License type for your user is a Full User.
Your permissions are set to 'SUPER' or equal.
Make sure you have permission to install Apps to your Business Central environment.
Set your Role Center to 'Business Manager'. So that you get the correct privileges to run the initialization of Golden EDI.
Golden EDI version 3.1.1.0 or higher is required for Basic Invoice. If you already have a lower version of our app, you need to uninstall it and re-download it from AppSource.
Go to Golden EDI app on the Microsoft AppSource.

In Business Central, search and go to the page 'GEDI Profiles'
on the 3 profile rows 'BASIC-BBAN', 'BASIC-BGIR' and 'BASIC-IBAN', you need to fill in 'GEDI Connection Id' and 'GEDI API Key'. You should have received these in the 'Golden EDI - Next Steps' e-mail when you registered your company on our cloud. The same Connection ID and API key is used for all 3 profiles.
IMPORTANT! - If you use multiple companies in your Business Central, each GEDI Connection ID and corresponding API key must be unique for each company.
Each legal unit must have a individual license to send e-invoices!

After the test case is done, the final step will be to create the the Job Queue Entries to activate the automation.
There is also the possibility to use assisted setup for 'Golden EDI - Customer Setup' to batch update the customers with GEDI profiles.

Register your company on our portal
Before you can start setting up basic invoice as per this guide, you need to register your company on our portal registration page to get your license.
After your have submitted your registration you will receive 2 e-mails from us:
'Golden EDI - Next Steps' - a short summery to guide your next steps and connection settings.
'Document to e-sign' - License agreement thru Scrive.
Basic Invoice requires a separate license with Golden EDI for each Business Central company.
Read thru the license agreement and sign it on Scrive before proceeding this guide to install the App.
Run a test case to check that the connection to our cloud service has been established
You can only run the test case when the connection is initially in test mode, once your connection is set to go-live, this test case will be sent out as a real e-invoice!
IMPORTANT - To be able to run this test you need a Sales Invoice that we will later 'Post'. If your using a real invoice for the test, you'll also need to distribute it to the customer as normal! The test will not be sent out as a e-invoice, it will only be sent to your e-mail.
In Business Central, search and go to the page "Sales Invoices"
Open the sales invoice that you want to run the test with.
When 'Posting' a invoice with the profiles activated, the app now controls that all key fields needed to send a basic invoice is filled in. If any such field is empty a error will tell you what is missing and abort the 'Posting'.
Example of key fields required:
'External Document No' (Table 36| Field 100)
'Sell-to Contact' (Table 36| Field 84)
When you go back to the invoice, and add the missing key fields, you can now try to 'Post' it again.
If you search and go to the page 'Posted Sales Invoice' you can find a column with 'GEDI Status' - this should now have status 'EDI Posting'
Search and go to the page 'GEDI Message Queue'.
Here you will find a row with your invoice number in 'Message ID' column and with the 'Message Code' = 'SI-12-RP', probably it's the last row in the list.
Mark the row, and go to 'Process' tab and click 'Run Message' to manually trigger the invoice.
When it's done, you should have a new row in the list with the invoice number in 'Message ID' and 'Message Code' = 'SI-13-EP' and a 'GEDI Message ID'.
GEDI Message ID is the transaction id from the cloud service, if it succesfully responded
When you registered your organization in our portal, you picked a 'E-mail for EDI issues'. This e-mail address should now have received a e-mail with the EDI file attached.
If you go back to 'Posted Sales Invoices' you can see that the GEDI Status is now 'EDI Posted'
If you received the e-mail this means the test was successful and the connection to the cloud service has been confirmed.
During this test you manually processed the message via our 'GEDI Message Queue', in the next step we will create and schedule 'Job Queue Entries' to handle this for us automatically in the background.
Under the "Invoice Details" section, you will find the field 'GEDI Profile'. Change this to any of the 3 profiles, in order to activate the functionality. (In the User Guide - section we'll explain how to setup customers with this instead of each invoice).
After you have went thru the User Guide - Customers to understand how to correctly configure customer cards for e-invoicing, you can also use our assisted setup for batch updating the relevant customers much faster.
In Business Central, search and go to the page 'Assisted Setup'.
In 'Assisted Setup', click on 'Golden EDI - customer Setup'
Select the Profile you want to add in the selection box above the list.
In the list of customers bellow, select the customer row that you want to add the profile to and click the button 'Set GEDI Profile'.
You should now see profile you selected in the GEDI Profile column.
If you want to use GLN as identification reference, input the customer's GLN into the GLN column.
Repeat for every customer that you want to configure.
Click 'Done' when you are finished with all customers you wanted to change.
Using this method to add the 'GEDI Profile' to the customer Card will not change the Document Exchange Type. This will still be empty as default, which means it's setup as E-invoice type.
'Invoice Report' & 'Credit Report' columns, as well as the 'Document layout' button is not used for Basic Invoice.
