Ce que cela signifie pour vous
Vous avez peut-être utilisé la flexibilité de la version globale pour gérer différents workflows au sein de Zoho Books, ainsi qu’entre Zoho Books et d’autres applications Zoho. Avec ces nouvelles mises à jour, la conformité devient prioritaire, et certains de ces workflows devront être adaptés.
Nous vous recommandons vivement de revoir vos configurations actuelles et de vous préparer à la migration en tenant compte de ces évolutions. Étant donné que Zoho Books propose désormais des champs dédiés pour les informations clients et entreprises, il est important de bien comprendre comment les flux de données sont gérés dans cette nouvelle version.
Si vous avez des questions ou besoin d’accompagnement pendant cette transition, n’hésitez pas à nous contacter à
support@eu.zohobooks.comFacturation électronique dans Zoho Books
La facturation électronique sera disponible nativement pour les utilisateurs de Zoho Books. Aucune intégration ou configuration supplémentaire ne sera nécessaire pour commencer à traiter des factures électroniques dans le système.
Cependant, veuillez noter les éléments suivants :
- Coût supplémentaire : Jusqu’à 1000 transactions par an seront incluses dans les plans payants. Au-delà, la facturation électronique sera proposée en option (add-on) et entraînera des frais supplémentaires.
- Propulsé par B2B Router : À ce jour, B2B Router prend en charge uniquement la facturation électronique et travaille activement à l’ajout des fonctionnalités d’e-reporting.
- Périmètre au lancement (mi-juin 2026) : Lors de sa sortie, Zoho Books prendra en charge uniquement la facturation électronique, et non l’e-reporting.
Point d’attention important
- L’e-reporting est obligatoire pour les transactions B2C selon la réglementation française.
- Si votre activité concerne uniquement des échanges B2B, l’e-reporting n’est pas requis et les fonctionnalités actuellement disponibles seront suffisantes.
Nous vous tiendrons informés dès que les fonctionnalités d’e-reporting seront disponibles.
Webinars et démonstrations
Nous prévoyons d’organiser deux webinars dans les prochains mois afin de présenter ces nouvelles fonctionnalités :
- 12 mai 2026 : fonctionnalités de conformité NF525 et rapports FEC
- 12 juin 2026 : webinar dédié à la facturation électronique
Nous partagerons les liens d’inscription dès la semaine prochaine afin que vous puissiez vous enregistrer.
Encore une fois, merci pour votre patience. Nous continuerons à mettre à jour ce fil avec les prochaines informations.
Merci
In English
Dear Customers
Thank you for your patience and continued support.
With upcoming regulatory requirements in France, we’re introducing more capabilities in Zoho Books for customers in France. These updates are purpose-built to meet local compliance standards. We're starting with the below functionalities and we will continue to add more capabilities in it.
🇫🇷 What are the new updates
- Built-in NF525 Compliance
- E-Invoicing Support (powered by B2B Router)
- FEC (Fichier des Écritures Comptables) Reports
📅 Timelines
- May 15, 2026 –Newly created organizations will receive NF525 updates

- June 8th, 2026 - Early access for e-Invoicing
- June 21, 2026 – Migration banner available for all customers
- July 15th, 2026 - General availability for E-Invoicing for all
What NF525 Compliance Means
With NF525 compliance, Zoho Books now:
- Secures all sales data against modification or deletion
- Ensures full traceability of transactions
- Archives data in line with French legal requirements
- Helps businesses meet tax authority obligations with confidence
Important: Impact on Workflows
To meet compliance standards, certain flexibilities available in the global version have been restricted. It’s important to reassess current implementations and workflows accordingly.
Key Changes in Zoho Books
- Invoice numbers are assigned only when marked as “Sent”
- Draft invoices will not carry numbers
- Editing of Sent Invoices will not be allowed.
- Sequential numbering is strictly enforced
- Transaction series cannot be modified once used
- Credit notes require a reference invoice number
- Only one VAT registration (France) is supported
- VAT numbers and registration data are validated and mandatory
- Mandatory invoice fields (e.g., address, date, number) cannot be removed
- Tax summaries and key columns (taxable amount, tax, discounts) are required
- Legal identifiers (SIRET, legal form) are mandatory
- Additional fields (RCS number, share capital, NAF code) are supported
- Customer billing address is mandatory for invoicing
- PDF structure and compliance validations are enforced
- Custom field visibility in PDFs cannot be toggled
- Certain transactions (e.g., sales without invoices) will no longer be supported
- Transaction posting date is not supported.
Features not supported going forward
- Customer debit notes
- Retention payments, early payment discounts, late fees
- Progress invoicing
- Sales receipts
- Retainer Invoices
- TDS
- Reverse charge
- VAT MOSS, OSS
- Tax override
What This Means for You
You may have leveraged the flexibility of the global platform to support diverse workflows within Zoho Books and also between Zoho Books and other Zoho apps. With the new updates, compliance takes priority, and some of those workflows will need to be adapted.
We strongly recommend reviewing your current setups and preparing for migration in line with these changes. Considering there are now dedicated fields in Zoho Books to capture customer and business information, its important that you understand how the data flows are currently captured in the new version of Zoho Books.
E-Invoicing in Zoho Books
E-Invoicing will be available out of the box for users of Zoho Books. No separate integration or setup is required to start processing e-invoices within the system.
However, please note the following:
- Additional Cost : We will support up to 1000 transactions/year in paid plans. For additional transactions, e-Invoicing will be offered as an add-on and will involve an additional fee for users.
- Powered by B2B Router : Currently, B2B Router supports e-Invoicing only and is actively working on introducing e-Reporting capabilities.
- Scope at Launch (Mid-June 2026) : When e-Invoicing is released, Zoho Books will support only e-Invoicing, not e-Reporting.
Important Consideration:
- E-Reporting is required for B2C transactions under French regulations.
- If your business operates only in B2B invoicing, e-Reporting is not required, and the available functionality will be sufficient.
We will keep you informed as e-Reporting capabilities become available.
Webinars and Demos
We are planning for two webinars in the coming months to show these features.
- May 12th, 2026 - NF525 compliance features, FEC Reports
- June 12, 2026 - E-Invoicing webinars
We'd share the webinars links by next week so you can register.
Once again, thank you for your patience and we will keep updating this thread on further information.
Regards.
