When setting up the integration with AFAS Profit, please take the following into account:

  • After connecting, you must set the control accounts for accounts receivable and accounts payable once if they differ from the default accounts 1300 and 1600.
    Go to Manage / Organisation / Accounting system connections, click ‘Edit’ for the relevant connection and open the tab ‘Accounting system connector’.

  • Only files with the following extensions are sent to AFAS:
    ​.pdf, .xls, .xlsx, .doc, .docx, .dxf, .mpp, .ods, .odt, .msg, .ppt, .pptx, .vsd, .vsdx, .xps, .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .gif, .bmp

  • Payment conditions of the type ‘Credit months after invoice date with postponement’ and ‘Payment instalments’ are not supported. All other payment condition types are supported.*

  • The VAT duty setting of purchase and sales relations is not retrieved from AFAS. During the first transaction in Zenvoices, the correct VAT code must be selected once.

  • An App Connector must be created in AFAS. Read more about it in this related article.

  • For each AFAS environment, a separate accounting software integration must be created in Zenvoices. One AFAS environment may contain multiple administrations.

  • AFAS uses different terminology than Zenvoices for the fields ‘invoice number’ and ‘transaction number’. See this related article for more information.

  • It is not possible to delete an IBAN from the relation master data; it can only be modified.

  • Via the administration settings, fixed values can be defined for data like:

    • Sales dossier item type

    • Purchase dossier item type

    • Dossier item subject value

      • Transaction description

      • File name

    • Link dossier items to projects

    • Financial period table

  • Apply payment discount from AFAS when exporting a transaction (see this related article)

For more information, consult the frequently asked questions per accounting software package.
