Question 5

Invoice digitally using UBL format

Accepted Answer

UBL, what is it?

UBL (Universal Business Language) is the new default for electronically invoicing. A UBL file is an XML file constructed following a strict set of rules so everyone can read it and know what data the file carries.

Usually, a UBL file is always sent together with a PDF version of the invoice. That way a customer can read the PDF file, while an accounting software can read the UBL file. That way you don't need to type over your invoice into your accounting software anymore.

UBL and Comanage

There are three ways to get UBL files in CoManage:

When sending an invoice, credit note or reminder When sending an invoice, credit note or invoice reminder, the email sent to the client will always have two attachments. One is the PDF version and the other the UBL file (file extension .xml).
When exporting invoices as PDF When exporting one or multiple invoices as PDF this will also include the UBL.

You will receive a ZIP file containing both the PDF versions and the UBL versions of all exported invoices.

On the public invoice page It's also possible to download the PDF version of an invoice on the public invoice page. Next to that download button you will find one for UBL as well.

So what can I do with UBL files?

In most accounting programs it's possible to import UBL documents. This means that you can add your invoices to your acc

You're only starting to use CoManage and would like to add your customers in the tool? Easy!

Import file (CSV) In CoManage you can import your data using CSV files. A CSV file is actually a simplified version of an Excel file. For more information about saving an Excel file as a CSV-file, check your Excel program help. In Microsoft Office it's really a piece of cake. You just have to change the file type to '.csv' when saving it!

Starting your import You can start importing data by navigating to the overview page. There you can just click the 'import' button.

After that you just select the CSV file you want to import.

Selecting your columns In CoManage you can choose the order of your import columns. In the following page, all you need to do is select each column to say what data it represents. There are also a bunch of settings you can choose, like what you're importing, what your date format is, at what line to begin,…

Done! Now all you need to do is wait for the import to finish. After that you jump to an overview page where you see if there were any errors and to revert the import, if you'd want to retry.
