Extended SPC DC connects document attachments in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with SharePoint and supports attachments created by Continia Document Capture.
The app is intended for users and administrators who want invoice documents to be stored in SharePoint automatically when sales or purchase documents are posted.
Extended SPC DC does not add a separate setup page. Its transfer process uses the SharePoint Connector and Continia Document Capture setup that is already available in Business Central.
Prerequisites
Configure the SharePoint Connector, including authentication, SharePoint folders, table mappings, and mapped metadata fields.
Make sure the current user can read and manage Document Attachment records and can use the SharePoint Connector.
If Continia Document Capture is used to create invoice PDFs, complete the Continia Document Capture setup and registration process first.
How the Setup Is Used
SharePoint mappings
The mapping determines the SharePoint folder for the Business Central record and the metadata columns that are filled after the file is uploaded.
Document attachments
Attachments must be linked to a supported record. The transfer process uses the attachment file name and extension and preserves the file type in SharePoint.
Docs / Solution / Extended SPC DC / Tasks Working with the App
Extended SPC DC transfers Business Central document attachments to SharePoint and can create PDF attachments from registered Continia Document Capture documents.
Before You Start
Configure the SharePoint Connector and create mappings for the records whose attachments should be stored in SharePoint.
Ensure that attachments are linked to the relevant invoice or other supported record.
For automatic PDF creation, ensure that Continia Document Capture can register the document and provide its PDF file.
Automatic Transfer After Posting
Post a sales or purchase document.
When the posted invoice contains document attachments, the app starts the attachment transfer automatically.
The app determines the SharePoint folder from the table mapping, uploads the file, and fills the configured metadata columns from the Business Central record.
After a successful upload, the local attachment is deleted. If the upload fails, the attachment is retained and the process reports an error.
Attachments Created by Document Capture
When Continia Document Capture registers an invoice or credit memo, the app creates a PDF document attachment for the created document when a PDF is available. The attachment can then be transferred to SharePoint by the posting workflow or by the manual report.
Docs / Solution / Extended SPC DC / Tasks Transfer Attachments to SharePoint
This processing report transfers document attachments from Business Central to SharePoint. It is useful for attachments that were not transferred automatically after posting or that must be processed again after a temporary SharePoint connection problem.
What the Report Does
Reads the document attachments that match the selected filters.
Finds the related Business Central record and the SharePoint folder from the configured table mapping.
Uploads the attachment with a sanitized file name and its original file extension.
Writes the configured mapping metadata to the SharePoint file.
Deletes the Business Central attachment only when the upload succeeds.
Available Filters
Filter
Purpose
Table ID
Limits processing to attachments for a specific table.
No.
Limits processing to a specific document or record number.
Attached Date
Limits processing to attachments created in a selected date range.
Document Type
Limits processing to a selected document type.
User
Limits processing to attachments created by a selected user.
Supported Records
Records with a one-field primary key can be processed. For two-field primary keys, the report supports sales and purchase header records. An unsupported key structure stops the report to prevent attachments from being associated with the wrong record.
When an Upload Fails
The attachment remains in Business Central when SharePoint rejects the upload or the transfer cannot be completed. Review the SharePoint Connector authentication, folder mapping, and permissions before running the report again.
