What Facturwise does for ERP users

ZUGFeRD 2.4: ready from day one

Your client requests a compliant ZUGFeRD e-invoice. Your ERP cannot generate it without configuration or a separate project. Facturwise generates the hybrid PDF with embedded XML, EN 16931 compliant, from the free plan, no activation needed. Your client receives a readable PDF. Their accounting system reads the embedded XML data automatically.

XRechnung for public authorities

Invoices to German federal, state and municipal bodies, B2G invoicing in pure XML format. Facturwise generates XRechnung 3.0 automatically. No portal. No extra software. Your ERP stays untouched. Your client provides the Leitweg-ID routing number and Facturwise handles the rest.

Factur-X for French clients

Invoicing French companies too? French B2B e-invoicing requires Factur-X 1.0.8 under EN 16931. Facturwise generates it automatically from the same account. No separate tool. No separate login. The same workflow you use for German clients works for French clients.

Peppol BIS 3.0 for Belgian and Dutch clients

Belgian and Dutch B2B clients increasingly require invoices over the Peppol network. Facturwise generates Peppol BIS 3.0 compliant invoices from the same account. All four formats, one login.

DATEV export for your accountant

A DATEV-compatible CSV export every month, on all plans including free. Your accountant gets exactly the format they know. Your bookkeeping stays unchanged. No new accounting workflow required.

How it works

1

Create your invoice in Facturwise

Enter your client details, line items and payment terms. Facturwise knows which format each client requires and applies it automatically. No format selection. No manual XML editing.

2

Download or send

Facturwise generates the compliant file instantly. ZUGFeRD and Factur-X invoices are hybrid PDFs, readable by your client and processable by their system. XRechnung invoices are pure XML, ready for submission to public authority portals. Download the file or send it directly from Facturwise.

3

Export to your accountant

At the end of each month, export a DATEV-compatible CSV. Hand it to your accountant or tax advisor. Your ERP bookkeeping continues exactly as before. Nothing in your existing process changes.

Why not just configure your ERP

This is the obvious question. Here is the honest answer.

Most ERP systems support e-invoicing in theory. In practice, getting ZUGFeRD or XRechnung working in your specific installation means one of three things: a configuration project with your ERP partner, a paid add-on module, or waiting for a version update that includes the German localisation package.

These are not fast or cheap options. ERP implementation projects for e-invoicing compliance typically take weeks and cost thousands of euros in consultancy fees, depending on the system and the partner.

Facturwise is a different approach. It does not touch your ERP. It runs alongside it. You are creating compliant outgoing invoices the same day you sign up, without a project, without IT involvement, and without a consultancy invoice.

If your ERP partner eventually delivers a working ZUGFeRD module, you can reassess. Until then, Facturwise gets you compliant today.

Which ERPs have this gap

SAP

SAP supports ZUGFeRD output in certain versions and modules, but the configuration for EN 16931-compliant outgoing invoices is not standard in most installations. Many companies running SAP for finance and procurement find their outgoing invoice module produces a standard PDF with no embedded XML. Getting ZUGFeRD working in SAP typically requires FI configuration or a third-party add-on.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Business Central has ZUGFeRD support in some versions with the German localisation package installed. Many installations, particularly those on older versions or without the German localisation, cannot produce compliant outgoing e-invoices without a separate configuration project.

See Business Central page →

Odoo

Odoo has e-invoicing modules available, but ZUGFeRD and XRechnung support depends on which modules are installed and configured. Many Odoo users find their outgoing invoice workflow produces a standard PDF that does not meet EN 16931 requirements.

See Odoo page →

Other ERP systems

If your ERP produces outgoing invoices as standard PDFs without embedded XML, it is not generating EN 16931-compliant e-invoices. Facturwise closes that gap regardless of which ERP you use.
