Installation

This module depends on base_ebill_payment_contract which is located on OCA/account_invoicing, so this repository must also be present on the system. This base_ebill_payment_contract module depends on account_invoice_transmit_method which will also be installed.

Configuration

Create a service

To create a service you need to be registred with SIXT Paynet service. Then the configuration of the service can be done in Accounting - Configuration - Payments - Paynet Service

Configure the customers

A customer that wants to receive his invoices through Paynet will also need to register with the service. In Flectra to enable the sending of invoices for a specific customer through Paynet, the transmit method must be set accordingly for that customer. This is done on the customer form in the tab Sales & Purchases section Sales.

Configure the contracts

The contracts specific to e-billing are located in Accounting - Customers - eBill Payment Contract Although the Paynet system allows for automatic exchange of contract registration and status changes, this automation is not yet implemented. To be active a contract needs to be in the state Open and it’s start/end dates to be valid.

Usage

To use this module, you need to:

1. Configure the service, customers and contracts as described in the CONFIGURATION section.
2. Create an invoice for a customer with an open Paynet contract.
3. Validate the invoice, and it will be send to the service.

Known issues / Roadmap

To Do

• The B2C invoice generated is only a draft and not tested, yet.
• Invoice in currency other than CHF will not be generated correctly.
• Implementation of the automatic registration of contracts, is not implemented and probably not supported by the DWS

Improvements

• On the contract view the list of messages for that contract could be visible.
• When an error is returned by the service it should be clearer where it is located in the payload send.
• In the chatter add a link to the job when it fails

Refactoring

The dependence on delivery module could be extracted in a glue module. For v14 or v15 consider refactoring on top of EDI framework
