The Factur-X format is a PDF format used to exchange dematerialized invoices. Factur-X dematerialized supplier invoices can be imported in Akuiteo in order to be recreated as final invoices, which are invoices that might be incomplete and thus need to be checked and completed in order to be validated. Validated temporary invoices then become final invoices in Akuiteo.
Before importing dematerialized invoices, it is recommended to set up journal links, project links and purchased product links from the Settings Portal.
Reference
For more information about journal links, project links and purchased product links, refer to Managing project links, Managing journal links and Managing purchased product links.
There are several ways to import Factur-X files:
- With the DematReceptionFacturesAchat batch;
- Manually, one invoice by one.
When created, temporary invoices are in the To be processed status, which means that they must be validated before becoming final.
The management of temporary invoices is accessible from the Purchase Portal in the Temporary invoices menu.
Note
A same Factur-X with the same number cannot be imported (except when it was rejected).
All invoices imported in the Purchase Portal are multi-projects. Indeed, a project can only be specified on each lines and not on the whole invoice. Thus, if the item contains only one project, this same project will be on all the lines.
Importing dematerialized invoices with the DematReceptionFacturesAchat batch
The DematReceptionFacturesAchat batch is used to import the purchase Factur-X files transmitted by suppliers via the Approved Platform, according to the communication method configured in the Settings Portal.
