What is the purpose of the Analysis phase in an on-premises implementation of Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations?

The Analysis phase focuses on understanding the customer’s business, defining requirements, and preparing a solid foundation before design and development begin. In an on-premises implementation, this phase ensures that:

• Business processes are clearly documented

• Functional gaps are identified

• Infrastructure requirements are estimated

• Project scope is validated and approved

This phase reduces risks, avoids rework, and ensures alignment between business expectations and the system capabilities.
