A discount on an invoice line is specified as a percentage in the Discount % column on the Create Invoice page. Even though the discount is specified as a percentage, it will appear both as an amount and a percentage when the invoice is delivered to the recipient. Please note that the discount only applies to the current invoice line, not to the entire invoice.

Delivery Methods, Attachments, and References
1. How do I change the delivery method on the invoice?
You can choose between three different delivery methods: e-invoice, PDF, and paper invoice (paper requires Web Plus). You can change the delivery method in two different ways:
-
On the customer card in your customer register under Invoice Settings > Send as. See the image below:
If you send a PDF invoice to the customer, the email address is specified in the field Send to (when PDF).

2. How do I add an OCR number and other references to my invoice?
By clicking on More References in the header of the Create Invoice page, you can add more references and payment instructions to your invoice.
3. What should I enter in the field Your Reference Number on the invoice?
Here you fill in the reference number (also called reference code, order reference, order ID, etc.) that you have received from your customer in cases where the customer requires this on their invoices. The reference number identifies, for example, a specific person or department at your customer’s organization and facilitates the handling of your invoice when it is received.
When automatic reference checking is enabled, this information is mandatory and must be filled in correctly. The reference number typically consists of numbers and/or letters. Only enter the reference itself in the field without any other characters or spaces that should not be included. Follow the instructions you have received from your customer.
In case of problems with reference validation, please contact your customer for more information.
The appearance of reference numbers may vary. Here are some examples:
YY01234
123456
Anna Andersson
4. Can I send a PDF invoice to multiple email addresses?
You can send your PDF invoices to multiple email addresses at the same time by placing a comma between each email address (without spaces).
Examples that work: (Separated by commas without spaces)
mail1@domain.com,mail2@domain.com,mail3@domain.com
Examples that do not work: (Separated by commas and spaces/semicolon)
mail1@domain.com , mail2@domain.com , mail3@domain.com
mail1@domain.com ; mail2@domain.com ; mail3@domain.com

The following settings need to be made on the customer card for each delivery method: e-invoice, PDF, and paper invoice.
E-invoice
- Select the delivery method E-invoice from the dropdown menu.
- Ensure that there is a connection to the correct e-invoice recipient in the network under Connection to InExchange Network. You can search by company name, organization number (without dashes), or GLN.

VAT, Summaries, and Payment Details
1. How do I change the VAT rate?
Invoice lines default to 25% VAT (unless settings have been made on the account), but you can add more and change the VAT rate on invoice lines as needed. If you use different VAT rates on the invoice lines, these will be summarized by VAT rate at the bottom of the invoice.
Click the arrow to the right of the VAT rate on the relevant invoice line to change or add a new VAT rate.
Change VAT Rate on an Invoice Line
1. When you click the arrow as shown in the image above, the available VAT rates will be displayed. Select the VAT rate that should apply to the invoice line or add a new one according to the instructions in point B.
Add a New VAT Rate
1. Select Add New/Change after you have clicked the arrow to the right of the VAT rate on the relevant invoice line.
2. Then click on Add New in the box that appears.
3. Enter the new VAT rate in the empty row in the form. In our example, we write 0%.
4. Check Standard if you want the new VAT rate to be used as the default on all new invoice lines and click Save to return to the invoice.
5. The new VAT rate has now been added to the list.
Repeat the steps to add more VAT rates if needed.
2. How do I send an invoice where VAT is included at the line level?
According to the e-invoice standard we use in Sweden (Svefaktura), there is no support for invoices where the amounts of the lines include VAT, primarily because the standard is mainly developed for municipalities and county councils. The invoice lines must be specified excluding VAT.
You can read more about this standard on the SFTI website >>
3. How do I send an invoice with reverse payment liability?

- In the Bank field, you can enter either the full name of the bank or its Swift/BIC code. Fill in your details and then save your changes.
5. Why have I not received any payment for my sent invoice?
When an invoice appears under the Sent Invoices view on our website, you can expect that the invoice in question is valid and that it is on its way/delivered to the recipient. Once the invoice is delivered to the recipient, the responsibility for the invoice passes to the recipient. If there are any questions regarding the invoice, the recipient should contact you to clarify.
If an invoice, which appears in the Sent Invoices view, has not been paid, you need to contact the recipient to find out why it has not been paid. If you are unsure of the recipient's contact details, you can search for the company's details in our network >>
