Work with E-Invoices in n8n with the E-Invoice Node

This community package provides an n8n node to work with electronic invoices (E-Invoices).

⚠️ Important note / Attribution
This package is a fork of the original project
geckse/n8n-nodes-einvoice.

The fork was created and published by BALZERTEC to improve and extend
support for German electronic invoices, especially regarding
XRechnung, ZUGFeRD and EN 16931 compliance.

All credit for the original idea and implementation goes to geckse.
This fork focuses on adapting and stabilizing the processing of German
invoice standards.

About the Original Project

The original node was created by geckse.

Beside building automations, geckse also created a SaaS that automates bank
accounts and makes them accessible for workflow automation.
