Electronic Notas Fiscais Issuing Flow
The flow for creating electronic notas fiscais is as follows:
1 Complete the required setup for electronic notas fiscais. See Setting Up Electronic Notas Fiscais.
2 Create a sales order. See User Guide: QAD Sales for more information on sales orders and shipping.
3 Create a shipment record or notice of receipt. You record specific electronic nota fiscal data in this step.
4 Print the shipper.
5 Confirm the shipper. You post the invoice and the system generates the XML file containing the nota fiscal data as part of this step. The XML file is signed using the certificate installed.
6 If you are using the automatic process, the system requests authorization from SEFAZ as part of the shipper confirm process.
If you are using the manual process, you must run Authorization Receipt separately to seek authorization from SEFAZ. See Obtaining SEFAZ Authorization Manually.
The file undergoes a validation process in SEFAZ. The system downloads a new XML file containing the receipt received from SEFAZ and returns SEFAZ validation. If the electronic nota fiscal has been authorized, SEFAZ returns the authorization protocol. If the file is rejected, the system displays notification of this.
7 If the electronic nota fiscal is authorized, you can print the DANFE. If you are using the automatic process, the system prints the DANFE as part of the shipper confirm process after authorization is received from SEFAZ.
If you are using the manual process, you must run DANFE Print to print the DANFE. See Printing the DANFE.
8 Send the XML file with the encapsulated protocol and electronic nota fiscal data to customers. See Sending the Nota Fiscal to the Customer.
