In Switzerland, “QR-bills” replaced the red and orange payment slips on June 30, 2020.
As a creditor, you can easily issue your invoices with Swiss QR Codes using Toolcie.
Before configuring Toolcie this way, you must already have a standard Swiss IBAN. Toolcie does not support QR-IBAN (a special format reserved for the QRR reference, often issued by Swiss banks for invoicing): use a standard IBAN instead.
Once you have your IBAN, add a new payment method by going to “Settings > Payment methods”, then click on the button to add a new payment method 
. Next, activate bank payment using the switch 
and complete the IBAN field.
At this point, you have basically completed the configuration. The Swiss QR Code then appears automatically on your invoices, with nothing else to do. If needed, you can turn it off from the same payment method, in the “Bank transfer” section, by unchecking “Display a payment QR code on invoices”.
You can create a new invoice and verify that the QR code does indeed appear. In draft mode (document not finalized), a sample QR code is shown with the note “The final QR code will be generated when the document is finalized.” Once the invoice is finalized (downloading the PDF, printing, or sharing), the final QR code is generated automatically.
If the Swiss QR code does not appear on your invoice, check the following points:
- “Display a payment QR code on invoices” is checked on the payment method used
- the currency used on the invoice is the Swiss franc (CHF) or euro (EUR)
- your IBAN starts with “CH” for Switzerland or “LI” for Liechtenstein
- the company’s address is in Switzerland or Liechtenstein
- your IBAN is not a QR-IBAN (Toolcie does not support this format, use a standard IBAN instead)
- your invoice is not a credit note
