Instead of tedious manual data entry, you export all relevant accounting data with a single click in the standardized DATEV format. Whether accounts receivable, accounts payable, or general ledger accounts - all posting types are transferred completely and correctly formatted. This not only saves time but also minimizes transfer errors and ensures smooth collaboration with your tax office. ### Automated DATEV-Compatible Export Export your entire accounting data in one step in the DATEV-compliant format. The system automatically generates all required files including header information, chart of accounts mapping, and document references - ready for direct import into DATEV. ### Support for All Posting Types Whether outgoing invoices, incoming invoices, payments, or corrective postings - the DATEV export supports all posting types of your business. Down payments, credit notes, and periodic accruals are also correctly represented in the DATEV format. ### Hand over as a file or straight through the DATEV interface The finished batch is available as an EXTF file to download and reaches your accountant the way it always did. If the DATEV account is connected over OAuth, Nuxbe uploads the file into the client environment directly instead and keeps polling the processing status until DATEV either confirms the import or reports an error. In practiceThree routes your data takes to the accountant ---------------------------------------------- ### The monthly posting batch At month end one run builds the batch from every invoice added since the last export. Each line carries the ledger account derived from the VAT rate of the position and points at the stored document, so nobody has to ask where an invoice lives. ### Absences for payroll Holiday, sick leave and the remaining absence types leave Nuxbe as their own export in LODAS format, or as CSV or Excel. Each absence type is mapped once to its wage type key; after that the file is produced on every run without further input. ### Queries from your accountant When your accountant asks about individual documents, the questions become an inquiry letter whose entries hang on the order they concern. Answers and comments stay documented on the document instead of disappearing into an email thread. SetupFrom consultant number to first batch ------------------------------------- Setup starts with the client master data: consultant number, client number, ledger account length between four and nine digits, and the start of the fiscal year. These values sit in the header of every EXTF file and decide whether DATEV accepts the batch at all. Next, every VAT rate gets a revenue and an expense account, and every payment type its contra account. Where DATEV expects a posting key, it is stored on the VAT rate. If one of these mappings is missing, the export deliberately stops rather than writing lines against a guessed account. A cut-off date defines when exporting begins, so historical data from before the switch stays out. If you only want the file to download, that is the whole setup. Direct upload adds a one-time connection of the DATEV account. ### Requirements - Consultant number and client number from your accountant - A revenue and an expense account per VAT rate - Ledger account length and start of the fiscal year - Contra accounts for the payment types in use - For direct upload, a DATEV account with import permission LimitsWhat the export does not do --------------------------- The road runs one way. Nuxbe hands postings to DATEV and reads nothing back. Whatever your accountant corrects in their books stays there and does not reappear in Nuxbe on its own. Only what has never been in a batch is exported. To send an invoice a second time it has to be taken out of the earlier export first. That prevents double postings, but it also means an accidental batch wants cleaning up deliberately. The wage type keys for the absence export come from your payroll system and are mapped by hand once. Nuxbe does not derive them and cannot verify them.
