Create E-Invoices

Create new invoices and recurring invoices according to the EN 16931 standard in minutes, including per-line tax logic, recipient defaults, attachments, and a custom PDF as the invoice base.

Intelligent Recipient & Master Data Management

Select clients and business partners from saved contacts. Billance checks required recipient fields such as the routing ID, electronic address, and VAT ID for completeness and highlights missing data before export. Use the invoice designer to customize the visual layout as well.

Flexible VAT & Tax Rules per Line Item

Set tax rates, exemptions, and related codes such as reverse charge or tax-free intra-Community supplies per line item. Billance maps these details into the structured XML and keeps calculations and breakdowns traceable. The professional tax classification remains your responsibility or that of your advisor.

Directly Visible BT Numbers for Maximum Transparency

Billance makes the data structure behind an e-invoice transparent. Select an input or its label to see the corresponding Business Term number, such as BT-81 for the payment method. This helps you assign required data and correct formal findings precisely.

Live PDF Preview and Flexible Generation Options

Inspect your e-invoice before sending it with the integrated real-time preview. Choose your preferred design in the invoice designer, customize the language, and control output options such as embedded attachments or a custom PDF letterhead. Depending on the selected format, Billance creates an XRechnung or a ZUGFeRD document with a human-readable PDF and structured XML. The subsequent validation helps you check formal requirements before sharing it.
