Set Up and Configure Merchants - Germany

Merchants in Germany can configure fiscal settings in Point of Sale CMS to turn on fiscalization.

Initial merchant setup on EFSTA will be performed by the Point of Sale team, and merchant users will be able to log in to the EFSTA portal. Merchants will be able to access their reports on the portal.

Configuration Process - Point of Sale CMS Settings

Point of Sale CMS groups fiscalization settings in one place. The navigation path you use depends on whether you’re setting up fiscalization for the first time.

  1. For new merchants, go to Integrations > Fiscalization and create a configuration. If you can’t create a configuration, switch to a merchant region that supports fiscalization. For example, a U.S. merchant region that doesn’t support fiscalization won’t allow you to create one.
  2. For legacy merchants, go to Store Management > Store Settings > Fiscal.
    1. Expand All and enable/configure these settings:
      Enabling Fiscalization
      Tax Identifier (merchant tax ID).

Email Receipt Configuration

If a merchant intends to use Point of Sale's email receipt template for printing Fiscal data on the email receipts, add specific fiscal tags to the Email receipt template.
