Electronic invoicing in Panama can now happen in a single step. When you enable Automatically submit Invoices to the PAC on post in Setup > Communication > Electronic Submission, posting a domestic invoice immediately submits it to your configured PAC provider (WebPOS, Alanube, or FactoryHKA). The CUFE, submission link, and QR code are written back to the invoice in the same operation.
This is off by default. You can turn it on or leave it off and continue submitting manually with the Submission button -- the choice is per tenant.
Invoices for Customers classified as Foreign Business (Empresas Extranjeras) are automatically skipped by the auto-submit step and also no longer show the manual Submission button, since these Customers are exempt from Panama's electronic invoicing requirement.
See Electronic Invoicing (Panama) for full Setup details.
