The post OnActuate Newsletter: June 2026 appeared first on OnActuate.

When was the last time you drove somewhere new without opening your GPS? For most of us, it’s second nature. We don’t think about it as a “special” tool anymore, it’s just part of how we get from point A to point B.

That’s exactly where AI is heading in the workplace. Not a buzzword. Not an add-on, but an everyday essential that guides decisions, enhances efficiency, and helps you adapt. It is as natural as opening your GPS when you drive.

Why AI Is Becoming “Everyday”

Businesses today are facing more complexity than ever: supply chain disruptions, rising costs, talent challenges, and rapidly changing customer expectations.

AI doesn’t replace the driver; it’s the quiet co-pilot working behind the scenes to:

• Provide real-time insights so you don’t miss what’s ahead
• Automate repetitive tasks so you can focus on strategy
• Predict outcomes so you can plan with confidence

Just like GPS makes every trip smoother, AI is becoming a baseline expectation for how modern organizations operate.

Everyday AI in Action

Here’s how AI is already part of daily work across industries:

Finance Teams
AI highlights anomalies, forecasts risks, and automates reporting. It’s like having a daily check on your financial health without the manual digging.

HR & Payroll
AI assists in workforce planning, reduces payroll errors, and streamlines recruiting. Instead of HR teams being buried in admin, AI frees them to focus on people.

Supply Chain Leaders
AI-powered visibility ensures you know where your products are, where delays may occur, and how to respond. It’s the difference between reacting late and staying ahead.

“AI is as revolutionary as mobile phones and the Internet.”— Bill Gates

From “Optional” to “Essential”

Think back to when GPS first arrived; it was seen as a novelty. Today, we wouldn’t drive without it.

AI is on the same path. Businesses who embrace it now gain efficiency, resilience, and a competitive edge. Those who wait risk getting left behind on the wrong road.

The question isn’t “should we use AI?” but “where will it make the biggest impact for us right now?”

One of the easiest ways to start is by exploring the AI capabilities already built into tools your teams use every day. For many organizations, that means looking at Microsoft 365 Copilot and emerging AI agents that can automate routine work, surface information faster, and support employees directly within familiar workflows.

Your Everyday Advantage with OnActuate

At OnActuate, we help organizations accelerate with AI built into:

• Microsoft Dynamics 365 (ERP, CRM) & Power Platform for predictive insights and automation
• Dayforce HCM for workforce intelligence and payroll accuracy
• Pre-Built AI Agents that bring industry-specific AI tools to Finance, HR, and Supply Chain, and automate data flow between Dayforce and Dynamics 365

The Microsoft Dynamics 365 Release Wave 1 for 2026 introduces a new wave of AI-powered enhancements across the platform, continuing Microsoft’s focus on Copilot, agent-driven experiences, and usability improvements across ERP and CRM applications. Rolling out between April and September 2026, this release includes hundreds of updates across Dynamics 365 Finance, Supply Chain Management, Sales, Customer Service, and more – designed to help organizations work smarter while strengthening governance and control.

From what we see in real-world environments, these updates go beyond feature additions. They directly impact how finance and operations teams work day to day – reducing manual effort, improving accuracy, and helping organizations adopt standard functionality with greater confidence. This release also builds on Microsoft’s larger strategy of embedding AI into everyday business processes while refining core controls, workflows, and user experiences to support scalable, compliant operations.

Our team has reviewed the official release documentation and compiled key highlights for Dynamics 365 Finance to help you understand what’s new and what to prepare for.

Check out these key updates in the Quarterly Capabilities Update: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Release Wave 1 – Q1 2026.

Features releasing in April to June 2026 

While many of these enhancements introduce new capabilities, several also address common operational pain points our customers regularly encounter – particularly in financial close, reconciliation, compliance, and payment processing.

• For example, Delay settlement from journal posting resolves a long-standing challenge by separating payment posting from settlement processing. This reduces operational bottlenecks when errors occur and lowers the level of manual intervention required – something many finance teams struggle with during peak processing periods.
• Similarly, features like Preview automatic bank reconciliation matching results help improve trust in automation by allowing validation before results are committed. From ongoing support and optimization engagements, our consultants consistently see that preview and validation capabilities play a key role in improving end-user confidence and reducing reconciliation-related exceptions.
• Regulatory reporting enhancements within Globalization Studio also reflect Microsoft’s continued investment in compliance and audit readiness – an area where organizations frequently rely on expert guidance to ensure configurations remain aligned with changing regulatory requirements.

