Delivery or service date is missing

In Germany every Bill needs to show a delivery or service date: The date the delivery or service was completed.

I could not find this field and also no other topic here.

Thanks for your support.

BR, Manuel

There are existing discussions about this topic:
Abrechnungszeitraum / Billing period
Delivery Date / Lieferdatum
delivery date

There is a field for this value in the e-invoice dialog and for PDF invoices you can currently either add this in the free text fields (and potentially use the {date_invoice} placeholder) and/or rename the invoice date key in the invoice type

Hi Timo, thanks for your quick reply. This is sad as in Germany every Invoice needs to have the service date. If I write it manually it could be forgotten as there is no "Master Document" from to copy at.

Hi Manuel,

I understand your concern about forgetting to add it manually. The requirement does not apply to every invoice, however, and a single service date can also be sufficient.

SubTotal already supports a service date for e-invoices. For adding it as a dedicated field to PDF invoices, please join the discussions linked above, where I outlined the challenges, and add your use case or like there.
