Forward invoices to your accountant — automatically
UBL XML or PDF, incoming and outgoing, zero manual effort
Mail Forward connects your Odoo invoicing to your accountant's software by automatically emailing invoices to their import address the moment they are confirmed or sent. Works with any accountant platform that accepts invoices via email, including Octopus, BilltoBox, Yuki, and many others.
Invoice List — Accountant Status at a Glance
A dedicated Accountant column in the invoice list shows the forwarding status of every invoice. Green Sent badges confirm successful delivery at a glance.
Simple Configuration
Set up in seconds under Accounting → Configuration → Settings. Enter your accountant software name and the import email addresses for incoming and outgoing invoices — that's all it takes.
Full Audit Trail in the Chatter
Every forward action is logged directly in the invoice chatter with a timestamp, document type (UBL XML or PDF), and destination software name — so you always know exactly what was sent and when.
Bulk Action from the List
Select multiple invoices and use the Actions → Forward to Accountant Software menu to forward them all at once — ideal for catching up on older invoices after installation.
