Dynamics 365 Electronic Reporting can generate more than customer invoices. It can also create structured payment files for electronic exchange with banks or payment services, using the format required by the receiving organisation.
The Challenge: Payment Files Need Controlled Electronic Delivery
Banks, countries and payment services may require different file structures and transfer routes. Even when Electronic Reporting produces the correct file, finance teams still need a repeatable way to distribute it and monitor the wider process.
The Lasernet Approach: ER Generation with Connector or Lasernet Distribution
Microsoft Electronic Reporting generates the structured payment file. Organisations can then choose to distribute it through the Lasernet Finance & Operations Connector or through Lasernet, depending on their technical environment. Where the bank exchange is managed as EDI, the ER-generated payment file can enter that process; the payment file itself remains the structured format required by the receiving bank or service.
Why It Matters
The benefits are clear:
- Flexibility: Electronic Reporting can generate the required payment-file structure for the receiving bank or service
- Distribution: the organisation can route the file through the Connector or Lasernet
- Reuse: the same reporting and delivery architecture can support payment files and other business-critical electronic outputs
Extend Electronic Reporting Beyond Invoices
This clear division lets Electronic Reporting create the bank format while the Connector or Lasernet manages the selected delivery route.
