Shore POS DATEV MeinFiskal Integration

With the DATEV integration, data from your POS system can be transmitted directly to your tax advisor — in compliance with financial regulations.

Important: The DATEV Kassenarchiv integration can only be set up once all test transactions in your POS system have been reset.

If you'd like to use the DATEV integration, send us an email at service@shore.com so we can activate the integration for you — you can then set everything up as described here.

Please note: This integration is only available to customers whose business is based in Germany.

How Does the DATEV MeinFiskal Integration Work?

You can connect your Shore POS system to the DATEV Kassenarchiv online within DATEV MeinFiskal. This transmits all "business transactions," including the "Z-report," to the DATEV Kassenarchiv online.

To exchange data with your DATEV tax advisor, your DATEV Kassenarchiv online also needs to be connected to your tax advisor's DATEV Kassenbuch online. It's best to discuss with your DATEV tax advisor how you'd like to proceed. You can either set up the connection yourself, or your tax advisor can handle it. You'll need a DATEV MeinFiskal account for the DATEV Kassenarchiv. Your DATEV tax advisor likely already has their Unternehmen online account and can advise you on connecting the DATEV Kassenbuch online, or set it up on your behalf.

You'll find more information on DATEV here, along with a link to the DATEV onboarding assistant.

DATEV Kassenarchiv Online & DATEV Kassenbuch Online:

DATEV Kassenarchiv Online

Under German law, since January 1, 2017, cash-intensive businesses have been required to archive POS data in an audit-proof way, and it must be available and immediately readable at any time in the event of a tax audit. DATEV Kassenarchiv online meets this requirement by reliably archiving your POS data subject to retention requirements in the DATEV cloud for 10 years, in compliance with GoBD and with the highest level of security. Business transactions — i.e. everything you've processed via the register — are recorded in the Kassenarchiv via the Z-reports.

Connecting the DATEV Kassenbuch

With the Kassenbuch interface, POS data from DATEV Kassenarchiv online can be automatically transferred to DATEV Kassenbuch online and made available for bookkeeping. This creates a seamless digital workflow from the register all the way through to your bookkeeping. POS data can be conveniently transferred to bookkeeping on a daily basis — giving your tax advisor direct access to it.

What Do You Need?

As mentioned, you'll need a DATEV MeinFiskal account to set up a DATEV Kassenarchiv online, the cost of which depends on the number of "folders" required, which is generally tied to the number of directories. The DATEV Kassenarchiv online can then be connected to DATEV Kassenbuch online for an additional fee.
