Accountable offers two options for sending e-invoices. One is XRechnung and the other is PEPPOL.

To send XRechnungen, you can write your invoices as usual in Accountable. If you have not yet written an invoice with Accountable, take a look at this guide.

Once you have written your invoice, you have 2 options to continue:

1) Click on “Continue” in the top right corner

2) Select “Save & download XRechnung”

You have now successfully downloaded your XRechnung and can send it.

1) Click on “Continue” in the top right corner

2) Select “Save & send"

The following window will now open:

3) Enter the recipient (and adjust the text if necessary)

4) The XRechnung is automatically added. Now you just have to click on “Send invoice”

To register with PEPPOL and send e-invoices via PEPPOL, please go to Account -> Settings -> E-invoicing in the web version. Follow the instructions in the app.

You can of course also send invoices that you have written externally with Accountable in e-invoice format. This works as follows:

1) Click on Import invoice

2) Upload your invoice

3) Click on “Review now”)

4) Mark the invoice as “not sent” and check the encoded data

5) Click on the letter symbol here to “Send invoice”

6) Enter the recipient (and adjust the text if necessary) Now all you have to do is click on “Send invoice” (the X invoice is automatically attached)

E-invoices are becoming increasingly important and will soon be mandatory for you. But what exactly are e-invoices, what advantages do they offer and what legal requirements must be met?

Find out in this video as Tino, founder of Accountable, explains it all.
