Every supplier invoice in sevDesk, captured and coded for you
Tailride finds your invoices wherever they land — inbox, supplier portals, messaging apps — reads every line with AI, and posts them into sevDesk as vouchers with your accounts, the right VAT rule and the original PDF attached. Around five minutes to set up.
Getting supplier invoices into sevDesk: your options
sevDesk has a few built-in ways to file documents. They handle the paperwork you already hold — the collecting, coding and checking still land on you.
Manual entry
SlowestOpen each PDF and type supplier, date, net, VAT and account into sevDesk by hand. Fine for a handful a month; past a couple of dozen it eats evenings.
Upload + document recognition
Half the jobsevDesk reads documents you upload and pre-fills the header fields. You still have to hunt down every file yourself, and check the account and tax rule on each one.
Email to your sevDesk inbox
LimitedForwarding invoices to your sevDesk upload address drops files into the document box. Handy — but portal invoices never arrive by email, and nothing comes out coded.
Tailride → sevDesk
RecommendedYou stop collecting and coding. Tailride pulls invoices from every source, reads them in full, checks the figures and the VAT treatment, and writes a finished voucher into sevDesk — booked to your accounts, not merely filed.
Set it up once, then leave it running
Four short steps connect Tailride to sevDesk — no developer, no plugin.
Create your Tailride account
Sign up for free. Tailride pools invoices from email, uploads and web portals into one workspace. Start free →
Link sevDesk
In sevDesk open Extensions → API, copy your API token and paste it into Tailride. Nothing is installed inside sevDesk; bookkeeping system 2.0 is required.
Invoices arrive automatically
From then on Tailride watches your inbox, grabs portal invoices through its browser extension, even takes receipts over WhatsApp and Telegram — reading each one in full.
Export to sevDesk
Check the coding or let the AI handle it, hit export, and the voucher lands in sevDesk with accounts, tax rule and PDF — as a draft, or booked outright if you prefer.
What you get with Tailride for sevDesk
Built for German businesses and tax advisors who run their bookkeeping in sevDesk and want vouchers in without hand-keying.
Pulls from your mailbox
Connect Gmail, Outlook or IMAP and Tailride lifts invoices as they arrive — attachments and in-body invoices alike, no forwarding rules to babysit.
Reaches supplier portals
Plenty of invoices never hit your inbox. The Tailride browser extension grabs them straight from portals like Amazon, Meta and Telekom while you're signed in. Browse portals →
Reads every field with AI
No per-supplier templates to build. The AI recognises supplier, invoice number, dates, net, VAT rate and line items on whatever layout and language it meets.
Codes to your chart of accounts
Tailride syncs your sevDesk accounts — SKR03, SKR04 or your own — and books each line to a real account of yours. Corrections you make stick for that supplier next time.
Handles VAT the safe way
Tailride checks the rate on the invoice against what your sevDesk tax rule permits. Reverse charge and foreign VAT come up for review instead of being posted as 0% behind your back.
Posts vouchers with the PDF
One click turns a captured invoice into a sevDesk voucher — supplier, accounts, tax rule and the source document attached for audit-proof records. Credit notes included.
