XRechnung and e-invoice

Die Agenturverwaltung supports X-invoice and E-invoice both for receipt and for sending.

Outgoing invoices are created in the hybrid PDF/A3 format Zugferd 2.2. They are readable by both humans and machines. Your outgoing invoice in PDF format is therefore already an E-invoice, you don't need to do anything else.

When recording purchase invoices, other standards are also supported, such as the X-invoice in Zugferd format, UBL or CII and various foreign European standards (Factur X, FatturaX, ...).

If a purchase invoice contains such data, that data is also used - even if the PDF view of that invoice may show different and even extended data.

Distinguishing X- and E-invoices from regular invoices

X- or E-invoices from your suppliers can be recognized by a small green ribbon in the list of purchase invoices.

When recording an X- or E-invoice, the form shows at the very bottom that the data comes from the embedded XML of that invoice (not from the PDF).
