E-Document — Centara fields

BC pages: E-Document (Card), E-Documents (List) · Search: “E-Documents” Standard BC documentation: Microsoft Learn — E-Documents

This page documents the Centara additions to the standard Business Central E-Document service pages. Standard BC fields (Document Type, Direction, Service, Status, etc.) are documented on Microsoft Learn.

The Centara eMessaging extension adds outbound-purchase-order support to the Recreate Document action. The base BC action skips outgoing Purchase Order and Purchase Return Order documents; Centara replaces it with a version that handles those types via the Centara export logic.

E-Document card

Actions

The standard Recreate Document action is restricted to documents that are not outgoing Purchase Orders or Purchase Return Orders. For those two document types, a Centara-supplied Recreate Document action appears in its place.

Action	When visible	What it does
Recreate (standard, modified)	Outbound documents that are not Purchase Order / Purchase Return Order, and all inbound documents	Standard BC behaviour. Centara only narrows when this action shows.
Recreate Document (Centara)	Outbound Purchase Order and Purchase Return Order documents	Asks you to pick an E-Document Service, then regenerates the outbound e-document via the Centara export pipeline so the purchase order / return order is correctly re-serialised and re-sent. Promoted alongside the standard action.

E-Documents list

The list adds a single bulk action in the Processing menu.

Action	What it does
Recreate Document	Asks you to pick an E-Document Service, then loops over every selected E-Document and re-runs the Centara export for it. Use this to bulk-rebuild outbound e-documents — for example, after fixing an issue with an upstream BC document or after switching service.
