Document and TemplatesDuring vendor identification and auto-matching, captured document values may be used as table filters. The below error could occur if a captured value, used as a table filter, started with a percentage sign (%).
  • The filter "<value starting with %>" is not valid for the <tablefield> field on the table. The variable "<value starting with %>" was not understood.
To prevent this problem, any leading percentage signs (%) are now removed from values used as filters. Several characters that hold a special meaning in filtering contexts, e.g., * | &, are already disregarded.
43210

  • WARNING: Purchase order <Order No.> already exist. <Purchase order action>
47562
Document and TemplatesWhen filling in the Translate To No. value in the line section on the Document Card, the OK field value was not set to true. This applied to the web client only.47780

50270
Document ApprovalWhen using Approval Flow codes with a selection method other than All, the picked approvers would be wrong if the purchase order was partially invoiced. This was due to the remaining amount to be invoiced being used as the approval amount when sending the document for approval.

General ApplicationWith the release of Business Central 2023 R1, Microsoft introduced standard functionality to synchronize master data between companies. Certain master data tables in Document Capture are not suited for synchronization between companies since they hold company-specific relations to standard data entities (e.g., Vendors, Customers, Dimension Values, etc.) or posted data.

Setting up master data synchronization of the following tables will invoke an error message:
  • Table 6085575 "CDC Document Category"
  • Table 6085579 "CDC Template"
  • Table 6085580 "CDC Template Field"
  • Table 6085752 "CDC Posted Dtld. Appvl. Entry"
  • Table 6085753 "CDC Posted Dtld App Entry Dim"
  • Table 6085730 "CDC Purch. Allocation Header"
  • Table 6085731 "CDC Purch. Allocation Line"

The dialogue is only displayed if the templates identified have more than one search text. In the case where multiple templates, only having one search text, are found, existing functionality prioritizes which one to use based on where the search text is found in the document. The search text found first (at the topmost position of the document) is used.

  • <Empty>

  • By Amount
  • By Weight
  • By Volume

The initial option <Empty> (the default value) does not initiate the new functionality. The other four options invoke the same automatic assignment methods available in the Suggest Item Charge Assignment action in the standard Business Central application.

The automatic assignment is available when

  1. Registering a document matched to receipt lines or return shipment lines (not matched to order lines or return order lines)
  2. Registering an invoice document without using match.
For further information, please see the following article on Continia Docs:

Document and Templates

Two new features have been added to document assignment:

  • A new field, Assign to User ID, has been added to the Template Card. Documents will be automatically assigned to the user configured in Assign to User ID when the template is applied to the document.

    Assignees found using the Assign on Error in configurable messages will override Assign to User ID from the template.

  • A new option field, Comment on manual assignment, has been added to the Document Capture Setup page. When manually adding a user to the field, Assigned to User ID, in the Document Journalthe user will be presented with a page to write an assignment comment depending on the option chosen. The available options are:
    • No (default value): The comment sheet will not be displayed.
    • Optional: The comment sheet will be displayed but can be closed without adding a comment.
    • Mandatory: The comment sheet will be displayed. The system will show an error if no comment is added.
