itdatex E-Invoice Intake

itdatex E-Invoice Intake is a WordPress plugin designed for businesses in Germany that must receive electronic invoices. It processes files locally within a WordPress installation to avoid sending sensitive supplier data such as amounts, VAT IDs, and bank details to third-party cloud services.

The plugin accepts XRechnung in UBL and UN/CEFACT/CII formats, ZUGFeRD hybrid PDF/A-3 files with embedded XML, and Factur-X. Upload occurs through drag-and-drop. It automatically detects the incoming format and parses core fields that include invoice number, dates, seller and buyer information, VAT ID, totals for net tax and gross amounts, line positions, and buyer reference known as Leitweg-ID. Validation runs against the embedded EN-16931 XML schema while also checking for required fields BT-1, BT-2, BT-27, and BT-112. Each processed file is stored directly in the WordPress environment.

The tool addresses regulatory requirements that took effect on 1 January 2025 under § 14 UStG, which mandate the ability to receive e-invoices. Further obligations to issue e-invoices are scheduled for 2027 or 2028. It therefore suits companies seeking to maintain data privacy during compliance rather than relying on external services.

itdatex E-Invoice Intake is delivered as a free plugin available through the official WordPress.org directory. No pricing details or licensing terms beyond its status as a WordPress plugin appear in the available information.
