The principle is identical to transaction generation, with a dedicated action: Generate e-reporting payments XML for the current period, covering flows 10.2 (BtoBi payments) and 10.4 (BtoC payments).
Here is the same simplified data model, useful here to identify the Settlement object and its links to the Invoice and the Deposit:
As with transactions:
the automation (scheduled Flow or batch) runs every day and only generates a file on the exact day of the filing deadline corresponding to the entity's VAT scheme;
if no eligible payment matches the period, nothing is generated (no blank filing);
there is no duplicate protection: make sure your scheduling only runs once a day.
A limitation to be aware of: no manual generation for an arbitrary period
Unlike transactions, there is not yet a self-service action to regenerate payment data for a past or arbitrary period. Only generation for the current period is directly available. If you need to replay a specific payment period, contact Frisbii support.
🔴 IMPORTANT — Special case: "Chargeable event on invoicing" scheme
A Company configured with the VAT chargeable event on invoicing never generates flows 10.2/10.4, regardless of its payments. This is not a bug: under this scheme, VAT becomes due at invoicing, so the collection date then has no fiscal relevance to report.
