Setting up e-invoicing
E-invoicing is included in Bp Event as of version 12.1p25. Customised settings are possible within the scope of legal requirements.
E-invoicing in 4 steps:
Step 1 Update* to the latest version (no earlier than 12.1p25)
Step 2 Load scenario
Step 3 Activate e-invoice and enter payment account
Step 4 Check and make the necessary adjustments to the invoice text template
As soon as the e-invoice has been enabled in the administration and an e-invoice payment account has been entered, further fields are available on the customer account Added Fields tab.
Important:
The e-invoice has been seamlessly integrated into Bp Event with all known legal requirements. If you want to use the e-invoice, your invoice templates must be adapted to the legal requirements. All contents of the XML file are also displayed in the PDF files based on the "E-invoice" sample template.
Decide whether you want to use the new template or have your existing invoice template customised. Please contact your account manager or the hotline.
