CONNECTED EVERYDAY WORKFLOWS
Built for today.
Ready for your next step.
Six clear areas bring your everyday financial workflows together.
Invoices that fit your business
Prepare invoices with customers, items, tax rates and payment terms. Create PDF invoices with your own logo and templates. Create and technically validate structured e-invoices in supported formats.
- Manage customers and services
- Drafts and traceable corrections
- Send through your own SMTP mailbox
OCR for receipts, photos and camera
PDFs, photos or your camera: browser-based text recognition prepares information for review. Read multiple files and receipts in a batch.
- Supplier, date and amounts suggested
- Review the 7%, 19% and 0% VAT split
- Save reviewed receipts as Expenses
OCR import for sales invoices & Mews
Read your own sales invoices from PDFs or images as drafts. Mews PDFs and supported Mews Excel files can be prepared for structured review.
- Supplier invoices belong in Expenses
- Review import suggestions before accepting
- Importing neither reissues an invoice nor records payment
Reports, CSV & DATEV
Review income, expenses, VAT and preliminary EÜR by period. CSV and Excel exports support sharing with your tax adviser. The DATEV section currently provides cash CSV for reconciliation, not a ready-to-import DATEV posting batch.
- CSV and Excel for further review
- Accountant/DATEV details in cash CSV
- Your adviser assigns counter-accounts and tax keys.
Keep outstanding amounts visible
Record payments and partial payments, track due dates and keep an eye on receivables and payables.
- Outstanding balances and due-date overview
- Cash movements and asset register
- Preliminary straight-line depreciation schedule
One workspace for your team
Work with separate owner, administrator and bookkeeping permissions. Keep company profiles, documents and changes organised.
- Change log and protected documents
- Data and document exports plus manual backup
- Help section and light or dark appearance
FROM RECEIPT TO OVERVIEW
Three steps. A traceable workflow.
Add a file
Photograph a receipt or choose PDFs, images or a supported import.
Review the details
Compare supplier, date, VAT and total with the original. Correct suggestions before accepting them.
Keep everything organised
Save reviewed information, allocate payments and use reports or exports for your next step.
ELSTER · CURRENT STATUS
Prepare and check. See the actual status.
Local ERiC validation and an authenticated connection test using fixed example data are provided for UStVA 2026. They require the available ERiC runtime and a suitable certificate. A test does not file a tax return.
Real tax submissions are currently disabled. Other tax types are not yet implemented as submission forms.
A few things to know before you start.
Who is YWAY for?
Individuals and businesses in Germany, from organising your own finances to working as a team. Company profiles can accommodate different legal forms and tax situations. This does not mean every tax return can already be filed electronically.
Can I upload several receipts at once?
Yes. Select multiple PDFs or images. Recognised receipts within a file are prepared for individual review. OCR results are suggestions: check the count, supplier, date, VAT split and amount against each original.
What happens to existing sales invoices?
Imports prepare them as reviewable drafts. Previously issued invoices are neither reissued nor automatically marked paid. Review Mews imports before accepting them.
Do I need a tax number before I start?
You can add details gradually. Preparatory forms help collect missing tax information. A new tax number is not issued automatically; the responsible Finanzamt decides on registration.
Can I work with my tax adviser?
Yes. Separate permissions and data/document exports support collaboration. Agree directly with your adviser on the information and format they need.
Are OCR, EÜR and reports binding tax advice?
No. OCR suggestions require review. EÜR, tax overviews and depreciation schedules are working or preliminary reports and need checking for your specific situation.
Give your finances a clearer home.
