Your Zenvoices environment is available immediately after activation. But how do you ensure everything is configured correctly so your team can start processing invoices right away? Use this checklist to ensure nothing is overlooked and your environment is optimally set up.


Required

1. Connect your accounting software

Before you can process invoices, you must connect your accounting software:

  • Add the accounting software integration. See: Setting up an accounting software integration

  • Add one or more administrations. See: Adding an administration

  • Synchronise master data. See: Synchronising master data

Please note:

Are you using one of the following accounting packages?

e-Boekhouden.nl, InformerOnline, King ERP, SAP Business One, SnelStart, Exact Globe, Visma eAccounting, Reeleezee

Create a separate integration per administration. The administration will be added immediately.

Other accounting software?

Add multiple administrations at once using the bulk functionality.

👉 Tip: After completing these steps, always process a test booking first.
Watch the instructional video: Processing a test booking.


2. Configure the basic settings

Review administration settings:

  • Go to: Manage > Environment > Administrations and click Edit.

  • Complete your own company details per administration to prevent recognition of your own company data. Want to know more? Watch this video.

  • Set the preferred journal for email submissions, preferably the Purchase journal.


3. Create users and assign permissions

  • Add additional users. See: Adding users

  • Assign the appropriate roles and permissions per user


Optional

4. Activate additional modules

Activate additional modules if required. See: Activating additional modules.


Tips

5. Optimise and automate

Automate journal assignment

  • Configure destination allocation rules to automatically select the correct journal when it differs from the preferred journal.

Automatically process documents

  • Configure import rules to automatically read documents when journal allocation works correctly.

  • Add rules to automatically delete or move documents so that only documents requiring splitting or merging remain.
    See: Automating Upload & Read.


6. Analyse and improve performance

  • Use the Performance Dashboard to monitor your automation rate and further optimise your invoice processing workflow.

  • See also: Increasing automation rate.


7. Expand your knowledge

  • Attend our webinars for additional tips and best practices.
