What is LS Central

One platform. Every channel. Every store.

LS Central is a complete commerce platform built on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. It replaces the tangle of POS, ERP, eCommerce, loyalty, replenishment and reporting tools with one application — one database, one source of truth, one set of users.

Whether you operate a single boutique or 500 stores across a region, LS Central scales with you. The same software powers a corner pharmacy in Dubai and a hypermarket chain across the GCC.

  • One head office system — no nightly sync between POS and ERP.
  • Built on Microsoft Business Central — finance and operations included.
  • Cloud SaaS or on-premise — deployment that fits your IT policy.
  • Powering 110,000+ businesses in 157 countries.

LS Central includes

  • Multi-store POS & back office
  • Inventory, replenishment & allocation
  • Promotions, pricing & loyalty
  • Self-checkout & mobile POS
  • Restaurant KDS & table service
  • Hotel PMS & reservations
  • Pharmacy dispensing
  • Forecourt fuel + dry stock
LS Central + Business Central

Retail software backed by an ERP.

Unlike standalone POS systems, LS Central runs natively on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central — so finance, supply chain and operations come built in. One vendor, one upgrade path, one accountability.

Real-time numbers

Every sale, return, refund and stock movement updates the financial GL the instant it happens. No nightly batch. No reconciliation surprises.

Native ERP integration

Multi-currency, multi-entity, consolidated reporting, intercompany trade, and tax compliance — from the same vendor that builds your POS.

Microsoft cloud

Hosted on Azure, secured with Entra ID, backed by Microsoft’s global infrastructure and SLA. Or run it on-premise if you prefer.

Copilot in BC

Microsoft 365 Copilot embedded in Business Central reads, summarises and acts on your retail data — from purchase orders to financial postings.

Microsoft AppSource

Verified add-ons from Novasoft and the ecosystem — ZATCA, UAE FTA, Deliverect, Urban Piper, Shopify, Adobe Commerce — certified and supported.

One upgrade path

LS Central rolls out twice a year on the same release wave as Business Central. No multi-vendor coordination, no version drift.

FAQ

Common questions about LS Retail & LS Central.

What’s the difference between LS Retail and LS Central?
LS Retail is the company — an Icelandic software vendor (since 1988) now part of Aptos. LS Central is their flagship product: a unified commerce platform built on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. We sometimes still see "LS NAV" referenced — that’s the predecessor; LS Central is what’s current.
Is LS Central cloud or on-premise?
Both. LS Central runs as a SaaS service on Microsoft Azure (the recommended option), or on-premise on your own servers if your IT policy requires it. Novasoft deploys both modes; cloud is faster to go live and easier to upgrade.
What does "Diamond Partner" mean?
Diamond is LS Retail’s top partner tier — awarded based on certified consultant headcount, customer base, project complexity and customer satisfaction. Novasoft has held Diamond status for 5 consecutive years (2021-2025).
How long does an LS Central project take?
A single-format store rollout typically goes live in 4-8 weeks. Multi-format chains (e.g. grocery + hypermarket + restaurants) take 12-20 weeks. Phased rollouts to 50+ stores typically run 4-9 months from kick-off to full chain coverage.
Can LS Central integrate with our eCommerce site?
Yes — out-of-the-box integrations to Shopify and Adobe Commerce (Magento), plus the LS Commerce API for custom integrations. Stock, pricing, promotions, loyalty points and orders flow real-time across web and store.
What about ZATCA Phase 2 in Saudi Arabia?
Novasoft’s KSA e-Invoicing add-on for Business Central is fully ZATCA Phase 2 certified, tested in the FATOORA sandbox. LS Central POS transactions flow through the BC e-invoicing engine for stamped invoices in real time.
