Meet your Continia Partner in Canada
Tired of chasing paper invoices and expense reports? Systema Solutions helps Canadian finance teams put Continia's automation tools to work inside Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, so your people can spend less time on data entry and more time on the work that actually moves your business forward.
What is Continia, and why do finance teams love it?
Continia is a family of add-on solutions built directly into Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central that automate the paperwork-heavy parts of finance: incoming invoices, employee expenses, outgoing payments, and document distribution. Because everything runs in Business Central and isn't bolted on via a separate integration, your team keeps working in the interface they already know.
For over 25 years, Continia has helped finance teams reduce manual processing by up to 90%. Today, more than 15,000 companies worldwide run at least one Continia solution, supported by a network of 900+ certified partners, including Systema Solutions right here in Canada.

Continia solutions available through Systema Solutions
Whether you're drowning in vendor invoices or chasing down expense reports, there's a Continia solution built for the job. Here's what we can set up for your team:
What it does for your team:
AI-driven recognition reads PDFs, scanned images, and structured e-invoice formats (including Peppol and XRechnung) and automatically extracts the details. No manual keying required.
Automatic three-way matching checks invoices against purchase orders and receipts, flagging only the exceptions that require human attention.
Approve invoices from anywhere, whether from a desktop, phone, or the Continia Web Approval Portal, so approvals never bottleneck because someone's travelling.
Purchase Contracts module automatically recognizes recurring invoices against agreed contract terms, catching billing errors before they're paid.
Built-in fraud protection, including bank account verification, flags suspicious vendor changes before a payment goes out the door.
Fully searchable digital archive with complete audit trails, so nothing gets lost and nothing is ever somewhere in a filing cabinet.
Continia Document Capture: Take invoice processing off your plate
Stop typing in invoices by hand
Every invoice that lands in your inbox is one more thing pulling your AP team away from higher-value work.
Document Capture reads, sorts, and routes your invoices automatically using AI-powered OCR that keeps getting smarter the more it processes.
What it does for your team:
AI Receipt Scanner reads receipts the moment they're photographed, so employees aren't manually typing amounts and vendors.
Mileage tracking via Google Maps calculates distance automatically, no more guessing or odometer photos.
Credit card integration imports and matches transactions directly to expense claims.
Per diem and travel activity logging captures daily allowances as they happen, not weeks later from memory.
Payroll integration pushes approved reimbursements straight into your payroll run.
ESG data capture lets employees log travel-related emissions alongside expenses, which is useful as more Canadian businesses face sustainability reporting expectations.
Continia Expense Management: Expenses, without the headache
Let your team submit expenses from their phone
Nobody enjoys chasing crumpled receipts at the end of the month. Continia's mobile app (iOS and Android) lets employees snap a photo and submit an expense in seconds while your finance team gets clean, accurate data flowing straight into Business Central.
What's new in Continia? (2026 release)
Continia ships two major releases each year, in April and October, timed to Microsoft's Business Central release schedule. Recent updates our Canadian clients are already benefiting from include:
Continia Copilot and AI recognition
This keeps improving invoice-reading accuracy and automatically suggests vendor matches.
Enhanced fraud checks
This is for vendor bank account and phone number changes, adding another layer of protection against payment fraud.
Expanded e-invoicing support
It includes Peppol network connectivity, for businesses trading internationally or preparing for e-invoicing mandates.
A unified Web Approval Portal
This is where expense claims and purchase documents now live side-by-side for approvers.
Deeper Continia Banking integration
This connects payment workflows and cash visibility directly to your financial institution.
We keep our implementations up to date with every release, so your team is always working with the latest tools, not a version two years behind.
Our Continia Consulting Services
Discovery & Scoping
We start by understanding how invoices and expenses move through your business today: who's involved, where the bottlenecks are, and how many you're processing each month. From there, we help you choose the right Continia modules and put together a licensing plan based on your actual volume, not a generic package.
Implementation & Configuration
We install and configure Continia inside your Business Central environment, whether cloud or on-premises, and train the AI recognition engine on your specific vendor invoices. This includes building approval workflows, setting up three-way matching, configuring fraud protections, and where needed, e-invoicing formats like Peppol. For expense implementations, we also configure mileage rules, per diems, credit card feeds, and payroll integration.
Data & Integration
We map and migrate your vendor and general ledger data so nothing gets lost in the transition, and set up your searchable digital archive with full audit trails from day one. Where Continia needs to connect with other systems you already use, like payroll or credit cards, we handle that integration so data flows automatically.
Testing & Go Live
Before going live, we run your team through testing using real invoices and expense scenarios rather than sample data. Many clients run Continia alongside their old process briefly to compare results and build confidence. Once live, we stay close for the first few weeks to catch and resolve anything before it becomes a habit.
Training & Change Management
We train your AP clerks, approvers, and expense submitters on the parts of the system relevant to their work, and separately train whoever owns ongoing administration. We also leave your team with clear reference guides, so day-to-day questions don't always need to come back to us.
Ongoing Support
Continia ships two major releases a year, and we keep your implementation current with each one. Beyond upgrades, we offer flexible support plans sized for small and mid-sized businesses, along with periodic check-ins to fine-tune workflows as your volume or processes change.
Why Canadian businesses choose Systema Solutions

-
We offer support that fits your size, with flexible, cost-effective plans built for small to mid-sized businesses rather than priced for enterprise budgets.
Common questions about Continia
Does Continia work with the Canadian version of Business Central? Yes. Continia is fully compatible with the Canadian localization of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, including GST/HST handling, and is available in both cloud and on-premises deployments.
How much does Continia cost? Continia is licensed based on the modules you need and your number of users. Because every business's invoice volume and expense workflow looks different, we put together a tailored quote after a short discovery call. Please reach out and we'll walk you through real numbers for your situation.
How long does it take to implement Continia? Most Document Capture or Expense Management implementations are up and running within a few weeks, not months. Since the solution is built inside Business Central, there's no separate system to integrate or maintain.
Can I try Continia before committing? Yes. We offer a free personalized demo using your own document types and workflows, so you can see exactly how it will behave in your environment before making a decision.
What makes Systema Solutions different from other Continia partners in Canada? We're a lean, Alberta-based team with over 40 years of combined Dynamics 365 experience, focused specifically on small to mid-sized Canadian businesses. That means direct access to the consultants actually doing your implementation and a support plan sized to fit your budget, not an enterprise price tag.
