Activation of the e-invoice / X-invoice in your laboratory database

To activate the e-invoice in ZUGFeRD format, go to your system settings in the Invoice area. Activate the e-invoice there and add your company data.

Then please go through your customer list once and complete the newly appeared field Country code

If you now send an invoice from your laboratory database, there is an embedded attachment in the PDF, an XML file that maps the X invoice format. You can display this in a PDF viewer.
