What is DATEV-Belegbilderservice Rechnungswesen?
The DATEV-Belegbilderservice Rechnungswesen allows you to send your receipts and accounting documents directly to DATEV Unternehmen Online (DUO) — the platform your tax advisor uses to manage your bookkeeping. This direct connection helps streamline your accounting process by making documents immediately available for review and processing by your advisor.
To use this service, your tax advisor must enable access to DUO for your business. Additionally, you need to connect your Vivid account with DATEV for the integration to work smoothly.
Automatically Sync Invoices and Documents from Vivid to DATEV
With your Vivid account, you can easily set up automatic exports of your invoices and any documents attached in the Bookkeeping tab directly to DATEV Unternehmen Online. Just a heads-up: this feature isn’t available for companies using the Free Start tariff.
With automation enabled, your receipts and bookkeeping documents are regularly exported to DATEV using the Belegbilderservice Rechnungswesen. This ensures your tax advisor always has up-to-date access to your financial data — no extra clicks required.
To get started:
Obtain your tax advisor’s advisor number (Beraternummer) and client number (Mandantennummer).
Set up and activate DATEV SmartLogin on your smartphone (your advisor can assist you).
To connect your Vivid Business account with DATEV, follow these steps:
Open the Web Interface: Go to the Bookkeeping section via the side menu.
Start the Export Process: Click Export in the top-right corner, then select Auto Export to DATEV.
Enter Required Details: Fill in your Advisor Number, Client Number, and select the export start date. If you don’t have these details, please contact your DATEV advisor.
Log In to DATEV: You’ll be redirected to DATEV-Benutzerkonto. Enter your DATEV login credentials.
Grant Access: Click "I Agree" to authorize the connection. You’ll be redirected back to your Vivid Business account.
That’s it! Your Bookkeeping data will now be automatically exported to DATEV.
