Document Creation and Delivery Improvements

Enhanced Flexibility: AventX Now Sends Documents Despite Attachment Issues

In the past, when generating a document for delivery, if an attachment from Oracle EBS or other sources were unavailable, AventX would fail the delivery process. The application would alert users and admins of an error so it could be corrected and reattempted. Now, AventX can continue sending the document to its intended recipient while providing a configurable notification about the missing attachment. This enhanced flexibility gives organizations more control over how they want to communicate with their recipients and can help prevent delays in critical business processes.

Group Individual Documents in a Batch Process into a Single File when using EmailToMe and Printing

AventX for Oracle Cloud can now consolidate individual outputs from a submitted batch with the EmailToMe and printing features. This is supported at the global and business unit levels. By merging multiple documents into a single file, you can significantly reduce inbox clutter and improve email management. Batch printing allows you to print multiple documents simultaneously, saving time and resources. Consolidating related documents into a single file also improves organization and retrieval.
