Welcome to Document Inbound B2Brouter
Status: 03.07.2026
Document Inbound supports the import of documents via B2Brouter, an external provider for document exchange. B2Brouter also supports standards such as Peppol. This feature allows you to receive and process incoming B2Brouter documents without operating your own inbound infrastructure.
Incoming documents are retrieved through a secure API integration with B2Brouter and then:
- Stored securely in the inbound list
- Routed to the appropriate inbound list
- Processed and assigned to Business Central records
Feature Activation
The B2Brouter import requires a separate feature activation. If the feature is not activated, the B2Brouter-related options will not be functional.
