FAQ
How does the plugin work?
The plugin connects to the Facturador Virtual API, which automatically generates electronic invoices for every purchase made in your online store.
What do I need to start using the plugin?
Just follow these steps:
- Create a Facturador Virtual account (if you already have one, you can sign in with it, no need to create a new one): website
- Purchase the Integration Plan that best fits your needs: Our Plans
- Go to your account profile: My Profile
- Copy the API Token and Access Token values.
- Paste those values into the plugin’s Configuration fields.
- Select the economic activity you want to invoice with.
Do I need to configure anything in WooCommerce?
Yes, you need to make the following adjustments so your invoices reflect taxes correctly, as required by electronic invoicing.
To calculate the VAT of products/services correctly on invoices:
In WooCommerce Settings > “Tax” tab > “Prices entered with tax” select “No, I will enter prices exclusive of tax”.
If you want the store to show the final price to the customer including VAT: go to WooCommerce Settings > “Tax” tab and, for both “Display prices in the shop” and “Display prices during cart and checkout”, select “Including tax”.
Enter the price without VAT for each of your products.
Enter the CAByS code for each of your products.
To calculate the VAT of shipping correctly on invoices:
In WooCommerce Settings > “Shipping” tab > create or edit your flat-rate zone > enter the shipping price without VAT.
In WooCommerce Settings > “Tax” tab > “Shipping tax class” select the VAT that applies (for example iva-tarifa-general-13).
In WooCommerce Settings > “Tax” tab > select at the top the tax you will apply to shipping (for example iva-tarifa-general-13) > “Tax rates” > on the tax row check the “Shipping” box.
Can I contact a technician to run tests?
Yes. Once you have the plugin installed and configured following the steps above, you can write to desarrollo@facturadorvirtual.com to coordinate a joint testing session.
