Enable embedded VERI*FACTU mode in Spain

VERI*FACTU is Spain’s new mandatory e-invoicing standard, requiring businesses to report invoices in real time to the Spanish Tax Agency (AEAT) using digital signatures, hash chaining, and QR code verification for authenticity and traceability. This feature enables Spanish companies to submit invoices automatically to AEAT, embed official QR codes, and maintain legal audit trails, helping prevent fraud and streamline auditing.

Users can activate VERI*FACTU mode by using a dedicated toggle, which ensures full compliance with Spanish e-invoicing regulations and prevents SII mode from being enabled at the same time.

Once the setup for VERI*FACTU is complete, any invoices posted (Posted Sales Invoice) in Business Central are automatically sent to the AEAT for clearance through the E-Document framework.

After the invoice is successfully validated, the system incorporates the official QR code issued by the AEAT directly onto the invoice layout, allowing users to print or email invoices that are legally compliant and easily verifiable by customers.
