Structure

A batch file is represented by a text file with variable sentence length. It is comprised of the following components:

  • Header data record—an obligatory text file line with fixed defined structure that must be located before the data records with invoices

  • Comment data record – optional lines that have informative character and each line must begin with a comment identifier. If a line begins with this identifier, the line is skipped and not processed. A comment identifier is a semi-colon character (hexadecimally 3B).

  • Purchased Invoice/Liability Invoice data record – optional lines with fixed defined structure. Each line represents one purchased invoice/liability invoice that the importer enters into the system.

Each data record is comprised of the individual attributes described below.

The attributes are separated by separators meaning that the position ("fixed") definition does not apply to the data record encoding.