Download the full release plan from Microsoft’s website. 

Features in latest service update 10.0.47 

• Preview of release: January 2026 

• General availability of release (self-update): March 2026 

• General availability of release (auto-update): April 2026 

• Build Number: 10.0.2527 

Service updates like 10.0.47 deliver meaningful improvements that often don’t grab headlines but make a measurable difference in system performance, stability, and usability. These enhancements span general ledger, tax calculation, subscription billing, budgeting, and accounts receivable – areas where organizations depend on consistency and accuracy every day.

In beverage and FMCG operations, delivering the perfect batch requires precision – ingredient consistency, water quality, temperature control, filtration, and more. Yet many bottlers still run their business on fragmented systems that don’t communicate. When your Human Capital Management (HCM) system can’t talk to your Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, the result is a costly “Silo Tax”: delayed analytics, inefficient labor planning, errors, rising costs, and reduced margins.

Water is the highest‑volume ingredient in most beverage recipes – and increasingly scarce in many regions. Inefficient water use is not only an operational cost but a sustainability concern, aligning closely with broader environmental commitments.

The Vision: Moving Beyond the Spreadsheet

Today’s beverage market shifts quickly – seasonal fluctuations, competitive promotions, changing consumer tastes, and evolving supply constraints. Bottlers often plug gaps with manual workarounds or standalone point solutions, which worsens fragmentation.

To compete, FMCG firms are moving toward a centralized, data‑first operating model where:

• Data is accessible across all corporate systems
• Predictive analytics replace guesswork
• AI‑driven insights enable faster decisions
• Leaders have real‑time visibility across the value chain

A unified data model delivers the “single source of truth” needed to eliminate inconsistent records, reduce errors, and ensure compliance.

The Power of Integration: Dayforce + Dynamics 365

Labor data is one of the strongest drivers of operational performance, but at many companies it lives in a silo. Integrating Dayforce HCM with Microsoft Dynamics 365 closes the gap between HR and Operations, enabling faster, more informed decision‑making.

Integrated Scheduling & Operations

Workforce management data from Dayforce can directly support warehouse efficiency and sales operations in Dynamics – ensuring the right labor is aligned to the right tasks at the right time.

Real‑Time Impact

With shared, real‑time analytics, managers can immediately identify labor gaps, overtime risks, or shift adjustments – reducing costs before they occur, not after.

Modern Employee Experience

Automation and digital tools reduce manual tasks, simplify workflows, and improve the employee experience – all of which strengthen retention and support long‑term operational stability.

Streamlined Processes & Automation

An integrated ecosystem eliminates repetitive work by automating data flows such as:

• New hires automatically created in ERP
• Salary changes synced for payroll and financial planning
• Terminations instantly reflected for costing and access control

Leveraging Industry Enhancements

By enhancing Microsoft Dynamics 365 with specialized FMCG and beverage capabilities (including TPM, DSD, and route management), bottlers gain deeper end‑to‑end visibility. This enables:

• Better promotional planning
• Clear profit tracking on trade promotions
• Faster forecasting
• Linked financial + operational insights

The post The “Silo Tax”: How Disconnected Systems Shrink Margins in FMCG appeared first on OnActuate.

At Dayforce Discover, Dayforce’s premier annual workforce strategy event, OnActuate participated in a panel on how public sector organizations can modernize HCM and payroll while staying true to a people-first mission. The session, People-first, tech-driven: Best practices for public sector transformation, brought together subject-matter experts with hands-on experience driving change across government and public services. 

Together, the panelists shared practical lessons from real-world public sector transformations – from modernizing payroll to implementing technology that supports entire communities. Below are the top four takeaways from the session for public sector leaders planning or navigating their own Human Capital Management (HCM) transformation journeys. 

The Dayforce Discover 2025 panel featured insights from (L-R): Thomas Noorkah, Director of Financial Systems, City of Columbus; Marnie Larson, VP of HCM Practice, OnActuate; Simran Kalsi-Deol, Partner, EY; and Gianluca Cairo, VP, Operations & Strategy, Dayforce.

1. People-First Isn’t a Slogan – It’s a Strategy 

Successful transformation starts by designing technology around real human needs. In the public sector, that means ensuring systems are intuitive for employees, managers, and HR teams who rely on them every day. When technology simplifies work, increases trust in data, and supports better decision-making, adoption follows naturally. 

