Solution

The QR invoice provides basically the same features as the BVR payment slip. The only difference resides in the format of the document (used by your customers to pay their orders) and the format of the payment file received from the bank (which informs you about the payments successfully performed by your customers).

Scope

The QR invoice may be used for:

1. Reservation orders: The initial order is a reservation order and will be converted to a sales order during the import of the payment file. The tickets will only be available after payment.
2. Sales orders:The initial order has been paid by pending account with follow-up, using one or more installments. Each import of a payment file will (usually) pay one installment. As for any payment by pending account, the tickets are available right after order closure, i.e. before the "real" payment.

Payment methods

The QR payment process uses exactly the same payment methods as the BVR payment. You don't have to create new ones.

• A payment method by pending account and follow-up, with a default BVR/QR payment method for each installment. This payment method is only necessary for case 2 above.
• A BVR/QR payment method used when the payment file received from the bank is being imported.

QR invoice

An example of a QR invoice is given below.

This example comes from a test institution located in France. In practice, this payment method is only available for our Swiss customers.

Payment file provided by the bank

The QR invoicing is based on the camt.054 format (XML) instead of the old V11 format (CSV) that was used for BVR payments. The set-up of the import function is described in the Getting started section below.

Getting started

Set-up to be performed by the service team

Ask the service team to enable the QR invoice feature. The service team will perform following actions:

• Set the feature flag PRINTING_SWISS_QR_CODE_ON_BVR
  
• Set the following parameters concerning the QR code in the document parameter section (URL: https://secutix_customer.pos.secutix.com/tnpsb/document/listDocumentParameter.htm, where secutix_customer matches the institution code)
  
  • Set BVR_BARCODE_POS_X to 68
  • Set BVR_BARCODE_POS_Y to 43
  • Set BVR_BARCODE_POS_SIZE to 46

Documents

Administrative values

The QR invoice uses a separate IBAN, called QR-IBAN. This number has to be stored in the corresponding administrative number as shown below. Please contact your bank if you don't have a QR-IBAN.

Document type

Create a new document type belonging to document class Summary with ISR. The document must have following characteristics:

Document template

A document template is provided for each language supported by the QR invoice:

• fr: French
• en: English
• de: German
• it: Italian

These templates are examples that we recommend you to use to build your own customised document template.

Import the payment file

Create a new interface of type Payment integration and subtype BVR import:

Set the parameters highlighted in figure below. Of course, you are free to name the sales channel, point of sales and payment method code as you want.

Create a manual schedule to launch the function Process external payments and select the file to upload (i.e. the payment file received from the bank).
