paywise for WISO MeinBüro

WISO MeinBüro
Take open invoices from WISO MeinBüro Web straight into paywise — no export, no intermediate step. The connection starts in the WISO MeinBüro marketplace: you install the paywise extension there and are returned to paywise automatically.
paywise reads from WISO MeinBüro and never writes back. Nothing in your bookkeeping is changed, cancelled or marked as paid.

Before you start

Two prerequisites:
  • You need the administrator role in paywise for the target company.
  • No active DATEV import may exist for that company. Deactivate it under DATEV Einstellungen → Gefahrenzone → Integration deaktivieren before connecting WISO MeinBüro.
Plus: a WISO MeinBüro Web account with at least one open invoice.
You do not need a paywise account in advance. If you arrive from the MeinBüro marketplace without one, paywise walks you through registration and takes your company details from MeinBüro.

What paywise reads

The integration is read-only.

1. Connected in four steps

1

Open the marketplace

Sign in to WISO MeinBüro Web and open the marketplace.
2

Install paywise

Find the „paywise“ extension and install it in your account.
3

Open the extension

Open the installed extension — you land back in paywise automatically.
4

Confirm the connection

Confirm your MeinBüro account, the target company in paywise and the licence terms, then choose Verbindung herstellen (establish connection).Only companies where you are an administrator are shown. If the MeinBüro account displayed is not yours, cancel and open the paywise extension in WISO MeinBüro again.
After confirmation the page shows Verbunden mit your account, Status: Aktiv, the MeinBüro-Kontoadresse and the date under Eingerichtet am.
If the company is already connected to a MeinBüro account, paywise warns you on confirmation: the new connection replaces the existing one. Invoices are then read only from the newly confirmed account.

2. Submit invoices for collection

1

Open the invoice picker

On the MeinBüro page in paywise, choose Rechnungen einreichen.
2

Pick the invoices

paywise lists your open invoices live from MeinBüro — with invoice number, customer, invoice date, due date, total and open amount.The due date comes straight from MeinBüro; paywise calculates nothing here. The open amount accounts for assigned payments.
3

Check the debtor data

Name and address come from the MeinBüro customer, the invoice PDF is attached automatically. Review and correct anything missing.
4

Review the reminders

Reminders you sent for the invoice in MeinBüro are imported automatically with date and dunning level. Scheduled but not-yet-sent reminders are deliberately not imported. If you dunned outside MeinBüro, add that by hand here.
5

Send the order

Confirm how collection should start, answer the legal questions, accept the terms and choose Auftrag absenden.

Invoices that cannot be submitted

paywise deliberately imports only document types whose outstanding amount is unambiguous:
  • Only invoices and closing invoices can be submitted.
  • Deposit invoices are excluded. A closing invoice’s totals are already net of the deposits — importing both would collect the same amount twice.
  • Cancellation documents and recurring invoices are excluded. Recurring receivables therefore cannot be submitted through this integration.
  • Cancelled invoices do not appear, even though MeinBüro leaves the outstanding amount on them.
  • Invoices with no outstanding amount.
  • Incomplete recipient details. paywise imports the invoice as an editable draft. Complete the name and address in paywise before submitting the order.
  • Already submitted invoices are shown as Eingereicht.

Mahnservice: importing invoices continuously

This integration feeds more than the one-off collection handover — it can also supply the paywise Mahnservice, the pre-collection dunning service. paywise then fetches your open invoices regularly and sends payment reminders on your behalf, before a case becomes a collection matter. You set the Mahnservice up at app.paywise.de/mahnservice/.

Prerequisites

All of the following must be in place before the recurring sync starts:
  • An active WISO MeinBüro connection with a valid connection.
  • A Mahnservice subscription and the accepted Mahnservice terms.
  • A decided import scope — you determine once which invoices should be taken over.
  • Your confirmation that you have switched off dunning in WISO MeinBüro. The Mahnservice does not start without it.

What paywise checks before every reminder

1

Regular sync

paywise fetches your open invoices from WISO MeinBüro at fixed intervals. Newly opened invoices are picked up automatically.
2

Status check immediately before sending

Right before a reminder goes out, paywise queries the current invoice status in WISO MeinBüro once more. If the invoice has been paid or cancelled in the meantime, no reminder is sent.
3

When in doubt, nothing is sent

If the status cannot be established beyond doubt — because WISO MeinBüro is temporarily unreachable, for instance — paywise holds the reminder back. That is deliberate: a reminder sent late is better than one sent to somebody who has already paid.
Payments paywise finds in WISO MeinBüro during a sync end the dunning process automatically.
Switch off dunning in WISO MeinBüro before starting the Mahnservice. Otherwise you and paywise dun the same invoice in parallel. paywise therefore asks for this confirmation explicitly and only starts sending afterwards. You can revoke it at any time — sending then stops immediately.
Disconnecting also pauses this company’s running dunning processes.

3. Disconnect

On the MeinBüro page, choose Verbindung trennen and confirm. paywise then stops reading invoices from your MeinBüro account. Orders you already submitted are unaffected.
Also uninstall the paywise extension in WISO MeinBüro. Otherwise, opening the extension again re-establishes the connection.
Only administrators of your company can disconnect.

Reconnecting

No reinstallation is needed as long as the extension is still installed in MeinBüro:
1

Open the extension

Open the paywise extension in WISO MeinBüro Web — you land back in paywise automatically.
2

Confirm again

Confirm your MeinBüro account, the target company and the licence terms again.

Troubleshooting

The confirmation page is valid only directly after opening the paywise extension in WISO MeinBüro. Open the extension there again.
Same thing: open the paywise extension in WISO MeinBüro again — a new request is created.
A connection can only be established by an administrator. Contact the administrator of your paywise company.
The account is attached to another paywise account. Sign in there, disconnect first, then try again.
Invoices are then no longer imported; orders already submitted are unaffected. Open the paywise extension in MeinBüro again and confirm the connection once more.
Recurring invoices are excluded from import. Submit that case through the normal paywise order wizard instead.
