E-Invoice

It turns Magento invoice data into a structured electronic invoice that accounting or procurement software can process. SoftwareSilo keeps generation, validation, storage, email attachment, and download functions inside the Magento workflow.

For invoices, the current extension supports ZUGFeRD 2.3.x, Factur-X 1.07.x, XRechnung 3.0.x, EN 16931 XML, and PEPPOL BIS Billing 3.0 UBL. The format is selected as a store-level default.

A simple PDF is readable but does not contain the structured data required by the German definition of an E-Invoice since 2025. ZUGFeRD and Factur-X solve this by embedding structured data in PDF/A-3; XRechnung and PEPPOL BIS use XML.

XRechnung is a structured XML specification widely used for German public-sector invoicing. ZUGFeRD combines structured invoice data with a readable PDF/A-3. The recipient, transaction type, and agreed delivery channel determine which is appropriate.

Yes. Invoice output supports Factur-X 1.07.x as a hybrid PDF/A-3 document with embedded structured data. Credit memo generation in Factur-X is not included in the current standard package.

Yes. The extension generates PEPPOL BIS Billing 3.0 UBL invoice files and can include seller and buyer electronic endpoint identifiers. It does not transmit those files through the Peppol network.

Yes, if the recipient expects delivery through the Peppol network. SoftwareSilo generates the BIS Billing file in Magento; an Access Point or delivery provider handles network discovery, transport, and delivery.

Yes. The current package generates structured credit memos for ZUGFeRD, XRechnung, and PEPPOL BIS Billing. It links the correction to the original invoice where the available Magento data allows it.

Not in the current standard package. Factur-X and generic EN 16931 are available for invoice output, while credit memo output is registered for ZUGFeRD, XRechnung, and PEPPOL BIS Billing.

Generation can run when an invoice is created or paid. It can happen immediately, through the Magento queue, hourly, or daily. Manual generation is also available, and credit memo behavior is configured separately.

The standard package uses a default format configured per store scope. Automatic per-customer selection within the same store is not included and should be planned as a project-specific extension if recipients have different requirements.

The extension offers minimal, standard, and strict levels. These cover document structure and business checks, with strict validation able to use supplied XML schemas. Validation helps find errors but does not replace tax or legal review.

Failures are recorded with status and messages. The store can retry failed work, notify a configured email address after a threshold, and decide whether an error should block the related process.

Yes. Invoice and credit memo emails can receive XML, PDF, both, or an automatic attachment appropriate to the selected format. The exact attachment behavior is configurable.

Yes. Logged-in customers can download the generated E-Invoice from their invoice area. The extension also includes handling for authorized guest invoice downloads where the Magento guest access conditions are met.

Yes. Authorized administrators can generate and download individual documents and use mass operations to collect multiple E-Invoices in a ZIP archive.

Configuration covers VAT ID, tax number, registration number, SIRET, GLN, DUNS, trading name, seller Leitweg-ID, contact details, IBAN, BIC, and fiscal representative information. Only relevant fields need to be used.

Yes. Buyer references and electronic address values can be resolved from Magento and configuration. A Leitweg-ID is normally a B2G requirement rather than a general domestic B2B requirement, so the recipient's specification should decide its use.

The module groups tax amounts and resolves standard, zero-rated, exempt, reverse-charge, intra-community supply, export, and outside-scope categories. Exemption reasons and a small-business setting are available where applicable.

Yes. Seller bank details, payment terms, due dates, and mappings from Magento payment methods to electronic payment means can be included according to the selected format and configuration.

Yes. REST endpoints support single and bulk generation for invoices and credit memos. Generated XML and PDF paths are also exposed through Magento extension attributes for authorized API consumers.

No dedicated GraphQL interface is included in the current package. Magento REST services, admin actions, scheduled processing, queues, and command-line tools are available.

No software can replace a review of the merchant's transaction, data, recipient rules, delivery channel, and current law. The extension creates supported technical formats and validation results, but the merchant remains responsible for configuration and compliance.

Test real invoices, tax rates, discounts, shipping, refunds, payment terms, buyer references, endpoint identifiers, email attachments, downloads, validation, and the recipient's import. Include at least one rejected document to verify support procedures.

The license is valid for one Magento installation, including multi-website operation. In addition, the module may be installed on any number of development or staging servers. You can find further details in our license terms.

Installation and configuration are not included in the price. On request, we can support you with a smooth integration into your system.

Composer is PHP's package manager, and Magento 2 uses it to install modules and their dependencies. After purchase, the commands for your module are available under Licenses in your customer account. First add the private SoftwareSilo repository and your license token. Then install the listed package with composer require and run php bin/magento setup:upgrade and php bin/magento cache:clean.

After credit card payment, you immediately receive access credentials to obtain the module via Composer. For bank transfer, access is granted once the invoice is paid.

Custom requests are no problem. We tailor our Magento 2 modules to your project and maintain a dedicated internal version so we always know exactly what runs on your system for support.

On each module detail page, you can request your own demo instance and test the module intensively for 7 days. However, we do not provide a local demo version.

No, the source code of our modules is not encrypted. If you need a customization, feel free to send us a request. We will get back to you promptly with a non-binding quote.
