Integrations for catering & event software

Univents works with the tools your business already runs on: accounting, payments, calendars, inboxes and your own systems via the API. What works today and what is still coming is stated here as it is.

A file or a connection — both lead into your accounting

There are two routes and they do not exclude each other. Many businesses use the connection for day-to-day invoices and the export for their tax advisor.

Route 1

File export (DATEV, BMD)

Univents turns your outgoing invoices into a posting batch file. You set accounts, tax keys and the period once, then download the file and hand it over. No connection, no outside access.

Right if your tax advisor does the bookkeeping.

Route 2

Direct transfer (Lexware Office, sevdesk, bexio)

You connect your accounting account once. From then on every issued invoice moves across with a click — with line items, tax rates and the recipient as a contact. On request accounting reports back which invoice has been paid, and customer contacts can be transferred in one go.

Right if you do the bookkeeping yourself.

Common questions about integrations

Does Univents have a DATEV interface?

Yes. Univents turns your invoices into a DATEV posting batch your tax advisor can import directly. Accounts, tax keys and the period are set in your settings. It is a file export, not a permanent connection to DATEV.

Can I transfer invoices to Lexware Office?

Yes. You connect your Lexware Office account once by signing in at Lexware, and from then on every issued invoice transfers with one click — with line items, tax rates and the recipient as a contact. On request Lexware Office reports the payment status back. Small businesses under § 19 UStG can transfer their invoices too.

Which accounting tools does Univents support?

You can transfer directly to Lexware Office, sevdesk and bexio: issue the invoice, hand it over with one click, optionally create the customer contact along with it and have the payment status reported back. For a file handover there is the DATEV posting batch and the BMD CSV export. BuchhaltungsButler is listed in the directory as in preparation — the interest button there helps us set the order.

Does Univents sync with Google Calendar and Outlook?

Yes, in both directions. Confirmed events appear in the connected calendar and changes to the date flow back into Univents. There is one shared workspace calendar plus a personal one per admin seat; staff subscribe to their shifts as a calendar feed instead.

Is there an API?

Yes. Univents has a REST API with per-workspace keys, plus an MCP endpoint for AI assistants such as Claude. It lets your own systems read and write events, contacts, quotes and staffing.

My software is not on the list. What now?

Tell us. A lot can already be connected today through the REST API or a middleware service, and providers with visible demand move up the queue.

Do I find out when an invoice has been paid in accounting?

Yes, if you switch it on. For the direct connections Univents checks hourly whether a transferred invoice is marked as fully paid there and then marks it as paid on your side too. The switch is off by default — and you should not use it together with the bank statement import for the same invoices, or the same payment is counted twice.

Does the transfer work for small businesses under § 19 UStG?

With Lexware Office, yes: invoices without VAT are created there as a tax-exempt document under the small-business scheme. sevdesk and bexio do not support that tax case through the interface — there you create such invoices manually or hand them over via the DATEV/BMD export.

Want to know whether your system is covered?

Try Univents for free or just ask us. If an interface is missing, tell us — we build in the order people ask for.
