Invoice Generation

Basics

A complete example of generating a standard invoice can be found in the following file:

./examples/document/invoice/create_invoice_with_custom_data.php

The steps required for generating an invoice are as follows:

// 1. Creating a paper invoice (invoice to be paid by bank transfer, in Hungarian language (HUF), with today's issue and fulfillment date, and payment due in +8 days).
$invoice = new Invoice(Invoice::INVOICE_TYPE_P_INVOICE);

// 2. Adding custom header data to the invoice (e.g., invoice image template)
$invoice->getHeader()->setInvoiceTemplate(Invoice::INVOICE_TEMPLATE_8CM);

// 3. Adding seller data to the invoice
$invoice->setSeller(new Seller('OBER', '11111111-22222222-33333333'));

// 4. Adding buyer data (mandatory fields)
$buyer = new Buyer('Kovacs Bt.', '2030', 'Érd', 'Tarnoki street 23.');

// a) Adding buyer data to the invoice
$invoice->setBuyer($buyer);

// 5. Compiling invoice item with default data
// (1 item with 27% VAT content)
$item = new InvoiceItem('Item 1', 10000.0);

// a) Setting the net value of the item
$item->setNetPrice(10000.0);

// b) Setting the VAT amount of the item
$item->setVatAmount(2700.0);

// c) Setting the gross value of the item
$item->setGrossAmount(12700.0);

// d) Adding item data to the invoice
$invoice->addItem($item);

// 6. Generating the invoice
$result = $agent->generateInvoice($invoice);
