What a branch does and does not do to an e-invoice

You can say what the e-invoice pipeline reads from a branch record, what it copies from the document…

A place on the document

Step 1 — See a branch as a place written on the document

You will know what kind of thing a branch is to the pipeline.

Step 2 — Learn the one branch setting that acts

You will know the whole of the branch's e-invoice configuration.

What this step names
  1. When a document is finalised
  2. The platform asks whether the document is marked skip
  3. Whether its branch is
  4. Whether its customer is; any yes and the document never enters the…
  5. With no queue row
  6. No pool row

Present by copy, absent by design

Step 3 — Know where the branch appears, and where it does not

You can predict whether a branch will be on a finished e-invoice before you open it.

Step 4 — Stop configuring the fields the pipeline never reads

Three branch fields will leave your checklist.

Making the branch visible where it matters

Step 5 — Put the branch on the customer's PDF the one way that works

You will know how a branch gets onto the copy a customer holds.

Step 6 — Check the new branch in thirty seconds

The checklist line is done.

What you do
  1. Open the branch record and confirm the only e-invoice control on it, Skip E-Invoice…
  2. Open any consolidated e-invoice from the common run and read the blank branch column…
