Configuration¶
Open the event's Settings → Invoicing (PT). (It's labelled "(PT)" to tell it apart from pretix's own "Invoicing" entry.)
General¶
| Setting | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Invoicing provider | none | Which provider issues documents. With none, nothing is issued. Only the selected provider's fields are saved. |
| The custom invoice-address field holds the buyer's tax number | off | See Tax numbers (NIF). |
| Show the invoice on the buyer's order page | on | Adds a download button next to the ticket downloads. The PDF is proxied through pretix, so your provider credentials never reach the browser. |
E-mail¶
pretix's own order e-mails can't attach these documents (they only attach pretix's own invoices), so the plugin sends its own.
| Setting | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| E-mail the invoice-receipt to the buyer | off | Sends the PDF once it's issued. |
| E-mail the credit note to the buyer | off | Sends the credit note's PDF once it's issued. |
A failed e-mail is logged and never marks the issuance as failed — the document already exists.
Provider settings¶
Below the general settings, fill in the selected provider's fields:
Some fields (VAT rate, company, document set…) turn into dropdowns populated live from your provider account as soon as valid credentials are typed — no need to save first.
Tax numbers (NIF)¶
By default the buyer's tax number is read from pretix's VAT ID field on the invoice address. pretix only offers that field to business customers, so individuals have nowhere to enter a NIF.
To collect it from everyone:
- Under pretix's Settings → Invoicing, add a custom recipient field labelled e.g. "NIF".
- Turn on The custom invoice-address field holds the buyer's tax number here.
The custom field is then used when the VAT ID is empty. Portuguese numbers that fail their check digit are ignored rather than sent.
Without a tax number, the document is issued to a final consumer (999999990).
