Some tax firms only work with one particular platform and want receipts exclusively from there. In that case this platform is the pragmatic choice. If your tax adviser accepts a DATEV export (DATEV is the accounting software most German tax advisers use), you run your whole business in WorkOrderAgent and stay in control.

Tax adviser platform Category 5

- **Focus:** mainly serves the tax firm
- **Your role:** supplying receipts
- **Orders:** rarely covered
- **Portal, shop:** usually not
- **WorkOrderAgent:** provides DATEV CSV export

## How your tax adviser gets the data from WorkOrderAgent

Your tax adviser still takes care of the annual accounts. You supply the figures without shoeboxes and folders going back and forth.

- Upload receipts: By photo, scan or email. The document management system archives in line with GoBD (German rules for digital bookkeeping).
- Sorted and recognised: The system sorts the receipts by date and supplier.
- Package at month end: Your tax adviser receives the booking entries as DATEV CSV, cleanly assigned to accounts.

## Platform for the tax firm or platform for the business owner

Tax adviser platforms are designed for the tax firm to capture the data. In WorkOrderAgent you run your business yourself, from quote to payment.
