Manages the information that is displayed in the Incoming Documents window.
Some business transactions are not recorded in Microsoft Dynamics NAV from the outset. Instead, an external business document comes into your company as an email attachment or a paper copy that you scan to file. This is typical of purchases, where such incoming document files represent payment receipts for expenses or small purchases. Other examples of incoming document files are electronic invoices, credit memos, or quotes from business partners with whom you have agreed to exchange documents electronically.
In the Incoming Documents window, you can use different functions to review and transfer data from incoming document files to the relevant purchase documents, sales documents, or general journal lines in Microsoft Dynamics NAV. The external files can be attached to their related document in Microsoft Dynamics NAV at any process stage, including to posted documents and to the resulting vendor, customer, and general ledger entries. For more information, see Incoming Documents.
You can incorporate an approval process by setting up users that must approve an incoming document before another user can create a related document in Microsoft Dynamics NAV. For more information, see Incoming Document Approvers.
