E-reporting is the process of sending required sales data to the French tax authority, DGFiP, for transactions that do not go through e-invoicing.

Unlike e-invoicing, e-reporting does not send the invoice to your customer through the e-invoicing portal. In Zoho Inventory, you use it mainly for B2C and international sales, while sharing the invoice with your customer separately, for example as a PDF.

Zoho Inventory currently supports e-reporting for invoices, credit notes, and payments received, so you can report both the transaction and the payment information from the relevant sales records.

**Scenario:** Patricia, an accounts receivable specialist at Zylker, a French consultancy, sells to an individual customer in France who cannot receive invoices through the e-invoicing portal. Patricia sends the invoice as a PDF and reports the sale using e-reporting in Zoho Inventory. B2Brouter batches the sales data for DGFiP, and Patricia can track the report’s status in Zoho Inventory.

Zoho Inventory uses e-reporting for sales transactions that do not go through e-invoicing. This includes:

*   B2C sales in France
*   Sales to customers outside France

**Note:** E-reporting currently supports only sales transactions. Support for purchase transactions will be added soon.

## Report Invoices and Credit Notes

To report an invoice or credit note:

*   Go to _Sales_ on the left sidebar and select **Invoices** or **Credit Notes**.
    
*   Select the transaction.
    
*   If the transaction is in **Draft** status, click **Mark as Open**.
    
*   If the _E-Invoice Status_ is **Excluded from E-Invoicing** and the _E-Report Status_ is **Yet To Be Pushed**, click **E-Report Invoice**.
    
*   In the confirmation pop-up, click **Push**.
    

Zoho Inventory uses e-reporting only when the transaction does not qualify for e-invoicing. You can track the progress from the details page.

## Report Payments Received

You can also report payments received in Zoho Inventory.

To report a payment:

*   Go to _Sales_ on the left sidebar and select **Payments Received**.
*   Select the payment.
*   Click **Report Payment**.
*   In the confirmation pop-up, click **Report Payment** again.

**Note:** Push or report the associated invoice before you report the payment.

## E-Reporting Statuses

On the transaction details page, Zoho Inventory displays the _E-Report Status_ below the _E-Invoice Status_.

B2Brouter, the approved platform, collects e-reporting data and submits it to DGFiP once every 10 days. As a result, the final e-reporting outcome is available only after that batch is processed.

You may see the following statuses for a transaction or payment:

Status

Description

**Yet To Be Pushed**

The transaction or payment is eligible for e-reporting but has not been submitted yet.

**Push Initiated**

The transaction or payment has been pushed from Zoho Inventory to B2Brouter.

**Submitted**

B2Brouter has collected the data and submitted it successfully to DGFiP.

**Failed**

DGFiP did not accept the e-reporting submission. Expand the dropdown to view the reason, create a correction invoice, make the required changes, and push it again.
