Approved hours become sevDesk invoices

Customers sync with sevDesk. Approved hours go there as a draft invoice per customer.

How it works

From your workday to sevDesk—no retyping.

You connect with an API key from sevDesk (Einstellungen › Benutzer). Half5 then imports your customers from sevDesk. Half5 checks sevDesk regularly for changes made there.

1
Connect sevDesk

Paste your API key and your customers come across.
2
Approve the week

A manager approves or rejects each person's submitted hours. Managers see registered hours only, never anyone's timeline.
3
Invoice

You create the invoice from an hours report. It appears in sevDesk as a draft.

What carries over

What the sevDesk integration handles.

From an hours report you create draft invoices: one per customer, containing only billable hours that haven't been invoiced yet. If your organisation uses approval, only approved hours qualify. The draft appears in sevDesk.

Customers in sync
Customers sync both ways with sevDesk. A customer you add in Half5 appears there, and one from sevDesk can be booked on in Half5.
VAT
Invoice lines carry a VAT rate that sevDesk accepts. Reverse-charge invoices are supported.
Sending
Send the invoice by email through sevDesk, or mark it as sent yourself.
Changes reach the draft
As long as the invoice is still a draft in sevDesk, changes you make in Half5 are passed on to it.
Hours are never billed twice
Hours on an invoice are locked to it. Delete a draft and you choose whether its hours become billable again.
