Opter can be integrated with a number of financial systems and supplier bills can be exported from Opter to those systems. TheType drop-down list shows the systems to which it is possible to export supplier bills. This window is used to create supplier bill exports.

The various integrations differ in terms of the information transferred and the settings required, so we recommend that you follow the instructions for the particular integration in which you are interested.
