Business Central is the system of record.
We are the system of answers.

Brand margin, budget variance and receivables by customer are already in Business Central. Lens shows them live, synced daily and on demand, so nobody rebuilds them in Excel.

Product demo on sample data. Culinary Ventures Group and its brands are invented for this demo; none is a Zfense Labs customer.

Your ledger, read by brand and outlet. Every day, not month end.

Posted in Business Central

  • Revenue, COGS, and opex as GL dimension entries by brand
  • Budget entries and actuals as separate ledger records
  • Customer invoices in AR with due dates and settlement terms

Lens

  • Brand P&L from revenue to EBITDA, for any period
  • Actuals versus budget by brand or cost center, period on period
  • Receivables by brand, with aging and expected settlement

Connect once, and every statement follows, by brand and outlet.

Connect read-only

Sign in with Microsoft and connect Business Central once. Lens reads the ledger and never writes back.

We map your chart of accounts to brands and outlets

Before go-live, we take the accounts and dimensions you already post to and turn them into views by brand, cost center and entity.

Drill from group to outlet to cost line

Start at the group, open a brand, then open an outlet. Compare any level with the last period or last year.

Answers come from the ledger, and each person sees only their part of it.

Investigate

Ask, in plain English, why margin dropped two points. Lens answers from the ledger and shows the rows behind every figure.

Claude and ChatGPT on the MCP server

Connect Claude or ChatGPT through the MCP server, an open standard that gives an assistant a set of tools. The assistant reads the same data under the same rules as the dashboard, and sees only what its user can see.

Access by brand, location and outlet

Grants follow the hierarchy the statements already use. A branch manager's view stops at the branch.

One finance team, on Lens and Xtract

With Lens, a Dubai restaurant group has the month's statements two days after month end instead of two weeks, live for every brand and outlet. The same group runs Xtract for the invoices every multi-site business knows: one vendor, a stream of bills, usage spread across every location. Xtract codes each line to its location and cost center and ties the split back to the total, with nobody keying it in.
