Business Central is the invoice source
Carden imports posted sales invoices and items from one Business Central company, read-only. Each invoice line carries its own tax and discount amounts and its unit of measure, so a linked Stripe, Square, or Braintree integration can carry line-level tax instead of a transaction total.
App-only access, no stored Microsoft credentials
Business Central connects through Carden's multi-tenant Microsoft Entra application using app-only (client credentials) access. A Microsoft Entra administrator consents once, and the merchant enables Carden in Business Central with a read-only permission set. Carden stores no Microsoft passwords, refresh tokens, or merchant secrets.
| Field | Business Central source | Carden behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | Invoice number, item number, line IDs, and customer purchase-order reference. | Preserved with entity tags and modification times for replay and audit. |
| Amounts | Line tax, line and invoice discounts, totals, and remaining balance. | Stored as integer minor units; any total that does not reconcile blocks the invoice. |
| Units | Each line's unit of measure code. | Used as the selling unit; a confirmed mapping fills it only when the line has none. |
| Currency | The invoice currency, or the company's local currency when blank. | Only supported two-decimal currencies; a malformed code never falls back. |
