Business value

You can easily discard incorrect or duplicate e-documents. You don't need to keep unprocessed e-documents, so you save space in data storage.

Feature details

Business Central doesn't create new incoming e-documents if you import a batch that contains duplicates. Duplicates are documents with the same vendor, external document number, and date.

If a duplicate or incorrect e-document exists in Business Central, administrators can delete it by running the Delete Related Document action. However, you can't delete e-documents that are already processed and connected with purchase documents.

Action for delete incorrect documents

Cannot delete already processed e-document