The most effective programs treat technology as an enabler – not the end goal. Clear communication about why change is happening and how it benefits employees is just as important as the software itself. 

Key takeaway: If users don’t see themselves in the solution, even the best technology will fall short. 

2. Legacy Systems Create Inevitable Turning Points 

Many public sector organizations reach modernization not by choice, but by necessity. Decades-old systems introduce risk, inefficiency, and frustration – often becoming barriers to serving employees and constituents effectively. 

Modern HCM platforms provide a trusted digital backbone that replaces fragmented, error-prone processes with consistency, transparency, and resilience. Modernization becomes less about replacing software and more about creating a foundation for long-term service delivery. 

Key takeaway: Waiting too long increases risk; proactive modernization creates momentum and confidence. 

3. Change Management Is the Make-or-Break Factor 

Large-scale transformation requires more than project plans and technical expertise. Stakeholder alignment, executive sponsorship, and realistic resourcing are critical from day one. Equally important is acknowledging the realities of long-tenured workforces and addressing change fatigue head-on. 

Effective programs invest early in engagement, training, and communication – often partnering with dedicated change management experts to reinforce adoption at every level of the organization. 

Key takeaway: Transformation slows down when change management is an afterthought. 

4. Go-Live Is the Starting Line, Not the Finish 

Digital transformation doesn’t end when a system is deployed. Leading organizations adopt a mindset of continuous modernization – using SaaS platforms to evolve alongside workforce expectations, regulatory changes, and community needs. 

Ongoing optimization, regular process reviews, and openness to new capabilities ensure technology continues to deliver value long after implementation. 

Key takeaway: The day improvement stops is the day progress stalls.

Advice for Leaders Starting Their Journey 

For public sector leaders embarking on HCM transformation, the guidance is clear: 

• Start with process review and efficiency improvements before implementation 

• Align vision, culture, and technology from the outset 

• Engage employees early and often 

• Be bold, but grounded in purpose 

Technology can accelerate change – but only when people are united behind a shared strategy.

Moving Forward 

Public sector transformation is complex, but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With a people-first mindset, strong change management, and the right technology partner, organizations can modernize with confidence and create lasting impact for their workforce and the communities they serve. 

OnActuate is an experienced Dayforce and Microsoft implementation partner helping public sector organizations modernize HCM and payroll with a focus on adoption, outcomes, and long-term value. Schedule your free consultation today.

The post People-First, Tech-Driven: 4 Things Public Sector Leaders Get Right in HCM Transformation appeared first on OnActuate.

Seattle, WA (January 2026): Public sector employers across North America are modernizing HR and payroll to reduce risk, strengthen compliance, and gain real-time workforce insight. Recently, two local government organizations – Randall County, Texas and the Town of Tecumseh, Ontario – went live on Dayforce, a cloud-based HCM platform, with OnActuate as their implementation partner, continuing a growing pattern of successful public sector deployments.

Different Workforce Models, One Proven Platform

Different in geography and workforce size – Randall County, Texas with more than 600 employees, and the Town of Tecumseh, Ontario with approximately 200 – both shared a common priority: modernizing HR and payroll to better support their workforce. Each organization recently went live on Dayforce (HR, Payroll, and Time & Attendance) with OnActuate, replacing legacy, manual systems with a modern, cloud-based platform designed to scale with public sector needs.

Both organizations required sophisticated workforce management to support varied schedules, meal breaks, shift differentials, and overtime calculations – while following different operational paths. Tecumseh manages five unions and complex cross-department payroll workflows, while Randall County’s lean HR and payroll team required a streamlined solution that could address evolving U.S. overtime reporting requirements. In both cases, OnActuate partnered closely with stakeholders to configure Dayforce in alignment with each organization’s operating model while applying a consistent, proven delivery approach.

Trusted Dayforce Delivery for the Public Sector

These go-lives reflect OnActuate’s continued momentum delivering Dayforce solutions for public sector organizations across North America. With experience supporting governments of varying size and complexity – from highly unionized municipal environments to lean county operations – OnActuate helps customers realize Dayforce value faster while navigating compliance, labor rules, and workforce complexity. As an early member of the Dayforce Partner Network, OnActuate remains a trusted delivery partner for organizations modernizing their workforce operations.

