ZUGFeRD
The ZUGFeRD plugin provides a way to enrich German PDF invoices with data specific to the
invoice. This is done by embedding the data in a standardized XML format within the PDF
itself.
ZUGFeRD is an acronym for Zentraler User Guide des Forums elektronische Rechnungen
Deutschland. In English this translates to Central User Guidelines of the Forum for Electronic
Billing in Germany.
The ZUGFeRD standard describes three different levels of embedded information. The
“BASIC” profile is the lowest level, and is the level supported by the Workflow plugin. It holds
structured data which is enough to cater for most requirements of the Federal Ministries and
industries (such as the software and taxation sectors) participating in the standard.
For more information, please see the ZUGFeRD website: https://www.ferd-
net.de/zugferd/definition/index.html.
Licensing
The ZUGFeRD plugin is bound to the Connect Workflow Imaging license.
Workflow Imaging is an add-on license bundle for Connect Workflow that includes the Image
and Fax plugins.
Without a valid Imaging license, the plugin will create a valid ZUGFeRD PDF file at design time
and in debug mode, but will not apply ZUGFeRD data to the PDF in runtime/production mode.
An unlicensed plugin will simply pass through any incoming PDF files untouched.
