What invowerk creates

A ZUGFeRD PDF is a PDF/A-3 with an embedded XML file in the EN 16931 profile. An XRechnung is an XML file in the CII syntax. Besides the standard invoice, invowerk also creates partial invoices, partial construction invoices, partial final and final construction invoices, credit notes and corrected invoices. Enter advance payments already made as the paid amount. invowerk then shows the amount due.

Checked before download

invowerk checks every file before download. The XRechnung is checked by the KoSIT validator, the validation program of the Coordination Office for IT Standards (KoSIT). invowerk checks the ZUGFeRD PDF against the FeRD validation rules and for PDF/A. invowerk does not hand out a file with errors.
