Approved hours become Billomat invoices

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

How it works

From your workday to Billomat, without retyping.

You connect with an API key from Billomat (Einstellungen › Mitarbeiter › API-Zugriff (API-Schlüssel)). Also enter your account name from the web address: firma in https://firma.billomat.net. Half5 then imports your customers from Billomat. Half5 checks Billomat regularly for changes made there.

1
Connect Billomat

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 Billomat as a draft.

What moves across

What the Billomat integration takes care of.

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 Billomat.

Customers in sync
Customers sync both ways with Billomat. A customer you add in Half5 appears there, and one from Billomat can be booked on in Half5.
VAT
Invoice lines carry a VAT rate that Billomat accepts. Reverse-charge invoices are supported.
Sending
Send the invoice by email through Billomat, or mark it as sent yourself.
Changes reach the draft
As long as the invoice is still a draft in Billomat, 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.
