UBL invoice

Modified on Thu, 15 Oct at 8:55 AM

The UBL invoice like NMbrs Accounting can read-out and process or can produce as an attachment with the sales invoice complies with the standard that is internationally agreed upon. Despite the international agreements there are quite a few 'dialects'. When there are some leads within the data that is submitted then Nmbrs Accounting will process it correctly. When data is missing like for example a VAT number then it will be more difficult to process the data correctly.


Nmbrs Accounting can automatically split an invoice submitted in UBL format into a number of invoice lines during processing using UBL rules (processing rules).


Below the invoice as it is made up of sections is described. General documentation on UBL 2.0 can also be used for further reference. The documentation describes what the labels should be and how the content should be composed. A label is for example <cbc:IssueDate> and the content is then 2018-06-23 so a four-digit year then the month followed by the day.
