E2D - Draft Purchase Invoice Inbox

E2D Purchase Invoice Inbox – User Guide

Overview

Once E2D (Electronic-to-Digital) is enabled in Aqilla, any purchase invoices sent to your dedicated inbox email address will be automatically captured and prepared for you.

Instead of manually entering invoice details, the system reads the document and extracts key information such as the supplier, invoice lines, VAT, and totals.

This means:

  • Less manual data entry

  • Fewer errors

  • One central place to manage all incoming invoices


The Inbox

The Draft Purchase Invoice Inbox is where all your incoming invoices are collected and organised.

It gives you a clear, at-a-glance view of:

  • Emails that have arrived

  • Invoices ready to be processed

  • Invoices that need your attention (for example, missing supplier details)

From here, you can:

  • Process invoices into Documents > Purchase Invoices

  • View imported, deleted, or already processed invoices

  • Filter and quickly find invoices that are ready or need review

For example:
If you select Missing Supplier, you’ll see a list of invoices where the system couldn’t confidently match a supplier.

These will need a quick manual check before processing.

You can also switch between different views such as imported, deleted, and processed invoices, helping you keep everything organised and easy to track.

You can quickly locate ready or problematic invoices using these options.


Inbox Settings:

The columns in the inbox are automatically populated based on what the system detects from each invoice. However, you can customise this view to suit your needs.

If you’d like to adjust what information is shown:

  • Look for the gear icon on the right-hand side of the inbox

  • Click it to open Table Settings

On the right hand side of the inbox, the gear box opens up the Table settings, which allows you to change the information displayed in the columns on the inbox.

From here, you can:

  • Add or remove columns

  • Display additional attributes

  • Tailor the view to match your workflow

Simply select the fields you’d like to see, then click the save checkmark to apply your changes.

You can also:

  • Reset to default settings RESET

  • Cancel without saving ❌

Keep in mind that adding more columns may make the table wider and require more screen space.
