What Microsoft says
This feature introduces a dedicated task pane in Business Central that displays all tasks generated by the agents. The task pane appears as an additional panel in the user interface and can be opened from anywhere in Business Central. Tasks include suggestions, validations, follow‑ups access to draft documents, and other agent‑initiated actions. Users can review task details, navigate directly to the affected record, complete tasks, or dismiss them. This improvement primarily benefits roles that rely heavily on AI‑driven workflows—such as accountants, sales people, and managers—who often engage with multiple agents throughout the day. The task pane reduces friction by collecting all insights in a single location, minimizing missed tasks and improving throughput. Business Value: The Show all agent tasks on a separate task pane feature help organizations get more value from Microsoft Copilot in Business Central by giving users a single, structured place to review and act on AI‑generated tasks. Instead of relying on notifications scattered across different pages, users gain a clear, consolidated overview of all tasks created by agents working in finance, purchasing, sales, and operations.
