Invoice: Infrastructure

Invoice can be operated in different environments depending on the customer setup and operational model.

Deployment Models​

Common variants are:

  • on-premises operation at the customer site
  • hybrid environments with local and external components
  • operation in a Swiss cloud
  • demo or test environments for evaluation and training

Typical Technical Requirements​

For a local installation, the required resources depend on scope, volume, interfaces, and availability expectations. Typical requirements include:

  • Windows Server 2022 or newer
  • sufficient memory and CPU resources
  • separate storage areas for application and data
  • technical Windows user with local administration rights
  • DNS name for user access
  • SMTP access for outgoing e-mail
  • mailbox access for invoice intake
  • remote access for installation, support, or operation

The exact requirements must be checked per installation.

E-Mail Infrastructure​

E-mail components are important for automated invoice intake and notifications:

  • incoming mailbox for invoices, for example invoices@example.ch
  • credentials for automatic mailbox retrieval
  • SMTP access for outgoing notifications
  • test or allow-list mode for controlled mail delivery

In productive environments, mailbox access, sender addresses, and notification rules should be documented before go-live.
