The short version

DynamoDocs automates Business Central document entry for field service and equipment companies. For field service and equipment companies, parts invoices, equipment POs, and service quotes shuttle between the field and the office and get re-keyed before billing or dispatch. DynamoDocs captures each document, AI reads and classifies it, codes it to work order and equipment or unit, validates it, and posts approved records into Business Central through the Business Central REST/OData API, so billing and dispatch stop waiting on re-keyed parts and equipment paperwork. Dynamics 365 Business Central (formerly NAV / Navision) is the go-to ERP for growing SMBs on the Microsoft stack.

Business Central for field service and equipment companies, from inbox to posted record

Imagine an equipment service company running Business Central that receives a parts invoice tied to a specific work order, the parts have to post against the right unit for warranty. DynamoDocs picks it up from the monitored inbox (or a drag-and-drop upload), and AI reads every field and line, no template required. It is coded to work order and equipment or unit from your rules and vendor or customer history, then validated against totals, required fields, and your own checks. Anything that fails is flagged field-by-field for a quick review; everything clean posts straight into Business Central as a purchase invoice through the Business Central REST/OData API. Connects through the Business Central REST/OData v4 API, cloud or on-prem. Your field service & equipment team reviews the occasional exception instead of retyping the whole document, so billing and dispatch stop waiting on re-keyed parts and equipment paperwork.
