How to import invoices from FatturaPA XML

If you are moving from another tool or want to load into Flinvo the invoice history downloaded from the Italian Revenue Agency, you can import all XML files in one go.

What you can import

• Individual XML files in FPR12 format (FatturaPA standard).
• ZIP archives containing multiple XMLs: Flinvo extracts them automatically.
• Issued invoices (outbound). Purchase invoices will land in the Expenses section in a future update.

The steps

1. 1Go to Invoices and open the Import → From XML menu.
2. 2Drag XML files or the ZIP into the upload area.
3. 3Review the preview: Flinvo shows client, number, date and total for each detected invoice.
4. 4If a client is not on file, enable the Create missing clients option to add them on the fly.
5. 5Confirm the import.

How deduplication works

Flinvo identifies duplicate invoices by the (user, invoice number) pair. Re-importing the same file does not create a duplicate: the existing invoice is simply skipped and we report it in the final summary.
