Net Invoices – Feature Overview

Net Invoices – Feature Overview

The problem

Invoices to EU customers, export shipments, or small business owners require tax-exempt invoices. Manually changing the VAT rate to 0% and providing the correct justification takes time and carries a risk of errors—incorrect tax information can be costly.

The Solution

CATAMA automatically generates legally compliant net invoices with a single click. The system identifies tax-exempt customers and offers to automatically adjust the invoice.

Here's how it works

Option 1:VAT dropdown → Select “0% (Net)” → The receipt is calculated without tax
Option 2:Select tax-exempt customers → The system automatically asks: “Create document without VAT?” → Confirm → Done!
Option 3: Print a net invoice without adjusting the tax rate (ideal when combined with a security deposit invoice)
The system ensures:
  • Automatic calculation of the net price for all items
  • Correct notice text depending on the tax basis (EU delivery, export, §19 UStG)
  • Display of VAT ID for EU customers
  • Legally compliant documentation

The Benefits

Compliant with the law:Automatic disclosure texts in accordance with the UStG
Error-free:No incorrect tax calculations
Saves time:No need for manual recalculation
Smart:Automatically identifies tax-exempt customers

Applications

  • EU shipments (intra-EU)
  • Export transactions (third countries)
  • Small business owner (Section 19 of the German Value-Added Tax Act)
  • Reverse-charge cases
  • Tax-exempt organizations
Important: Documentation requirements (VAT ID verification, proof of export) remain in effect—CATAMA helps you ensure your documentation is in order!
