As a supplier of contracting authorities, you can also use various portals of the individual institutions and record the invoices manually. This only works if the number of invoices and the associated registration effort are limited. The advantage of such a solution is that it is free of charge. In the meantime, there are also other providers that offer such manually solutions under the keyword XRechnung Generator also for a fee. Regardless of which variant you choose, you should be careful to validate the XIns before you send them.
