Introduction
API accounting:dxso-jobs in brief
Using the API "accounting:dxso-jobs", document images and structured invoice and cash data are transferred from web applications to the relevant applications within DATEV Unternehmen online. The data is prepared in the format of DATEV XML-Schnittstelle online in version 4.0 or above.
Using the structured data, document items are generated for Belege online (editing form “erweitert” (extended)) or for Rechnungseingangsbuch online, Rechnungsausgangsbuch online, and/or Kassenbuch online in DATEV Unternehmen online. The digital documents are stored in Belege online and are then automatically associated with the corresponding document items. When providing the document items from Belege online (editing form “extended”) or from the relevant Geschäftsbuch online, suggested entries will be generated for the DATEV Rechnungswesen-Programm.
The API can only be used by Web applications with a data center.
