Still Creating Invoices Manually? Discover How Etendo 25.3 Automates Document Type Selection per Customer
Etendo 25.3: The Update That Eliminates Repetitive Tasks
At Etendo, we continue to drive operational efficiency with tools designed to simplify daily business processes.
With the arrival of Etendo 25.3, we’re introducing one of the most anticipated enhancements: the Document Type Tab, now available within the Business Partner (Customer/Vendor) window.
This new feature automates the document type selection (invoice, order, or shipment) according to the customer or vendor, resulting in faster, error-free transactions.
If you still choose your document type manually, Etendo 25.3 completely changes that experience.
What Is the New Document Type Tab?
The Document Type Tab introduces a new level of advanced personalization for business partners.
It lets you define, for each customer or vendor, which document type should be used for each transaction.
From now on, every time an invoice, order, or receipt is created, the system will automatically select the correct configuration.
Example:
If a customer always requires an E-Invoice, Etendo will automatically apply that document type without any user intervention.
Key Benefits of This Automation
1. Total Consistency
Each country or company may handle different document sequences and types.
With this new feature, Etendo ensures that every transaction uses the correct document type, maintaining accounting consistency and traceability.
2. Time Savings and Fewer Errors
The system automatically applies the right configuration — no manual selection needed.
This means fewer clicks, fewer human errors, and faster document creation.
3. Flexible Personalization
You can define different document types for each customer or vendor, both for sales and purchases.
Etendo adapts to your business reality, offering granular control and full flexibility.
How to Configure It
Configuration is simple and accessible from the Business Partner window.
When creating a new record in the Document Type Tab, you define four key parameters:
- Organization: Determines the rule’s scope. Etendo can look through the organizational hierarchy to find valid configurations.
- Document Category: Order, Invoice, or Shipment/Receipt.
- Sales Transaction: Indicates whether it applies to sales (checked) or purchases (unchecked).
- Document Type: Displays only valid options according to the selected category.
Once configured, Etendo will automatically apply this rule to every new transaction linked to that business partner.
For more details, you can visit the official Etendo documentation.
Efficiency Applied to Document Creation
When a user generates an order or invoice, Etendo executes a simple but powerful process:
- It checks the Document Type Tab configuration for that business partner.
- If a matching rule exists, it applies it automatically.
- If not, it looks for valid configurations in the organizational hierarchy.
- If none exist, it uses the organization’s standard document type.
Result: Consistent, automatically generated documents in just seconds — no extra steps required.
Conclusion: Productivity and Control in One Click
The Document Type Tab in Etendo 25.3 represents a practical leap forward in document automation.
It helps reduce time, minimize errors, and maintain consistency across every transaction in the system.
If your company aims to optimize workflows and free up time for strategic work, Etendo 25.3 is the update you’ve been waiting for.
