Posted on by SM-22041417-0

We are in the process of providing a POC to our client on OCR capabilities in Invoice capture (IC) solution in Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O.

I have been configuring the system and scanning the invoices & noticed the issues as below-

Unable to sync all Vendors from a legal entity- We have synced a legal entity, but system is not syncing vendors beyond 999 counts in invoice capture solution. There are total 3329 vendors in 01 legal entity. Only 999 records are being synced. Unable to sync vendors individually or by selection.
Ability to select fixed asset related information i.e. Fixed asset group, book etc in Inv. capture solution at vendor invoice line level before its transferred to D365. Is it feasible?
How can we add more financial dimensions at invoice line level in IC solution? Currently we only get option to select from 3 financial dimensions i.e., Cost center, Dept & BU.
Ability to enter vendor invoice line data using excel add-in. For cases, where there are more than 100 lines on an invoice, I did not see any option to use excel-add in feature to quickly create lines data or a copy & paste functionality if all the lines contain same details with diff financial dimension combinations?
Mapping rules for items is not working.

Kindly note, in power platform admin center, my user is associated with below roles -

1) Accounts payable admin role

2) Accounts payable clerk role

3) Environment maker

4) System admin

in D365 - System admin & invoice capture operator role

Good morning, afternoon, or evening depending on your location!

Here’s a breakdown of the issues you’re facing with Invoice Capture in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations and potential solutions:

1. Vendor Sync Limitation (999 Records)

The Invoice Capture solution currently has a limitation where only 999 vendors are synced per legal entity.

Workaround:

Try batch processing to sync vendors in smaller groups.

Check if Power Automate flows can be used to sync vendors beyond the limit.

Verify if Azure Data Lake Storage is correctly configured, as it plays a role in data synchronization.

2. Fixed Asset Information at Vendor Invoice Line Level

Currently, Invoice Capture does not natively support selecting Fixed Asset Group, Book, etc. at the invoice line level before transferring to D365.

Possible Solution:

You may need to customize the AI model in Power Platform to recognize fixed asset-related fields.

Consider using manual review settings to allow users to enter fixed asset details before transfer.

3. Adding More Financial Dimensions

By default, Invoice Capture allows selection of Cost Center, Department, and Business Unit.

Expanding Financial Dimensions:

Check if custom AI models can be trained to recognize additional dimensions.

Explore Power Automate flows to map extra financial dimensions before transferring invoices to D365.

4. Excel Add-in for Vendor Invoice Line Data

Currently, Invoice Capture does not support Excel Add-in for bulk entry.

Alternative Approaches:

Use Power Apps or Power Automate to import invoice lines from Excel.

Consider Data Management Framework (DMF) for bulk uploads.

5. Mapping Rules for Items Not Working

If mapping rules are failing, check:

Whether the AI model is correctly trained to recognize item mappings.

If manual review settings are interfering with automatic mapping.

Ensure that invoice formats match the expected structure for mapping.

Next Steps

Review Power Platform admin settings to ensure correct permissions.

Check Microsoft Learn documentation on Invoice Capture for updates.

Hope this helps some!

Hi Holly

Thank you for providing a response. Could you please confirm if there will be any license requirement on top of what is received by the customer/tenant as default along with D365 Finance and SCM license? Do they need a power platform/app license per user accessing the solution?

Also, how we can we create custom AI models for invoice processing & use power automate flows with Invoice capture solution? Are there any tutorials?
