Today, many businesses receive invoices in different digital formats.

Examples include:

  • PDF invoices
  • QR invoices
  • XRechnung
  • ZUGFeRD
  • email attachments
  • digital supplier invoices

Nevertheless, invoice data is still often processed manually.

This creates:

  • duplicate data entry
  • high administrative effort
  • errors in amounts or references
  • slow financial workflows

Why Modern Invoice Import Matters

A centralized digital invoice workflow provides:

  • faster processing
  • fewer manual tasks
  • better data quality
  • real-time financial data
  • more efficient accounting

The more automated invoice processing becomes, the more efficient financial and payment workflows operate.

The Typical Challenges

Many businesses regularly face situations such as:

  • invoices manually entered
  • missing payment data
  • incorrectly transferred QR references
  • documents stored multiple times
  • different invoice formats complicating workflows
  • information transferred between systems manually

As invoice volumes increase, complexity grows significantly.

The Saldio Approach

Saldio connects:

  • PDF invoices
  • QR invoices
  • XRechnung
  • ZUGFeRD

This keeps invoices centrally stored and automatically processed further.

1. Easily Import Invoices

Invoices can directly be imported via:

  • drag & drop
  • file upload

This centralizes document processing.

2. Automatically Process QR Invoices

4. Integration with Payments and Banking

Imported invoices remain directly connected to:

  • payments
  • banking
  • open items
  • accounting entries

This creates seamless financial workflows.

5. Integration with Accounting and Documents
