Automate invoice copy as a PDF attachment in e‑invoices in D365 F&O

Writing on the Dynfotech blog, Alireza Eshaghzadeh stated that D365 F&O has a built-in feature called an e-invoice attachment that automatically creates a PDF version of an invoice and includes it in the structured e-invoice file, such as Peppol BIS, XRechnung, or FatturaPA formats.

When this feature is turned on for specific customers, the system generates the PDF when the invoice is posted. He noted that it uses a predefined layout (either SSRS or configurable business document), saves the PDF as an attachment on the invoice record, and adds it to the e-invoice XML file created by electronic reporting.

Eshaghzadeh pointed out that this helps reduce the need for custom integrations with external platforms (access points) and simplifies how invoices are sent to different customer types, i.e., governments, businesses, and consumers.

In the blog post, Eshaghzadeh explained why you should use the e-invoice attachment feature and how it works.