“We’re proud to see organizations like the Town of Tecumseh and Randall County go live on Dayforce with OnActuate as their implementation partner,” said Richard Wells, Head of Public Sector, Dayforce. “Across the public sector, Dayforce helps governments streamline HR and payroll, strengthen compliance, and better support their employees and communities. OnActuate’s delivery strength and public sector expertise make them a trusted partner for Dayforce customers.”

What’s Next: Building Momentum Together

OnActuate is building on its momentum as a go-to partner for the public sector – while expanding its practice to support more commercial organizations – through a collaborative approach that brings together Dayforce, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and OnActuate’s implementation services. As one of a limited number of partners with deep expertise implementing Dayforce and the full Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Power Platform suite, OnActuate helps organizations modernize workforce and finance operations with reduced integration complexity; and with Dayforce and Dynamics 365 both hosted on Microsoft Azure, customers benefit from a secure, scalable cloud foundation.

OnActuate is further extending this value through AI-enabled innovation, including the development of intelligent agents that connect Dayforce and Dynamics 365 to automate tasks, surface insights, and support faster, better decision-making across HR and finance.

“Public sector organizations are under increasing pressure to modernize HR and payroll while maintaining compliance and service quality,” said Marnie Larson, VP – HCM Practice, OnActuate. “These go-lives reflect our deep experience delivering Dayforce for government employers with complex workforce needs. By combining proven implementation practices with emerging AI innovation, we’re helping organizations move beyond system replacement to real operational transformation.”

There are feature enhancements and bug fixes in this release. Click here for more details. 

Features Spotlight

Here are three features that we are especially excited about for our customers.

1. Delay settlement from journal posting: This feature addresses payment journal posting and settlement that are tightly coupled, meaning any settlement error blocks the entire payment posting. This can cause operational delays, increased manual intervention, and business risk.

By enabling this feature:

• Payments are no longer blocked by settlement errors. Valid payments post successfully, even if settlement fails.
• Operational efficiency improves by reducing manual rework and bottlenecks.
• Cash flow visibility and reporting are enhanced: payments are reflected immediately, while settlements can be managed separately.
• Exception handling is streamlined: Failed settlements are isolated and can be retried or managed independently, reducing risk and improving auditability.

2. Preview automatic bank reconciliation matching results: This feature includes the following capabilities:

• Matching preview with an option to approve/reject bank reconciliation matching rule results.
• Ability to select matching rules for manual review before posting results during the reconciliation process.
• Pending review screen for users to investigate matching results.

3. Stocked item support with project: This functionality enables both revenue and consumption accounts on the Deferrals page when you create a sales order through projects. The system updates the deferral schedule (COGS) to reflect the inventory adjustment, so it recognizes the correct amounts in subsequent periods. For example, when you create a project-driven sales order for a stocked item, the system records the revenue deferral and creates a consumption deferral for the stocked item.

If you later adjust the stocked item’s cost due to a cost update or physical inventory correction, the system recalculates and updates the deferred COGS schedule, so it recognizes the correct cost over time. This functionality keeps both revenue and cost appropriately aligned and recognized in the correct accounting periods, even if inventory values change after the initial posting.

The post Quarterly Capabilities Update: Microsoft Dynamics 365 Release Wave 2 (Q3/Q4 2025-26) appeared first on OnActuate.

Here’s a quick step-by-step guide: 

Step 1: Navigate to Workflow Management

• From the Main Menu, go to:
  Workflow Administrator → Workflow Management 

Step 2: Review Open Workflows

• The Workflow Dashboard displays all pending workflows. 

• Use filters to narrow down: 

• Status → view only open items. 

• Employee → find requests for a specific individual. 

• Form → filter by request type (e.g., Job Change, Time Off). 

Step 3: Take Action

Within each workflow, you’ll have the following options: 

• Approve → Confirms the request and moves it forward. 

• Reject → Sends it back to the originator (always leave a comment explaining why). 

• Reassign → Routes the request to another approver if you’re not the correct one (leave a comment for clarity). 

Tip: Always leave a comment when rejecting or reassigning – it helps with communication, and audit history.  

That’s it! Once approved, workflows will disappear from your Open list and move into Completed status. Keeping workflows up to date ensures smooth processing of employee requests and payroll actions. 

Want cleaner approvals with fewer clicks? OnActuate can optimize your Dayforce workflows and introduce AI-assisted prioritization when it makes sense.  Contact us to explore what is possible!
