Overview

The Update Record on ERP action keeps your Business Central system in sync. Whenever a workflow runs, selected fields in Business Central can be updated automatically saving time and ensuring your accounting data always reflects your collection activities.


What You’ll Need

Before you can use this action, make sure:

  • Active Business Central integration - You have an active Business Central integration connected in Kolleno

  • Filed Value - You know the exact field names in Business Central that you want to update (e.g., creditLimit, displayName)

  • Workflow Level - Your workflow is set to the correct level (Customer or Invoice)


How It Works

  1. Choose Business Central as your ERP system when setting up the action.

  2. Enter the field name you want to update (must match the Business Central field exactly).

  3. Set the field value you want applied (can include workflow variables).

  4. Kolleno automatically applies the update to the correct record based on your workflow level:

    • Customer workflows → update customer records

    • Invoice workflows → update invoice records


What You Can Update

Customer Records (Customer-level workflows)

  • Customer details: name, contact information, address

  • Financial settings: credit limits, payment terms

  • Contact preferences and communication notes

  • Any custom fields you’ve created for customers

Invoice Records (Invoice-level workflows)

  • Invoice status and payment information

  • Collection notes and internal comments

  • Follow-up dates and reminders

  • Collection stage indicators

  • Any custom fields you’ve added to invoices
