Staff had to open the mail, download the attachment, read the document, check the data and create purchase orders in Business Central by hand. Each manifest took about 20 minutes, up to 10 times a day. The video shows a Manifest Agent that replaces this work. It watches a shared mailbox, reads the manifest PDF, extracts the data, validates it, and creates purchase orders with the right vendor, items, quantities and locations. It runs via a job queue every 5 minutes and logs each step so actions can be traced. The video does not state a release status for these features. ## Key points - Aptean, a partner, built the Manifest Agent for Business Central; the video presents it as agentic automation. - Before the agent: manual handling of each manifest took about 20 minutes, up to 10 times a day. - The agent monitors a shared mailbox and detects incoming manifest PDFs sent by vendors. - It extracts data from the manifest and validates it before creating purchase orders. - Purchase orders are created in Business Central with vendor, items, quantities and locations from the manifest. - Execution runs through a job queue every 5 minutes. - Each step is logged and every action is traceable. ## Chapters - [0:00](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=0s) The shipping manifest problem - [0:26](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=26s) Manual process at Interfrucht: 20 minutes per manifest - [0:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=53s) Manifest Agent capabilities and workflow - [1:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=77s) Technical execution and audit trail - [1:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=103s) Results and Agentyc automation ## Features Every feature below: status not stated. | Feature | At | |---|---| | Manifest Agent for Business Central | [1:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=63s) | | Automated purchase order creation from manifests | [1:17](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=77s) | | Mailbox monitoring and document processing | [1:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=63s) | | Job queue execution with audit logging | [1:32](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=92s) | ## Quotes - [0:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=37s) "Someone had to open the email, download the attachment, read the document, verify the information, and manually create purchase orders in Business Central." - [0:53](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=53s) "Each manifest took 20 minutes to process, and this happened up to 10 times a day." - [1:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjF_sESaIPo&t=63s) "The agent continuously monitors a shared mailbox.
