Insert fiscal QR code or a link to the PDF receipt in POS receipt emails and invoices

With this feature, you can display the fiscal QR code or, additionally, the link to the OpenFiskal PDF receipt in Shopify emails and/or, for example, Order Printer Pro invoices as soon as a checkout is completed at a fiscalized cash register with a customer email address.

This ensures that customers can see the legally required fiscal information (e.g., TSE QR code) in digital receipts (POS receipt emails or PDF invoices) and can open and save the complete receipt as a PDF.

Background

In Germany (KassenSichV) and Austria (RKSV), certain fiscal information must also be included in electronically provided receipts.

You can now do the following directly in the OpenFiskal app in the Settings area:

Choose between the Shopify emailor the Order Printer Pro invoice.
Generate the appropriate embed code and insert it directly into the template.
Additionally, insert the link to the OpenFiskal receipt (PDF).

Steps:

1. Copy the code in the OpenFiskal app

Go to the OpenFiskal app → Dashboard/Settings.

2. Choose the embedding type:

Shopify emails (e.g., POS receipt email)
Order Printer Pro template (for PDF invoices & packing slips)
Click on Copy Code.
A confirmation will appear: Code copied.

Note: The code is not fully displayed in the app but only copied – similar to the code snippet for the POS receipt

Insert OpenFiskal PDF receipt link into POS receipt emails and other apps:

Same steps as in 1. above:

3. Insert the code into Shopify email or Order Printer Pro template

Go to: Shopify email → Shopify Admin → Settings → Notifications
Select the appropriate email template (e.g. “POS and Mobile Receipt”).
In the email template, click the Edit Code button at the top.
Paste the OpenFiskal code at the desired location, e.g., at the top or below the payment details.
Click Preview and check if the QR code appears in the correct place in the email.
If necessary, remove the code and place it elsewhere in the email or invoice template until it is correct:

4. Insert the code in Order Printer Pro

Go to Order Printer Pro → Templates → Edit the desired document.
Insert the code in the appropriate place (e.g., below invoice details).
See the Order Printer Pro help pages here.

Some tips:

Adjust size: The QR code size can be changed depending on the template layout via the width attribute, e.g., by changing width="20%" to width="10%".
Security: Your ofiKey is specific to your store – do not share it publicly.
