Key features that add value to your workday
Personalize your emails
Customize your outgoing emails with time-limited email signatures for seasonal greetings or special promotions. You can also extract data from posted documents directly into your emails.
Send emails in the background
Efficiently send scheduled emails without interrupting your workflow. Your emails will be sent in the background, ensuring you don’t experience system interruptions while performing other tasks.
Flexible PDF customization
Easily create customized PDFs by adding background images to align with your brand. Protect them from document tampering with password protection or authenticate them with signatures and watermarks.
Automate your email distribution
Automate your document output by setting up email jobs to auto-detect and queue new documents for distribution. With pre-configured email templates, Report Selection, and PDF features, you can minimize user intervention for a streamlined communication process.
Create targeted email templates
Easily set up email template variations based on recipient attributes. You can automatically apply the variant using dimensions, such as customer type or language.
Extended customization options
Easily integrate key functionalities, such as email, template design, and distribution automation anywhere in your Business Central. With the AL Extension Builder, you can extend any standard or custom-made module with time-saving Document Output features.
