Quba-Viewer

Quba-Viewer (homepage) is a cross platform open source application to display structured (i.e., XML) and hybrid (Factur-X/ZUGFeRD PDF) electronic invoices.

Documentation-wise there is a doc RE Architecture, Development, Debugging and testing in general and some Electron and E-Invoice peculiarities like interprocess (IPC) communication, XSLT and codelists in particular.

Pedigree

The FeRD had published visualization XSLTs for ZF1 (~=UN/CEFACT C13B) as open source, unfortunately the ones for the UN/CEFACT C16B-based version 2 remains proprietary. The Kosit released XSLT for both CII and UBL of the XRechnung (XR) which has been used for various online viewers but also for offline viewers like Ultramarinviewer and Open XRechnung Toolbox. Quba uses this work added translations and at least experimental support for Factur-X/ZUGFeRD profiles higher than EN16931.

Known issues

• While XRechnung, EN16931 and below should work, not all FX attributes/elements of the Extended Profile have yet been mapped, feel free to report missing ones
• conversion of XSLT to sef.json xslt3 -xsl:ubl-creditnote-xr.xsl -export:ubl-creditnote-xr.sef.json -t on windows works only in cmd.exe, not powershell
