E-Invoice - VNIs VN-Invoice Integrator
Integrates with VN-Invoice service to issue legal e-Invoice
At a Glance
The facts of E-Invoice - VNIs VN-Invoice Integrator, version 0.2, in one place. Published by Viindoo.
Key Features
VN-Invoice (VNIs), fully integrated with the unified E-Invoice interface:
One Unified E-Invoice Interface
VN-Invoice is configured, issued, tracked, adjusted, replaced and cancelled from the same E-Invoice menu, notebook tab and status filter as every other provider - no separate screen to learn.
Approve-and-Sign Lifecycle
A VN-Invoice-only capability: each e-invoice is signed in the same send that issues it, and any e-invoice left unsigned is signed again in one click, alone or with others.
E-Invoice Cancel-Guard
An issued e-invoice can no longer be plainly cancelled, however long ago it was issued - the system blocks the action and guides you to an adjustment or a replacement instead, keeping your books compliant.
Safe 3-Step / 1-Step Cancel
Cancelling a signed VN-Invoice runs a controlled 3-step process (error notification, sign, delete) with a mandatory reason; an unsigned invoice cancels in one step - both fully auditable.
Detailed Status Tracking
A precise VN-Invoice state and sign-state model (original, adjusted, replaced, cancelled, signed, sign error, ...) rolls up into the single, normalized E-Invoice Status filter shared across every provider.
Representation and Converted Files
Generate and store the PDF/XML representation and the converted version of every issued invoice, ready for one-click download and automatic attachment to the customer email.
Multi-Company Serials, Templates and Types
Define and manage invoice serial, template and invoice type per company and per journal, matching what you have registered with VN-Invoice and the government authority.
Customer Portal Access
Customers view, print and download the display (PDF) and XML versions of their VN-Invoice straight from the customer portal.
Sandbox Mode and Chronological Safeguards
Test safely in sandbox before going live, and let the system enforce chronological issuing order so no earlier invoice is ever skipped.
Benefits
Comply with Vietnam's e-invoice regulations end to end, including the cancel-guard that keeps a signed, issued invoice from being improperly cancelled.
Issue, sign, adjust, replace and cancel directly inside Odoo/Viindoo - no manual printing, storing or delivering of paper invoices.
The same E-Invoice tab and status filter used for every provider gives you a single, real-time view of every VN-Invoice, minimizing errors and confusion.
Effortlessly manage invoice series, templates and types across different companies and journals from one system.
Give customers instant, self-service access to their legal invoices in the format they need, through the customer portal.

Instruction
Instruction video: VN-Invoice
This module plugs the VN-Invoice (VNIs) provider into the E-Invoice hub's unified interface: once installed, VN-Invoice becomes selectable in Vietnam E-Invoicing settings, and every VN-Invoice-issued invoice is configured, issued, tracked, adjusted, replaced and cancelled from the same E-Invoice menu, notebook tab and status filter that every other provider uses - with two capabilities that are VN-Invoice-only: the approve-and-sign lifecycle and the 3-step cancel.
1. Select VN-Invoice as the e-invoice provider.
- Go to Accounting > Configuration > Settings, open the Vietnam E-Invoicing section and set Provider to VN-Invoice. The VN-Invoice connection fields (login, sandbox/production, invoice serial/template/type) appear underneath once selected.
2. Issue an e-invoice through VN-Invoice.
- Confirm the customer invoice, then issue it. Confirm the request in the dialog that follows.
- Odoo issues the e-invoices of a serial in invoice date order. An invoice dated before an e-invoice already issued in its serial cannot be issued in that serial: keep its date and issue it in another serial registered with VN-Invoice, as Issue a forgotten invoice with its own date in the guide of the Vietnamese E-Invoice Integration module explains. E-invoices of another serial never hold it back; a parent company and its branches that share a serial are ordered together.
3. Sign the VN-Invoice (VN-Invoice-only sign lifecycle).
- Once issued, use the Sign VN-invoice button - shown next to the other e-invoice actions on the invoice - to approve and digitally sign it. The VN-invoice Sign State field (Waiting Approve / Not Sign / Waiting Sign / Signing / Signed / Sign Error) tracks progress on the merged E-Invoice tab; the representation and converted files can only be downloaded once the invoice is Signed.
- With Sign When Issuing on the e-invoice service (Configuration tab, on by default), VN-Invoice signs each e-invoice in the same send that issues it - after an online payment, from the scheduled batch Send, at the point of sale or from Send on the invoice. Paying an invoice never signs its e-invoice.
- If the signature fails, the e-invoice keeps its number and stays issued: its VN-invoice Sign State shows Sign Error and the reason is in the chatter. Sign and send each e-invoice no later than the next working day after its invoice date.
- To sign the issued e-invoices still unsigned, filter the customer invoice list with VN-Invoice Not Signed, select the invoices and run Actions > Sign VN-invoice. Each one is signed; a message names those VN-Invoice did not sign.
4. Download the representation and converted files.
- From the Documents section of the E-Invoice tab, download the PDF/XML representation and the converted file once the invoice is signed.
5. Track the status once the invoice is paid.
- After the customer invoice is reconciled, both the customer invoice and the single E-Invoice Status update automatically - Paid on the invoice, and the matching status on the VNIs system - visible through the same E-Invoice Status filter and group-by used for every provider.
6. Send the e-invoice to the customer.
- Send the invoice by email; the VN-Invoice representation file is attached automatically instead of the default invoice template.
7. Adjust or replace instead of cancelling - and cancel safely when you still can.
- An already-issued e-invoice can no longer be simply cancelled, however long ago it was issued - the system blocks the cancel action and guides you to issue an adjustment or a replacement e-invoice instead.
- For an invoice still eligible to cancel, VN-Invoice runs a 3-step cancel when the invoice is Signed (create the error notification, sign the error notification, then delete) or a single-step cancel when it is not yet signed. Cancelling a signed invoice requires a cancellation reason.
