This page documents only the Centara additions to the standard Business Central Sales & Receivables Setup. Standard BC fields are documented on Microsoft Learn.
For a narrative tour see Sales & Receivables Setup.
Centara eInvoicing Settings
The Centara extension adds these fields to the standard eInvoicing Settings group.
| Field | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Process PEPPOL | Master switch that enables the eInvoice workflow on outbound sales documents. Off = no PEPPOL is generated. |
| Complex | Shows extra columns on Inbound Document Lines so users with complex routing rules can see all the underlying data. |
| Update Inbound Document | Inbound Document Lines are refreshed whenever Posting Setup changes so the recomputed accounts/dimensions show up immediately. |
| EndpointID for PEPPOL | Which BC field provides the supplier EndpointID on outbound PEPPOL documents (Registration No., VAT Reg., GLN, etc.). Set automatically by the wizard. |
| SendBaseQtyofMeasure | When on, outbound sales documents send quantity in the item’s base UoM, not the document UoM. Useful for partners that only accept base UoM. |
| Use Reg.No.for Customer | Sets AccountingSupplierParty based on Customer No. — requires manual No. Series management. Niche; only enable if instructed by Centara. |
| Use eInvoiceDescription | Uses the dedicated eInvoice Description field on invoices instead of the standard description. |
| Split Lines By Lot | Splits each invoice line by Lot number in the outbound XML — required by partners that need lot-traceable invoices. |
Centara Sales Documents
Outbound-formatting controls for sales invoices and credit memos.
| Field | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Auto-Populate Your Ref | Auto-fills the Your Reference field on sales documents with the sales document No. — useful when downstream systems key on this value. |
| Update Dimensions | Always rewrites sales document line dimensions with the dimensions from the sales document header, even if the lines had their own. |
| Note Field | Which BC field’s value is written into the PEPPOL Note element. |
| Replace Resource No. | Replaces Resource No. on outbound documents with the configured value — used when Resource references should not leak to trading partners. |
| Wise Peppol Validation | Use Centara’s Advanced Peppol Validation instead of Microsoft’s standard validation before sending. Required if you use per-currency bank account information rather than the bank info on Company Information. |
| Use Info from Customer Card | Uses Bill-To information from the Customer card rather than the sales document’s bill-to fields on the outbound XML. |
| Accounting Cost Field | Which BC field’s value is written into the PEPPOL AccountingCost element. Common values: Your Reference, Dimension 1, Dimension 2. |
| Add Order No. to | Which PEPPOL field carries the BC sales order number — Order Reference, Buyer Reference, etc. |
| Don’t Send Zero Amount | Skips sending documents where the total amount is zero (e.g. fully-credited invoices). |
| Use UoM from ItemRef | Uses the item reference’s UoM when creating inbound document lines (mirror of the purchases setting; affects sales orders created from inbound PEPPOL orders). |
| qtyDecimalPlaces | Decimal places used for quantity on outbound eInvoices. Default is 2. |
Centara Sales Orders
Controls how inbound PEPPOL Orders become BC sales orders and the outbound order-update flow.
| Field | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Variance Amount | If the difference between a sales order total and the matching inbound e-document is greater than this amount, the sales order will not be automatically posted. |
| Use Address From PO | The sell-to address on auto-created sales orders comes from the inbound Purchase Order instead of the Customer Card. |
| Convert to Base Unit | Converts inbound document line UoM to the item’s base UoM on the created sales order. |
| Use UoM Mapping | Uses the Unit of Measure Mapping table to translate inbound UoMs into the BC equivalents — needed when a partner uses non-standard UoM codes. |
| AutoProcessOrderToSO | Inbound PEPPOL Orders are automatically converted to BC Sales Orders by the Process job queue. Off = orders sit in the Inbound list for manual handling. |
| Auto Post Order | The created sales order is also posted automatically. Combine with AutoProcessOrderToSO for hands-off order processing. |
| Always Auto Post | By default auto-post only fires when the eInvoice total and the sales order total match exactly. Turn this on to auto-post even with a total mismatch (uses Variance Amount as the limit). |
| Send Order Updates | When on, BC notifies CentaraIQ when a sales order is created and when it’s released — partners receive an Order Response. |
| Send Fulfillment | When and whether to send a Fulfillment update to CentaraIQ — on release, on post, or both. Only editable when Send Order Updates is on. |
| Show PDF Factbox | Show the PDF preview factbox on Sales Order. |
| Show Sales Order Tiles Only | The Centara Document Cue on the Role Center shows only Sales Order tiles, hiding the purchase tiles. Useful for sales-only users. |
| Show Ship-to Column | Adds the Ship-to Name column to the Inbound e-Documents page so users can route documents based on delivery address. |
Centara Compare
Visibility toggles for the comparison view on sales documents linked to an inbound PEPPOL order.
| Field | What it controls |
|---|---|
| Show Unit Price | Displays the eInvoice Order unit price next to the BC sales document unit price for line-by-line review. |
| Show Line Amount | Displays the eInvoice Order line amount next to the BC sales document line amount. |
Actions
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Quick PEPPOL | Updates every Document Sending Profile to send PEPPOL documents and turns on Process PEPPOL in one click — the fastest way to enable outbound PEPPOL across all customers. |
