AR Invoice exported in Zugferd, XRechnung or VDA format

Hi Epicor Users,
We have received an request from BMW Germany that they only accept AR invoices in Zugferd, XRechnung or VDA format and not in PDF/paper format. Alternative would be to implement EDI but we only had 40 invoices in a year and this would not justify the cost of EDI implementation.

I checked the Electronic interfaces available and did not find anything even remotely similar.
Did anyone implement one of these exports and if yes then how ?

Many thanks,
Mihai

The German CSF can create ZUGFeRD e-invoices.
The Swedish and Norwegian CSFs can create Peppol e-invoices.
XRechnung is Peppol compliant, you just need to make some small changes to make a Peppol invoice XRechnung compliant.

Unfortunately, this functionality is only available from within the German/Swedish/Norwegian companies that have the CSF enabled, even though the bulk of the e-invoicing framework is either in base Epicor, or in the e-invoicing extension that is common to all these CSFs.

Thank you,
indeed these formats are only specific to Germany. I have reached out to Epicor Support and they have promised to deliver a solution in the next weeks but only on Kinetic 24.1 and future. As we are on Kinetic 21.2 we will have to build a small customization to export the data in the required format at least until next year when we have scheduled an upgrade to “latest and greatest”.
