What is e-invoicing?

E-invoicing solutions offer companies the opportunity to revolutionize their invoice processing. Digitizing invoices reduces errors, minimizes supplier inquiries, speeds up approval processes and improves compliance.

Advantages of electronic invoicing

Electronic invoicing, also known as e-invoicing, optimizes invoice management and facilitates the integration of invoices and compliance documents.

By digitally processing invoice data and matching it with contracts, purchase orders, service entry sheets and goods receipts, the risk of errors and exceptions is minimized. Electronic invoices transmitted over a digital network and programmed using document data and business rules can be automatically reconciled before payment is approved. Since digital information is more easily accessible across systems than paper-based receipts, electronic invoicing offers numerous advantages:

What is ZUGFeRD?

ZUGFeRD stands for "Central User Guide of the forum electronic Invoice Germany" and is a hybrid format that contains both machine-readable XML data and a human-readable PDF document. This enables companies to process invoices efficiently without the need for manual data entry. For B2B companies, this offers significant advantages as it makes the Invoicing process accelerated and errors minimized. However, ZUGFeRD is not new, but is already a proven standard that must now be used consistently from 2025.

The Growth Opportunities Act, which was introduced by the federal government in March 2024, aims to Digitization of the economy voranzutreiben. Ein wichtiger Bestandteil dieses Gesetzes ist die Förderung der elektronischen Rechnungsstellung. Unternehmen werden dazu ermutigt, papierbasierte Prozesse zu digitalisieren und standardisierte eRechnungsformate wie ZUGFeRD zu nutzen.
