Configure B2Bconnector for Windows

The B2Bconnector is a program for Windows systems that allows you to synchronize local folders with B2Brouter for the automatic sending and receiving of electronic documents (invoices, orders, responses, etc.).

This connector acts as a bridge between your file system and the platform, enabling B2Brouter to read and write documents from configured folders on your Windows computer or server.
