The e-invoicing response field mapping for Sovos maps values in Sovos response data, which includes additional information generated by the tax authority, to fields on the EInvoiceData object in Zuora.

After an e-invoicing document is successfully processed in Sovos, Sovos sends the billing-document-related information such as the reference number, QR code data, authorization code, and so on, in the response data.

You can configure response field mappings at the business region level to customize the field mapping rules of the EInvoiceData object.

You can only configure response field mappings for a country that is not pre-integrated with Zuora. The default response field mappings have been configured and cannot be changed for pre-integrated countries. For more information, see Manage country-specific configurations.

Supported response fields

The following table lists supported e-invoicing response fields. Most of these fields are from the EInvoiceData object, except for the EInvoiceFile field.

Field name Format Description
EInvoiceFile String

This field is used to store the cleared e-invoice file returned from the tax authority.

This is not a field on the EInvoiceData object. Zuora retrieves the cleared e-invoice file according to this field and stores the file ID in the EInvoiceFileId field on billing documents. You can download the file with the Retrieve a file API operation.
AuthorizationCode String

This field is used to store the authorization code issued by the administration when the e-invoicing data of a billing document is approved by the tax authority.
QrCode String

This field is used to store the QR code generated by the tax authority.

You do not need to map this field if the tax authority does not provide a QR code.
ReferenceNumber String

This field is used to store the unique number generated by the tax authority.

You do not need to map this field if the tax authority does not provide this number.
Field1 - Field10 String

These reserved fields are used to store additional information. You can map any values in the Sovos response data to these fields to meet your business needs.

The maximum number of characters for the fields are as follows:

  • Field1 to Field5: 2048
  • Field6 to Field10: 8192

Field path format

A field path in a field mapping configuration is a string that indicates a node in Sovos’ XML response payload, and the string must comply with the XML Path Language (XPath) syntax.

For more information, see XPath syntax for e-invoicing response field mapping.
