“You have to understand accounting and you have to understand the nuances of accounting. It’s the language of business and it’s an imperfect language, but unless you are willing to put in the effort to learn accounting— how to read and interpret financial statements— you really shouldn’t select stocks yourself.” -WARREN BUFFETT
This book is divided into 3 sections. Below is a promise from the authors what you can expect from each section-
Section I: ABC of Accounting
This part is about the fundamentals of finance and accounting. I started studying finance and accounting in school in grade 11 (in 1998) and it took me a few years to understand it in the right context.
I have jotted down the basics of accounting here in a dead-simple way:Why your business is different from ‘you’?Why are most people confused with debit and credit?How golden rules of accounting are taught in schools and universities?How does the accounting process work behind the scenes?Best practices for designing the chart of accountsIFRS and International Accounting StandardsI highly recommend reading this part in detail if you have not read finance & accounting during your school/university time. This part is the building block of this book.
Section II: Microsoft D365 ERP
I recommend this for all D365 consultants, D365 finance users, and new graduates who want to start their D365 careers. It is my promise you will not regret spending time on these 5 chapters.
This part deals with specific accounting with D365 ERP (Finance & Operations). You can also use it as a ‘cheat sheet’ while configuring the accounting of D365 and there is nothing wrong with that. If you already know a little bit of finance, this section will make you more confident with the core accounting of D365 ERP.There is a beautiful link between D365 accounting and Golden Rules of accounting (which you read in Section I)How does Microsoft D365 handle accounting for procurement, sales, assets, general ledger, forex, inter-company?How the posting works in D365 (which is different from the manual accounting system and differs in each ERP)There are some tips and tricks with every chapter which make this book unique.IFRS and IAS references at the relevant places.An example from Chapter 6 below-
IAS 21 — The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates
International Accounting Standard (IAS-21) require general ledger account balances in foreign currencies to be revalued using different exchange rate types (current, historical, average, etc.). For example, one accounting convention requires following conversion rates-Assets and liabilitiesà Current exchange rate,Fixed assetsàHistorical exchange rate, andProfit and loss accountsà Monthly average. Section III: Financial Statements and Ratio Analysis
It is a bonus section. As you know I am a fan of Warren Buffett and cannot miss financial statements and ratios when we talk about finance and accounting. This part deals with Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, etc., and recommends which section and ratio are most important while you want to do a quick health check of a company.
I recommend this for everyone even if you don’t want to know about debit-credit or D365 accounting. It will make you a little more intelligent in reading the financials of an organization.
Note- This book is the first in the series of two books. There will be some advanced topics in the next book e.g., revenue recognition, project accounting, lease accounting, landed costing and manufacturing, etc.

Enjoying the book
Enjoying the book but the website for answers is down. Does anyone have a link?
Good quality
Very good and comprehensive
Wastage of money
Very disgusting book. Better resources are available online. I strongly recommend you not to buy this book.
Well drafted book.. basic topics covered pretty well.. good handy book for someone who’s accounting concepts are not that clear, covers topic right from understanding what is debit and credit.It can be a good book to crack any interview too for a fresher to few year of experience.Only negative point that I felt is the print of the book, its black and white, the screenshots attached looks dull for some topics.Waiting for the 2nd part to come soon, which will cover the advance topics 👍
Excellent book and worthy purchase which gives good insight on Financial logics.
After reading this book I ordered 5 copies more to share between my current customers in Germany. From the first pages you see that the authors love their field and they mastered a brief introduction to Dynamics 365 Finance with some basic accounting knowledge at the beginning included. I recommend it.
Knowing accounting is essential to being a successful D365 functional consultant. Having read the book end to end I can say that this book does a great job of presenting basic accounting for new D365 ERP consultants. For experienced consultants who are not from an accounting background, I would recommend “Chapter 5 – IFRS and International Accounting Standards”. This chapter not only explains the IFRS/IAS standards but also explains how these standards have been implemented in D365 Finance and Operations.
I hope you find the book review below helpful for your endeavor into accounting world.My greatest decision to refer this book is to determine the market I wish to target and gather the appropriate tool that will lead to successful achievement. I’d recommend “Financial Accounting with MSD365 ERP” the language is simple and it has real life examples to make it easy to grasp. I’ve never taken course in accounting, but I’ve had to deal with accounting during my implementation projects in a techno-functional role. I’d encourage you to share what you find interesting in the book.Happy learning!
