1.Introduction
This is the manual for the integration between Bol.com and Visma eAccounting.
This integration ensures that orders from the Bol.com webshop are automatically processed to orders, invoices or sales bookings in Visma eAccounting. Because the orders enter the webshop owner's accounting system directly, it saves time on financial administration.
Please pay special attention to the following
- This integration is a financial integration. It is not a logistics integration. It is not suitable for updating customers in Visma eAccounting, printing packing slips, or synchronizing products/inventory.
- This integration does not replace the work of an accountant. It saves time because you no longer have to retype documents. The accountant is still needed for advice, expertise, and control.
- The integration attempts to determine the VAT percentage of the product in Visma eAccounting if processing is done to invoices or orders. If successful, the integration uses the VAT percentage belonging to this product. In all other cases, the integration uses the default VAT percentage as configured in the Configuration tab of the dashboard.
Tip: Other customers using this integration found the tips in the FAQ for Bol.com and in the FAQ for Visma eAccounting.

2.How the integration works
A order from the Bol.com webshop is processed to Visma eAccounting as invoice, order or sales booking. You can set the desired option via the dashboard.
New orders from your webshop are retrieved at least once per hour. Orders are retrieved from the shipping list at Bol.com, not from the Open orders list. An order is only processed once all products in that order have been shipped. Outstanding orders are updated during the night.
Returns are not processed automatically. If you want to process returns, send us an email .

At the start of processing an order, we perform a number of checks on the Bol.com order:

Processing orders
Processing a Bol.com order to Visma eAccounting takes place in three steps:
Processing a Bol.com order to Visma eAccounting takes place in three steps:
- It is checked if the customer already exists in Visma eAccounting. If not, the customer is created. Matching is based on the email address.
- When processing to Visma invoices or orders, it is checked whether products are already present in Visma. Missing products are added.
- The Visma eAccounting invoice, order or sales booking is created and processed.
Post-check
After the order has been forwarded and a success message from Visma eAccounting has been received, the order is marked as handled. The Bol.com order appears at the Reporting tab on the dashboard.
If Visma eAccounting returns an error while processing the order, the order appears in the Errors tab on the dashboard. Via the yellow button More info more information about the problem can be found. Via the red button Report problem can the order with all necessary information easily be submitted to us after you have tried to resolve the problem yourself. If the problem is solved, in some cases the orders can be processed again with the blue Process button.

Configure VAT rates and general ledger accounts
When configuring the VAT rates and general ledger accounts, a link is created between the VAT rates in webshop and the VAT codes and revenue accounts in Visma eAccounting. You can always make changes by clicking the blue 'Edit' button and selecting an option from the drop-down menus.
Bol.com does not provide VAT percentages on your orders. Therefore, you can enter a default VAT percentage for NL, BE, and Other for the integration.
Intra-Community (ICP) and international deliveries
The Intra-Community supplies / ICP option is intended for business-to-business deliveries within the EU. These sales are invoiced with 0% VAT. A VAT number from the customer is required. The International option applies to deliveries outside the EU. For these sales, the integration expects 0% VAT; otherwise, the sales cannot be processed. Separate VAT codes and general ledger accounts can be configured for both ICP and international deliveries.
Once the VAT settings have been configured and saved, you will always see the selected VAT rates. If you want to start over, you can use the grey 'Remove VAT settings' button. Your current settings will then be deleted and you can begin again.

5.Day-to-day: From Bol.com
This section explains how the integration retrieves orders from the Bol.com account.
Processing schedule: The integration retrieves orders every hour from the Bol.com shipping list. This means that if orders are still in the open order list of Bol.com (or partially), the orders are not yet processed. The integration can go back up to 3 months in time to retrieve orders. After three months, the orders disappear from the shipping list and the integration can no longer retrieve them.
Once an order has been processed, it cannot be processed again. An order that is modified in Bol after it has been processed will not be adjusted in Visma eAccounting.
The Netherlands and Belgium For some businesses it is important to split Bol.com orders between the Netherlands and Belgium due to VAT returns and threshold amounts. It is possible to post the orders to country-specific general ledger accounts. More information in the FAQ.
