# Bookkeeping integrations

> Hand open invoices from your bookkeeping software straight to paywise — no export, no retyping

paywise reads open invoices directly from your bookkeeping, invoicing or payment
software. You pick the unpaid invoices from a list, check the debtor data and submit
the order. Invoice number, amount, customer data and the invoice PDF come along
automatically.

<Note>
  paywise **reads** from your system and never writes back. No invoice in your software
  is changed, cancelled or marked as paid.
</Note>

## How it works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Set up the connection">
    You connect your system once at
    [app.paywise.de/connect/](https://app.paywise.de/connect/). Depending on the
    provider you sign in there, store an API key, or install the paywise extension in
    your provider's marketplace.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick the invoices">
    paywise lists your open invoices live from the connected system — with invoice
    number, recipient, invoice date, due date, total and **open amount**. The open
    amount is what paywise collects.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check the data">
    The debtor's name and address are taken from your system. Where the provider
    supplies an invoice PDF, paywise attaches it automatically. The provider page
    explains which missing details or documents can be completed in the paywise
    draft and when you need to correct the source system instead.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Send the order">
    Answer the legal questions, accept the terms and submit. From here the case is a
    paywise matter — nothing further happens in your software.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What applies to every integration

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Which invoice source paywise uses">
    The invoice picker uses **one** active import source at a time. Classic
    bookkeeping integrations and the DATEV import are generally alternatives.
    Deactivate an active DATEV import or disconnect the previous classic integration
    before switching.

    **easyVerein is an exception.** It is a separate collection-import source and
    can remain active alongside a bookkeeping or DATEV connection. When easyVerein
    is connected, the invoice picker uses easyVerein.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="paywise never writes back">
    Every integration is read-only. Your invoice and bookkeeping records stay
    unchanged. Payments that reach you after the handover still need to be reported
    to paywise by you.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Invoices already submitted">
    An invoice already handed to paywise is marked *Eingereicht* (submitted) in the
    picker and cannot be submitted twice.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Disconnecting">
    You can disconnect any integration yourself at any time. Collection orders you
    already submitted are unaffected — they are paywise cases and continue to be
    processed. Further invoice reading stops. If the integration also supplies the
    Mahnservice, running dunning processes are stopped or paused because paywise can
    no longer verify the current invoice status.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Mahnservice">
    Five integrations feed the **paywise Mahnservice** (pre-collection dunning) as
    well as the collection handover: **Lexware Office**, **sevdesk**, **WISO
    MeinBüro**, **orgaMAX** and **Stripe**. paywise then fetches your open invoices
    continuously and sends reminders on your behalf before a case becomes a
    collection matter. Details are on each integration's page.

    Every other integration is built for the handover only: you pick the invoices
    yourself and submit them for collection.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Partial payments">
    Where your system supplies partial payments, paywise takes the amount actually
    outstanding rather than the full invoice total. Each integration page says
    whether partial payments are supplied.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>
