Version overview

Keep your solution up to date

Improving finance processes in Dynamics NAV and Business Central is an ongoing focus in all Continia solutions. We develop features, technical improvements, and innovations to secure the best user experience in your Document Capture solution. 

Highlights in Document Capture 2023 R1 (11.00)

  • Support for purchase and return orders in approval workflows: Approve your purchase and return orders using Document Capture's outstanding approval workflow functionality. You can approve them quickly with all existing Continia workflow features, including the Web Approval Portal. 
  • New category for creating and updating purchase orders: Reduce manual typing and eliminate errors by automatically creating and updating your purchase orders based on order confirmations sent by your vendor. 
  • Support for prepayments: Easily manage advanced payments required by vendors for goods and services. Document Capture automatically posts documents as prepayment invoices when identified or marked as prepayments, linking them to an associated purchase order.  
  • Create general journal lines without a vendor balancing account: Increase flexibility with small purchases by selecting a bank or G/L balancing account instead of the default vendor account. 
  • Support for Business Central Universal Code initiative: Keep compliant with Microsoft's Universal Code initiative so you can continue to use all the powerful Document Capture on-premises features as usual.

  • Registration of documents directly to General Journal Lines - useful in situations where no document approval or detailed posting information is necessary, for example, one-time vendors that are unnecessary to register in full.  
  • Amount limits for approval flow codes and four-eye approval - introduced for a faster approval flow by ensuring that only the necessary number of people are involved in the approval processes and applying amount limits to trigger four-eye approval. 
  • Inclusion of purchase reason codes when exporting the Document Capture setup - easier and faster implementation upon setting up multiple companies. 
  • Attaching files from the Approval Entries page - speeds up the approval process by making it significantly easier to attach additional files without opening individual records.

This version introduced new document categories, new options for allocating documents, and increased security against fraud. Some of the significant news in this version includes:
