Overview

This node integrates with the Xentral ERP system to retrieve invoice documents (Rechnungsbeleg) by their ID. It supports fetching individual invoice records from the ERP, which is useful for automating workflows that require invoice data retrieval, such as accounting, reporting, or order processing. For example, a user can input an invoice ID to get detailed invoice information from Xentral.

Use Case Examples

1. Retrieve an invoice by its ID to verify payment status.
2. Fetch invoice details to generate a report or send to a customer.
3. Automate invoice data extraction for integration with other financial systems.
