According to the new legislation, changes are required:

• Maintenance of issued invoices registers.
• Automatic submitting xml file with issued invoices to Online Invoicing System and processing interaction with service (machine-machine interface without any human intervention within the system.
• Invoice data should be embedded in the XML file encoded to BASE64 format.

To meet these new legislation requirements in Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, Enterprise edition there was updated and set up functionality of Electronic message items. This functionality lets users to:

• Set up specific Online invoicing system web-services that should be used to automatically transmit data directly to the Online invoicing system
• Maintain a register of invoices to support the process of transmission and receiving a response on Issued invoices.
• Automatically generate and send XML reports to the Online invoicing system in the required formats.
• Automatically receive and interpret responses from the Online invoicing system.
• Store and review all the transmitted and received XML reports.

Also the functionality for storing sensitive data was updated. This functionality allows to set up technical user login, password, signature and replacement keys (using Key Vault or local storing in the Online invoicing system parameters).

This guidance describes how to set up and use Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, Enterprise edition to interact with the Online Invoicing system according to the new legal requirements.

In Generate EM action set up Number of message items per export field (quantity of issued invoices, which will be sent in one package to the Online invoicing system) and, if there are issued invoices in one package with huge number of lines, you may set GZIP in the Items attachments compression type, and the system will compress all invoices in a package before submitting to Online invoicing system.

Note. Don’t change value in the Attach files from output archive to items.

Batch for automatic execution machine-machine interface setup

To set up batches, open Tax > setup > Electronic messages > Electronic message processing and set up batch (click Create batch button in the Batch FastTab).

Financial reasons setup

In most cases, the system specifies invoice operation automatically:

• Create operation - if there is no any reference to the original invoice in the invoice
• Modify operation - if here is any reference to the original invoice in the invoice

But if a user wants an invoice should be submitted to the Online invoicing system with Storno operation, then a Financial reason with Storno operation should be selected in the invoice before posting. 

OR if a corrective invoice has not any reference to original invoice (for example, corrective invoice includes only lines which were absent in the original invoice), the user should select a financial reason with Modify operation.

To set up financial reasons, open Organization administration > Setup > Financial reasons.

Number sequences setup

To set up number sequences for Electronic messages and Electronic message item, open Tax > Setup > Parameters > General ledger parameters.

Electronic message item form is used for interacting with Online invoicing system.  This form contains list of document items, which have reference to the original documents (issued invoices/ project invoice) and have different state of communication with Online invoicing system.  State of communication is defined with Message item and Message status. Electronic message (EM) items may have different statuses at the same time.

To open this form, go to Tax > Inquiries and reports > Electronic messages > Electronic message items:

Actions, Message item and Message statuses

The message item status and EM status are changed when the system (Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations) is competing the one of operations:

Operation sequence	Operation	Description	EM item status (result)	EM status (result)
1	Create EM items	Generates electronic message items on posted issued invoices and on base of settings filters.	Created
2	Evaluate EM items	Calculates additional field values (invoice operation, reference to the original invoice, last line number) for electronic message items. It is preliminary operation before creation EM	Evaluated
3	Generate EM	Creates invoice package for submitting invoices to the Online invoicing system and invoice data xml-file	Included in message	Generated
4	Generate token request	Creates exchange token xml file for submitting to the Online invoicing system.	In preprocessing	Token request generated
5	Submit token request	Submits xml file, created by previous operation.	In preprocessing	Token request submitted/ Error sending token request
6	Import token response	Imports and analyses response from the Online invoicing system and store received token in the Electronic message additional field.	In preprocessing	Token response received
7	Generate invoice request	Creates manage invoice request xml-file (encode invoices, inserts token in the request etc)	Included in invoice request	Invoice request generated
8	Submit invoice request	Submits xml file, created by previous operation.	Sent	Invoice request/ Error sending invoice request
9	Import invoice response	Imports and analyses response from the Online invoicing system and store received transaction Id in the Electronic message additional field.	Sent	Transaction Id received
10	Generate status request	Creates status request xml-file	Pending status response	Status request generated
11	Submit status request	Submits xml file, created by previous operation.	Pending status response	Invoice status request submitted/ Error sending status request
12	Import status response	Imports and analyses response from the Online invoicing system. If status of EM item is equal to Received (invoices are received by Online invoicing system) or Processing (invoices are processing by Online invoicing system), the system proceeds to send status request.	Received Processing Accepted/ Rejected	In process In process Processed

All these operations may be run either in automatic mode or manually. In the Next action field the system displays, what action should be executed on the next step.

There are two additional EM item statuses, which are absent in the above table: Excluded and Manual editing.

Excluded status is set automatically, when executing Create EM items action and invoice date less than date of reporting period. The system does not submit invoices with this status  to the Online invoicing system. A user may change this status manually, if click Update status button. Current setting of Exclude EM items action allows to change message item status from Evaluated to Excluded.

Note. The system searches reference to the original invoice in the Electronic message items. Therefore it is desirable to add invoices for half- or one year before 07/01/2018 in order to the system could set reference to the original invoice automatically. 

Also system allows to change message item status from Rejected to Created in order to send the message item to the Online invoicing system.  

Message item Additional fields

Additional fields are related with every Message item and the system fills in them automatically when executing actions.

Additional field	Description
Operation	Create, Modify, STORNO. The system specifies these operations when executing Evaluation action.  These operations may be defined automatically (Create – if there is no reference to any original invoice, Modify – if there is reference to the original invoice or Modify operation may selected from the financial reason, which related with invoice and has operation Modify, STORNO – if there is financial reason, which related with invoice and has operation STORNO)
Original invoice item	If Operation is equal to Modify or STORNO, this field should be filled in. If the system could not fill in this field, it sets Message item status to Manual editing and a user should fill in this field manually.
Index	Number of invoice in the invoice package. This field is filled in automatically when executing Generate invoice request action.
Last line reference number	Create operation – last number is equal to invoice line quantity Modify/ STORNO operation- last number is equal to invoice line quantity + original invoice line quantity + summary quantity lines of all invoices, referred to the same original register. This field is filled in automatically when executing Evaluation action.
