A-Cube Transfer
A-Cube Transfer sends the files your ERP already exports. It converts them to Facturae when needed and delivers them through A-Cube's e-invoicing service for Spain. Upload through SFTP without writing an invoicing integration, or use the file upload API from your application.
For onboarding, uploads, tracking and receiving, see the complete Transfer documentation. This page covers the formats, connection details and outcomes for Spain.
Before your first upload, A-Cube activates your account and agrees the file format with you. You can use the standard layout or have A-Cube build a conversion for your CSV, JSON or XML export.
How it works
- Your ERP exports the documents as files, for example a CSV spreadsheet or Facturae XML.
- You upload the files to the SFTP folder A-Cube provides. Your application can also upload a file with an HTTP call to the file upload API, after A-Cube confirms access for your destination.
- A-Cube reads each file and, if it is not Facturae yet, converts it. A CSV file can contain several documents: each one becomes a separate electronic document.
- A-Cube delivers each document through its e-invoicing service for Spain.
- You check processing and delivery separately. The tracking API reports file processing and gives you each document's identifier. Use that identifier in the invoicing API to check the later delivery outcome.
When to use it
| Use | When |
|---|---|
| A-Cube Transfer | Your system can export invoice information, and you want to send it as it is, without writing code that builds each document. |
| Invoices API | Your application creates each document in Facturae and sends it to A-Cube with an API call. |
What you can send
| File | What A-Cube does | Availability |
|---|---|---|
| Facturae: documents already in this format | Sends them as they are. Several files can travel in one ZIP archive. | Available |
| The A-Cube standard CSV or UBL | Converts them to Facturae. | Available |
| Your own format: the CSV, JSON or XML files your ERP already produces | A-Cube builds the conversion of your layout to Facturae. | Custom |
Availability describes how A-Cube sets up each capability:
- Available: ask A-Cube and it is enabled for you, with no development.
- Custom: A-Cube builds it for you, for example the conversion of your own CSV layout.
Get started
- Contact A-Cube with your destination, a sample export with test data, and your preferred channel (SFTP or file upload API). Request sandbox access to try the integration.
- A-Cube confirms your format, credentials, connection details and where to read the delivery outcome. See Onboarding and access.
- Upload a first file with the Quickstart SFTP. Use the sample and sandbox username for your destination.
