Note
The InvoiceXpress integration is only available in the Portuguese market.
InvoiceXpress is an online invoicing software that is approved by the Portuguese Tax and Customs Authority (PTA). When using the InvoiceXpress integration in Provet Cloud, the process for finalising an invoice is essentially the same as with the general Provet Cloud two-step invoice finalisation option, but invoices are sent to InvoiceXpress before they can be fully finalised in Provet Cloud. All invoice rows are sent to InvoiceXpress with the correct VAT codes and possible VAT exemption reasons.
The single-step invoice finalisation option is not available with the InvoiceXpress integration, and payments cannot be added before an invoice has been fully finalised.
The required, official documents related to invoices, such as the official invoice with the relevant QR code that must legally be present, are generated by InvoiceXpress. All functionality in Provet Cloud related to printing, sending, or using invoices or receipts uses these official documents.
Payments added to invoices are sent to InvoiceXpress with the correct payment type. An official receipt generated by InvoiceXpress is sent back to Provet Cloud. Refund payments are also sent to InvoiceXpress, and the invoice payment status between InvoiceXpress and Provet Cloud is synchronised.
It is also possible to create and finalise simplified invoices that do not include a client.
See how invoices are processed using the InvoiceXpress integration.
The Provet Cloud team will set up the InvoiceXpress integration in your system.
Note
The following settings are required for the integration to work as intended. We also recommend that you check our recommended financial settings before setting up financial integrations. The recommended settings will help you manage your accounting data and improve your financial reporting. However, note that in the Portuguese market, these recommended settings do not always apply. First see the following sections for the relevant automated settings and settings that cannot be edited after the InvoiceXpress integration has been activated.
-
Name: If the InvoiceXpress account is used on organisation-level (for all clinic locations under the organisation), make sure that your organisation’s name is correct. Note that the name cannot be modified after the integration has been activated for a clinic location.
-
Use global invoice numbering: This setting is recommended to avoid invoice number collision, especially for organisations that have clinic locations with and without the InvoiceXpress integration. Note that this setting cannot be changed after there is a finalised invoice in the Provet Cloud tenant.
The following settings are automatically set in Provet Cloud when the integration is activated and cannot be edited:

Note
Invoices must be finalised in chronological order.
-
You can finalise invoices according to the two-step finalisation process. The single-step option is not available with the InvoiceXpress integration. When you select Finalise invoice on the invoice page, Provet Cloud pre-finalises the invoice and sends it to InvoiceXpress to be finalised.
Note the following:
-
You cannot add payments to a draft invoice.
-
There cannot be item quantity with three or more decimal places on the invoice.
-
You cannot end a consultation or make any changes to the invoice while it is in the pre-finalised state.
-
If the invoice is finalised using the remove VAT option, the invoice will have a VAT exemption code. Note that it is not possible to declare more than one exemption code per invoice. If an invoice contains two items and each has 0% VAT of different exemption codes, you must select one exemption code for the invoice.
-
-
Once InvoiceXpress has finalised an invoice, the invoice becomes fully finalised in Provet Cloud. InvoiceXpress generates the official invoice PDF document for the invoice. You can print the invoice or send it by email from Provet Cloud.
-
You can add payments to the invoice after it has been finalised. Note that the payment date cannot be set in the future or before the invoice date.
-
When you add a payment to a finalised invoice in Provet Cloud and it has been synchronised to InvoiceXpress, an official PDF receipt is generated by InvoiceXpress. To print the official receipt, select the Print official receipt option from the Print button menu. You can also select Print unofficial receipt to print the normal Provet Cloud receipt.
-
Payments must be cancelled starting from the latest payment (the last payment shown on the invoice page). For example, if an invoice has payments A (1st payment) and B (2nd payment) and you want to cancel payment A, you must first cancel payment B before you can cancel payment A. You must then add payment B again to the invoice.
Note that third-party integrated payments must be refunded before creating a credit note. These include Provet Pay and integrated card payments. After a credit note has been finalised, payments on the original invoice and the credit note are adjusted accordingly so that both documents have the status 'Paid'. Note that this adjustment process may take some time. We recommend that you check the documents in both Provet Cloud and InvoiceXpress.
Note the following:
-
You cannot edit the client of a credit note. The client must be the same as on the original invoice.
-
It is currently not possible to create a credit note from an existing credit note.
-
Currently, no documents serving as evidence are created for refunded payments, only for cancelled payments.
-
Health plans
-
Insurance claims
-
Merging clients has a limitation: Information is merged from one client to the other, but the merged client that is archived in Provet Cloud is not archived in InvoiceXpress.
-
Invoicing fee. As an alternative, you can create and use a specific item for invoicing fees.
-
Cross-clinic location transfers
-
Handling and injection fee limit
-
Additional tax
-
Use the End of Day report on a daily basis for reconciliation (full 24-hour period).
-
Use the 'Invoices' report which can be exported to the Excel or CSV format to display more accurate amounts with 4 decimal places.
-
Use 'General Ledger' for monthly and annual reconciliation. The report can be exported to the Excel or CSV format to display more accurate amounts with 4 decimal places.
