This is the fifth video in the video series “Making the most of your Business Central Trial”. This video series is intended to help new users on their journey with the Business Central Trial, although it may also prove helpful for those already familiar and using Business Central.

In this video I explore the Business Central Admin Centre and go through how to create a new Sandbox.

Along the way I show the permissions required to access the Admin Centre and use cases for creating and using Sandboxes.

I also explain that although they are typically used in the development cycle of new customisations for Business Central, they can also be used to investigate new core Business Central features prior to enabling them in your Production environment.

I hope you enjoy it 🙂

Thanks for reading!
