# Submit a Document

## How to submit an AP invoice document for capture and processing.

**Payables Permissions:** Upload and review documents 

#### File requirements

1. Accepted file types: PDF, PNG, JPEG, or CSV.
2. File should contain one invoice. Use a [PDF splitter](https://www.adobe.com/gr_en/acrobat/online/split-pdf.html) to split documents containing multiple invoices.
3. Less than 20MB per file
4. Document should be from a supplier active in the General Ledger.
5. Can be typed or handwritten

 

#### Upload a document

To add a document directly into Centime, navigate to the **Documents** tab and click on **+ ADD.**

You can drag and drop your documents into the indicated area below. Alternatively, clicking on that area will open up a window on your computer to search for and select the files. You can upload several files simultaneously.

 

#### Submit via email

To email documents into Centime, attach the documents and send them to the email address created specifically for your business entity. You can attach multiple files in one email, however, one file should correspond to only one invoice, as each attachment will be captured as a separate invoice document in Centime. Filtering is in place to prevent email signature images from being captured as invoices (based on image file size and character count).

 

Your email will be in the format [docs+business\_entity\_name@centime.com](mailto:docs+business_entity_name@centime.com). You can verify the email in the add document window.

 

 

#### After Submission

Submitting a document will trigger [invoice capture](https://knowledgebase.centime.com/support/invoice-capture-creation-and-editing?hsLang=en-us), which extracts required data points from the document. After that process completes, a new document record will appear in the documents tab for review, approval routing (as needed), posting, and payment.
