Auto Create Purchase Invoice from PDF

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 268
Hello Expert,
 
I receive a PDF document from the client that lists multiple Purchase Order numbers (as item references). All of these purchase orders have already been created in Business Central and their corresponding Purchase Receipts have been posted. To invoice the vendor, I now need to create a Purchase Invoice, use 'Get Receipt Lines,' and manually enter each Purchase Order No. shown in the PDF. This is very time-consuming — in some cases the PDF contains 200+ order references.
I'd like to automate this: create the Purchase Invoice and automatically pull in all the posted Purchase Receipt lines corresponding to the Purchase Order numbers listed in the PDF, rather than selecting them one by one. I have attached sample screenshot.
 
I tried using the Incoming Document, but it didn't work as expected.

Could you suggest how to achieve this in Business Central?
