Export a UBL 2.1 XML File.
How to export a finalized invoice or credit note as a UBL 2.1 XML file for structured data exchange.
Export a UBL 2.1 XML File
For: business owners and bookkeepers who need structured invoice data for accounting systems or regulatory compliance. What you need: a finalized invoice or credit note.
1. Open the document
Go to Sales > Invoices (or Credit Notes) and open the finalized document you want to export.
2. Click Export XML
On the document detail page, click Export XML. InvoiceScript generates a UBL 2.1 XML file and downloads it to your computer.
What the XML contains
The export includes:
- Supplier (your company) and buyer (customer) details
- Invoice number, dates, and currency
- Line items with descriptions, quantities, prices, and tax information
- Tax categories (S for standard, Z for zero-rate, AE for reverse charge, E for exempt)
- Payment means with IBAN and BIC when present
- For credit notes: billing references to the original invoice
What it does not do
This is a local file export. InvoiceScript does not send the XML over the Peppol network, submit it to a government portal, or validate it against a specific national mandate.
The export uses EN 16931-compatible data mapping, which covers the core European standard. Whether this satisfies your specific jurisdiction's requirements depends on your local regulations. Talk to your accountant or tax advisor.
