Hi Juergen,

Can you create a new thread in the D365Finance form, provide some information about your system version, share some screenprints and replication steps?

Many thanks,

Ludwig

Hello Ludwig,

If we use the send button for collection letters and not send an e-mail with attachment, what format will we use to send the electronic report via electronic reporting destinations?
If we use e-Mail and then attach a PDF file we will have the same result as when we use the print management, because with the new functionaliy of configurable business documents we could use electronic reports instead of SSRS reports for collection letter.

I thought that the send button maybe enables electronic communication (EDI) in XML Format with customers???

Other question we have is concerning the E-Mail templates. In the AR setup you can choose to use organisation e-mail templates for three porposes, but when we send out the collection letters the will not be used. How can we utilize e-mail templates for collection letters?

Thank you very much!
Best Regards

Hi,

If you want to make use of the send functionality then you need to setup an electronic report first in the organization admin module.

This report needs then be linked in the AR parameter form in the electronic document section.

Once this is done, an electronic document is created.

Yet, the document is created in the OrgAdmin module under the electronic jobs by default.

If you want to have the document automatically send to a customer then you need specify an email in the electronic reporting destination form. Requires quite some additional setup. I just prepared a video that I will post on my blog about something related that shows you the setup. Need to 'pimp' the video and make it nice before I can publish it. If you are interested you have to wait a couple of weeks though or try doing it yourself.

Best regards,

Ludwig

Hello Vaibhav S,

How did you configure your collection letters and how do you want to send them exactly?

(a) As document (PDF, Word, Excel) as an email attachment

or

(b) as an electronic document (XML file)?

I assume that you want to send a 'normal' email as a document (a). This can be achieved by making use of the print management parameters. Please open AR - Form setup - Print management. Then select the collection letter note document and ensure that the destination is set to 'Email'. When doing this, ensure that you select a customer purpose - for example business - that has an email address setup in the customer master. Make sure that you enter a subject and a file format before you close the form.

Once this is done go to 'credit and collections - collection letter - collection letter note report.

Enable the 'use print management parameter' and hit OK.

The emails with the attached collection letter should now be send out to your customers business email address.

Please test this before in a demo/test environment for some test emails/customers before you send out actual collection letters ;-)

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Ludwig
