Xentral offers three export options for accounting: With the Financial Accounting Export, invoices, credit notes, and liabilities can be exported as CSV files with full account assignments. These data are based on project-specific or global tax settings and can be flexibly adjusted. Additionally, there is the option to export files specifically formatted for DATEV Unternehmen Online, while a third option provides a completely digital document transfer without local storage, secured via DATEV SmartLogin.
For connecting to DATEV, you have these options:
-
Manual Export: Export accounting data as CSV (DATEV format) or XML and upload to DATEV.
-
Automatic Export: Using the DATEV Rechnungsdatenservice 1.0, data is transferred directly to DATEV without additional steps.
These options save you time and ensure that your tax advisor always has access to the latest data.

For the initial setup of the DATEV data exchange, you need to enter important master data such as the consultant number, client number, and fiscal year into the system. These details are included in the export files and ensure the correct assignment of accounting information. Depending on your needs, these settings can be applied globally or project-specifically to tailor the export to your company's requirements.
