The Target system configuration dialog: Dynamics AX (Embedded) settings

Use these settings to configure the Dynamics AX 2012 integration using the embedded connector.

To access this dialog: Select a Services node in the administration tree-view on the partner level or customer level, select Target system, select AX Connector (Embedded) and click Configuration.

Use this target system to configure the Dynamics AX 2012 integration without using AP Essentials Connect.

The settings that appear here vary, depending on the target system, version and current account level. Use these settings to configure Dynamics AX 2012 using the embedded connector:

Output image format Determines the format of the output invoices.
  • TIF - A black and white TIF image.
  • PDF - If the original PDF is color, the output PDF is also color. Original text layers are preserved. If the original PDF does not contain text layers, Kofax AP Essentials adds text layers from the interpreted data.
  • PDF (black and white) - A black and white PDF. Original text layers are discarded and recreated using Kofax AP Essentials's own interpretation results, however, text layers are not created if the document exceeds 100 pages.

    Choose this setting for the smallest file size.

    When Kofax AP Essentials receives XML invoices, it creates invoice images that may contain color; however, the file size is still small.

  • No image - Invoice images are not sent to the target system. Only invoice data is sent.

If you change the output format, the change only applies to invoices that you upload after the change was made. Invoices that are already in the system at the time of the change are not affected.

Validate Tests the current settings for correctness.
