Factur-X Python library
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
Factur-X is the e-invoicing standard for France and Germany. The Factur-X specifications are available on the `FNFE-MPE website <http://fnfe-mpe.org/factur-x/>`_.
|
|
|
|
The main feature of this Python library is to generate Factur-X invoices from a regular PDF invoice and a Factur-X compliant XML file.
|
|
|
|
This lib provides additionnal features such as:
|
|
|
|
* extract the Factur-X XML file from a Factur-X PDF invoice,
|
|
* check a Factur-X XML file against the official XML Schema Definition.
|
|
|
|
Some of the features provided by this lib also work for the ZUGFeRD e-invoicing standard (the ancestor of the Factur-X standard).
