Proforma Invoice


Short description

This report allows you to generate a standardized proforma invoice based on order data for cases where no invoice exists yet. This is particularly relevant for B2B or B2C use cases, for example when an order confirmation in PDF format is required.

Open the Reports area in pixi Web. Here you can create the “Proforma Invoice” report by creating a corresponding report profile (DE: „Proforma-Rechnung”).
