How it works

From invoice to voucher

Three steps. One file for your books.

Your invoices are already in Wisegent. On the SIE files page you collect them in a file your bookkeeping program can read.

  1. 01

    Select the invoices

    Choose the invoices to book. Any invoice that is not a draft and is not already in another SIE file can be selected.

  2. 02

    Create the SIE file

    Wisegent creates a SIE type 4I file with one balanced voucher per invoice, dated on the invoice date. Download the file from the overview.

  3. 03

    Import and mark as sent

    Import the file into your bookkeeping program. Then mark the file as sent in Wisegent, so you can see which files are imported already.

What the voucher looks like

Debits and credits balance.

Each invoice is booked with the invoice method (faktureringsmetoden) on BAS accounts. The customer’s part and the RUT or ROT part go to separate receivable accounts. Sales and output VAT are split by VAT rate.

Accounts by VAT rate

12%30422621
6%30432631
0%3044–

The customer’s part is booked on 1518 and the RUT or ROT part on 1513.

Example

Invoice with RUT deduction, SEK 1,250 incl. VAT

Account Text Debit Credit
Customer’s part 625.00
RUT part 625.00
Sales 25% 1,000.00
Output VAT 25% 250.00
Total 1,250.00 1,250.00
A simplified example. The series and voucher number are set by your bookkeeping program on import.

Clear responsibilities

We create the file. You keep the books.

SIE export saves you from entering your invoices again. Wisegent does not book anything itself. The import in your bookkeeping program creates the vouchers.

Ready to import in Visma.

The file follows SIE 4I, the standard Visma and most Swedish bookkeeping programs use to import vouchers. This is where Visma’s help pages place the import. Try a test import before you start.

The file has been checked on the official SIE test bench at sietest.sie.se, with no errors.

Good to know

Questions about SIE files.

Understand where the file in Wisegent ends and the bookkeeping in your program begins.

Does Wisegent send the vouchers to our accounting automatically?

No. Wisegent creates a SIE file for you to download. You or your accountant import the file into your bookkeeping program. Wisegent does not book anything itself.

Which bookkeeping programs work?

The file follows SIE 4I, which Visma eEkonomi (Spiris Bokföring), Visma Administration and most Swedish bookkeeping programs can import. It has been checked on the official SIE test bench. Try a test import in your own program before you start.

Does the SIE file work with the cash method?

No. The vouchers are booked with the invoice method on the invoice date. The cash method (kontantmetoden) is not supported.

Can the same invoice be exported twice?

Yes. You can create a new file with the same invoices at any time, such as after a correction. Import only the file you want to book, or the invoice is booked twice. Mark the files you have imported as sent.

Who sets the voucher number?

Your bookkeeping program. The series and voucher number are set on import, so the vouchers follow the numbering in your books.
