# Overview

With the PDF document module, you can upload invoices, credit memos, shipments and other documents directly from Business Central to Shopware.

The ***PDF document module*** extends the Shopware 6 API Connector with the option to upload sales documents as PDF files to your customers in Shopware. The documents are displayed in the Shopware customer portal, where they can be downloaded.

## 1. Prerequisites

### 1.1 Shopware plugin

To use this feature, the **s*****olutioo Invoice Documents*** plugin must be installed in your Shopware shop. This plugin provides the API endpoints as well as the customer portal view.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Without the Shopware plugin, the PDF upload from Business Central does not work!
{% endhint %}

### 1.2 Activation in Business Central

To do so, open *"Shopware"* <i class="fa-right">:right:</i> *"Settings" / "Configuration".* In the window that opens, switch to *"Edit mode"* (click the pencil icon at the top). Then enable the *"**Enable PDF Generation**"* option in the *"**Shopware Modules**"* area.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.solutioo.de/shopware/shopware6_en_us/pdf-documents/overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
