  1. Check the customer’s invoicing settings and select eSLOG 2.0 as the electronic invoice format. Verify the parties’ addresses, tax details, bank accounts, and required bank identifiers.
  2. Review and confirm the customer invoice. Check the payment reference: spaces in an exported reference are rejected.
  3. Click Send and review the selected electronic format and generated attachments. Generate or send the document using the available sending method.
  4. Download the generated XML when the recipient requires file delivery, or use Bizbox when that channel is configured. Check the delivery result independently of XML generation.
  1. Open vendor bills and upload the original eSLOG 2.0 XML using the invoice-document upload action. Do not use spreadsheet field import for this XML.
  2. Review the resulting draft’s supplier, reference, dates, currency, bank account, lines, and taxes against the original document.
  3. Compare the totals and inspect the chatter for import warnings. The original XML remains attached; a successful upload does not establish that all values match.
  4. Resolve differences with accounting, then follow vendor-bill verification before confirming or paying.

Search for an existing bill before importing. Do not upload the file repeatedly to fix a warning, and do not modify a supplier’s XML to force agreement with a different amount. A file export is not proof of receipt by the customer.
