DATEV handover for your business software

Transfer documents and structured invoice or accounting data from one source system to the appropriate DATEV data service.

For: Companies, shop operators and software providers that manually hand data to accounting

THE IMPLEMENTATION GOAL

A result you can verify.

The agreed example data reaches the correct client with its document references; missing or rejected transfers are visible.

YOUR STARTING POINT

Three packages. A clear scope.

Choose the step you need. An existing assessment can provide the basis for implementation.

01

Assessment & roadmap

€499.00 one-off

One source system, one target DATEV client and up to five example records; selection of a suitable handover method.

  • Technical review based on the documentation you provide
  • Written findings with prioritised next steps and clearly identified open questions
  • One online follow-up session to discuss the results

Fixed price for the stated assessment scope, including 19% VAT. Implementation and third-party fees are separate. An enquiry does not place an order.

What we need to get started

  • Source system, required data and existing DATEV products
  • A subject contact in accounting or the tax practice, plus anonymised examples

A description is enough for your first enquiry. We will then agree suitable ways to exchange files and arrange access.

What the scope covers

DATEV data services have different usage and integration requirements. Partner status, licences and API approval are not assumed. The responsible specialist team determines account assignment and tax treatment.

We check the package against your project. Your enquiry is non-binding; commissioning and scheduling are agreed afterwards.

UNDERSTAND THE TOPIC

Connecting DATEV: choose the data service before the interface.

DATEV distinguishes several data services. A document image service transfers documents, while other services handle structured invoice or accounting data. The appropriate handover depends on what the source system provides and where further processing will happen.
