Marketplace.
Yes. This is typically approached as a rollout rather than a new implementation: mapping your global chart of accounts to Chinese statutory requirements, selecting a localization app, deciding where the China-facing environment will be hosted, and configuring dual reporting for local and group needs.
Business Central Online is accessed through a web browser, or through desktop and mobile apps published by Microsoft. If you already have an environment, your administrator provides the sign-in link. There is no general public download for the cloud version; it is provisioned through your Microsoft partner.
Timelines depend on the complexity of your global template, the localization app selected, and the scope of data migration. A focused rollout to a single Chinese entity is typically faster than a first-time full implementation, but should be scoped individually rather than quoted generically.
Business Central is sold and supported exclusively through Microsoft's global partner network. Partners handle licensing, implementation, localization, and ongoing support.
