XRechnung: Germany's structured invoice format

XRechnung is a structured e-invoice format used in German public-sector contexts. The practical need is the same as elsewhere: users must be able to identify the file, read the important invoice fields, and understand what the format implies before they route it further.

What users usually need first

They need readable inspection, not raw XML only. That means invoice identity, supplier, buyer, totals, dates, and line items should be visible before stricter workflow checks begin.

How Tooltensor helps

Use the XRechnung Viewer for a readable first-pass summary and the detector when the file family is still unclear.
