QR code for online banking on invoices

In addition to bank details, invoices often include a QR code that allows the invoice recipient to make a transfer directly in their banking app. Create the QR code yourself in the PDF-templates from the Labordatenbank.

First, position the design element at the desired location. Select a width of at least 20 mm so that the QR code remains clearly legible.

The following entries are entered in the content field of the design element:
