Hi team

Friend of mine working for retail company and they are considering BC SaaS. The question they have is can business central handle 250k or 500k sales order line (invoice line) per month? This is for SaaS? If yes what is the limit?

He saw the below numbers and he is afraid BC is not capable to handle that many transactions per month.

Does anyone has a better idea or better info from Microsoft to share?

Thanks

Hi, the data in this post comes from a webinar given by Microsoft. Microsoft is also optimizing performance in the latest new version, which does not mean that this is the upper limit of BC.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Mr Zhu

This was really helpful. I hope Microsoft provides some guideline here. I mean like what is the upper limit here? Is should be something but what is it.
