Read here what the points of attention and supported functionalities are for an integration with AFAS SB.

Please note: This integration is only available as a beta version. Please contact support via support@zenvoices.com.

Before you can create the connection with AFAS SB, the Zenvoices app must first be added in AFAS SB.

You can do this through the App Center in AFAS SB. After the Zenvoices app has been added there, the connection with Zenvoices can be set up.

Always make sure that the Zenvoices app is activated in the AFAS SB App Center before starting the connection process.

When integrating with AFAS SB, please take the following into account:

  • Only Dutch administrations are supported. Foreign bookings can be processed, but only in euros.

  • Only files with the following extensions are sent to AFAS SB:
    .pdf, .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .tif, .tiff, .xls, .xlsx, .doc, .docx and .zip.

  • If both the purchase and sales journal are used in Zenvoices, organisations from AFAS SB will be created in Zenvoices as both creditors and debtors.

  • The AFAS SB API does not support updating a relation’s payment terms or general ledger account from Zenvoices to AFAS SB.

  • For a relation, the fields Address and IBAN must be completed in the master data in order to process an invoice. If one of these fields is changed in Zenvoices, AFAS SB adds it as an additional address/bank account, resulting in multiple addresses and/or IBANs linked to the same relation.

  • In addition to Organisations, AFAS SB also supports Unknown relations:
    ‘Unknown customer’ and ‘Unknown supplier’. Zenvoices only supports the unknown customer, because the AFAS SB API does not accept bookings with an unknown supplier (as no bank account is available).

  • VAT is handled by AFAS SB. In Zenvoices you can only select:
    Low, High or Zero VAT. For reverse-charged VAT, the options High reverse-charged and Low reverse-charged are available.

  • Payment terms are only supported in the format “X days”, where X represents the number of days.

  • The selected payment term is only sent to AFAS SB for sales bookings.
    This is not supported for purchase bookings. For purchase bookings, AFAS SB determines the payment term based on the creditor settings.

  • Sales invoices can be viewed in AFAS SB under Sales journal entries.

Please consult the frequently asked questions per accounting package for more information.
