I can display e-invoice Excel?

⚠ Machine-translated answer, not yet manually reviewed. For the exact wording, see the Slovak original.

Short answer

Yes, Excel may serve as an input table or temporary aid, but alone e-invoice must be valid XML in the right format. Excel file or PDF export from Excel are not e-invoice. In repeated exposure, it is safer to use a system that can validate and archive the result.

Input

Excel can help

The table may bear the number of the document, partner, items, prices, rates and payment details.

Output

XML is crucial

The result shall be a structured invoice validated by the validator and processed by the partner.

Hazard

Columns Not Enough

Missing dials, bad units or amounts can break exports even with a nice table.

Archive

Need proof package

Save XML, report, preview and link to the original data source.

Conclusion

Use Excel as an input device, not as the final format e-invoice.
