cks.eINVOICE – Electronic Invoices for SAP Business One
With cks.eINVOICE, you can create and process electronic invoices directly within your SAP Business One system and seamlessly integrate e-invoicing into your existing business processes.

As of January 1, 2025, businesses are required to be able to receive electronic invoices. In the years that follow, the creation and transmission of e-invoices will gradually become mandatory.

structured invoice formats (e.g., for automated exchange)
specific requirements from business partners
