Hello everyone,
I’m completely lost.

I’m using IFS Cloud 25R2 and I’m desperately trying to generate a UBL invoice in the French format.

First of all, I’ve correctly configured a customer for an E-INVOICE output.
Next, I created an OUT routing rule (first with a message_type = E-INVOICE_FR, then SEND_UBL_EINVOICE_LIFE_CYCLE_EVENT), an IFS_FINVOICE_TO_IFS_EINVOICE transformer, a routing address (functional, FinvoiceUBL_%TAG=INVOICE_ID%_%TAG=C06%.xml) and, finally, a sender).

When I send an invoice to this customer, an XML file containing the customer’s invoice data is indeed written to disk, but it does not conform to the template required by the French government.

Does anyone have a document setting out all the configuration steps required to successfully generate an invoice in the French UBL format? I’ve been searching through the documentation, but nothing I’ve tried has worked.

Thank you for your help.

Hi ​@Tonio ,

Have you referred to the France Country Solution which contains useful information on the setup?

https://docs.ifs.com/ifsclouddocs/25r2/lang/en/CountrySolutions/CountrySolution_pdf/FranceCountrySolution.pdf - 6 E-invoice & E-reporting

 

Also there are some on going issue corrections relevant to the template requirements as well.
 

 

Hope above are useful.

Best regards,

@Tonio 

I have tested up to version 25R2.6. At this stage, the UBL output generated by IFS is not compliant with the new France regulations.

It seems that the required fixes are included in version 25R2.7.

 

You need to develop a transformer or generate the UBL File outside of IFS.
