How do I activate self-billing on my account?

Creating a self-billing invoice

Step 1: Select counterparty

First select the counterparty (supplier). After selection, the self-billing settings of this counterparty will be loaded.

Step 2: Document details

• Choose "Self-billing invoice" or "Self-billing credit note" as document type.
  

• The document number is automatically filled in based on the numbering per counterparty (e.g. 2025-001, 2025-002, ...).
  

• If no numbering has been set yet, enter the first number — this immediately sets the pattern.

Step 3: Invoice lines

Add the products and services as you would on a regular invoice. Note: if the counterparty is exempt from VAT, you can only select 0% VAT.

Step 4: Payment information

With self-billing, the QR code, thank you message, and payment banner are automatically hidden (the recipient does not need to pay).
