Electronic reporting (e-reporting) and e-invoicing

What this screen prepares for the e-invoicing reform: till aggregates by day and rate, consistency with your closings, shop invoices as Factur-X — and where to set your VAT scheme and your accredited platform.

The e-invoicing reform sets two deadlines: receiving electronic invoices has been mandatory for all businesses since 1 September 2026; sending your own reports to an accredited platform will become mandatory from 1 September 2027. This screen prepares the files it will ask for, without sending anything anywhere yet.

The period to review.

Two dates. The official expected frequency depends on your VAT scheme — set separately, see below — but you can review any period. Nothing is calculated until you click Show the aggregates: the calculation reads your real sales again on every request, it is never done in advance.

What the screen prepares

Four blocks, once the period is shown:

  • Transaction data: your sales for the period, grouped by day, VAT rate and category (goods, services, outside French VAT, mixed) — downloadable as JSON.
  • Collections for service payments: kept apart, because their VAT is due on collection rather than on invoicing (unless you choose otherwise, see below) — downloadable as JSON.
  • The consistency check: the aggregates are cross-checked against your closings already posted for the period; a gap or a day without a closing is listed, day by day.
  • Shop invoices: those issued in the period, with the check of the mentions required by the reform and the download of each one as Factur-X.

Your VAT scheme and your accredited platform

These two settings live in Till settings, not on this screen:

  • The VAT scheme (normal actual monthly or quarterly, simplified, exemption) decides how often your data will need to be sent — every ten days, every month, or every two months.
  • The accredited platform (name, identifier) is the one through which you will one day send your reports. A salon that collects service payments can also tick the option so their VAT follows the goods scheme (due on invoicing, not on collection).

Frequently asked questions

Do I already need to send something to an accredited platform?

Not before 1 September 2027 for sending your own reports. Receiving electronic invoices, though, has been mandatory since 1 September 2026. This screen prepares the files; the actual sending goes through the platform you choose.

Where do I choose my accredited platform?

In Till settings, "Accredited platform" section: its name and identifier. Buiiild doesn't send it anything automatically.

Why are services kept apart from goods?

Because VAT on a service is due when payment is collected, not on invoicing as for a good — unless you tick the option for VAT on invoicing, which aligns the two.

What happens if the consistency check finds a gap?

Each gap is listed day by day, with the expected amount and the amount obtained, as well as days with no closing posted. See Till compliance and the certificate for the full integrity check.

What is a Factur-X?

The electronic invoice format expected by the reform: a PDF readable by anyone, with the invoicing data embedded so it can be read automatically by a platform. Each shop invoice for the period downloads in this format.
