DATEV File Export (Expenses)

What is DATEV File Export (Expenses)?

DATEV File Export turns approved Factorial expenses into a DATEV-compliant import file for your tax advisor. Approve expenses in Factorial, export the file, then download, extract and upload it into DATEV Unternehmen Online (DUO) via Belegtransfer — no re-typing. Amounts, dates, VAT, G/L accounts and receipts are already included, so your bookkeeper only needs to review and book.

Built for German legal entities, it requires Factorial's accounting setup (chart of accounts/ledger mapping) to assign G/L accounts, and covers regular expenses, mileage and per diems.

Benefits
