BuchhaltungsButler on Oliver POS
BuchhaltungsButler receives Oliver POS counter sales through its WooCommerce connector — German cloud bookkeeping with unified online + in-store revenue on a DATEV-ready ledger.
How BuchhaltungsButler works with Oliver POS for WooCommerce
BuchhaltungsButler is a German cloud bookkeeping platform with a DATEV-compatible export layer, popular with smaller German businesses that want cloud bookkeeping without going straight to DATEV themselves. The WooCommerce + BuchhaltungsButler connector posts orders as Belege with the right SKR account mapping. Oliver POS writes till sales into WooCommerce, BuchhaltungsButler picks them up.
What BuchhaltungsButler pulls from WooCommerce
The BuchhaltungsButler for WooCommerce connector syncs WooCommerce orders into BuchhaltungsButler as Belege (booking records) with SKR03/SKR04 account mapping, Umsatzsteuer codes, and Debitoren assignments. BuchhaltungsButler then produces the DATEV-compatible export for the Steuerberater and the Umsatzsteuer-Voranmeldung.
Oliver POS sales become WooCommerce orders; the BuchhaltungsButler connector treats them identically to online orders.
Why in-store sales matter on the BuchhaltungsButler ledger
BuchhaltungsButler users are typically small German businesses who want their own cloud view of the books while keeping the Steuerberater on DATEV. The value depends on every sale being in BuchhaltungsButler — otherwise the cloud view is incomplete and the DATEV export is wrong.
Oliver POS on WooCommerce closes the loop. In-store sales become BuchhaltungsButler Belege automatically, the cloud view is accurate, and the DATEV export to the Steuerberater is correct.
How the WooCommerce + Oliver + BuchhaltungsButler sync works
The cashier rings up the sale on Oliver POS, captures the customer, tenders. Oliver writes a WooCommerce order. The BuchhaltungsButler connector creates a Beleg with the right SKR account, Umsatzsteuer code, and Debitor assignment. The DATEV export at month-end includes the in-store sales alongside the online sales.
Best fit for retailers who…
BuchhaltungsButler on Oliver POS suits smaller German retailers — single-location boutiques, indie shops, speciality food — who want a cloud bookkeeping view of their own books without giving up the standard Steuerberater + DATEV workflow.

Common questions about BuchhaltungsButler on Oliver POS
Is BuchhaltungsButler's DATEV export GoBD-compliant for Oliver POS sales?
Yes. BuchhaltungsButler is GoBD-compliant, and the DATEV export covers the audit trail required for GoBD. Oliver POS sales become WooCommerce orders, which become BuchhaltungsButler Belege, which are covered by the DATEV export.
Can BuchhaltungsButler handle multi-outlet WooCommerce stores with Oliver POS?
Yes. The connector can map different WooCommerce stores or outlets to different BuchhaltungsButler account configurations, so multi-outlet retailers get clean per-outlet booking records.
Does Oliver POS have a partnership with BuchhaltungsButler?
No. Oliver doesn't partner with BuchhaltungsButler or any other accounting platform. We support BuchhaltungsButler because its WooCommerce connector already pulls orders, refunds, taxes, and customers from your store — and Oliver writes every in-store sale into WooCommerce as a standard order, so the same connector picks it up automatically. Your accounting subscription, your ledger, and your contract stay between you and BuchhaltungsButler.
Does Oliver charge extra to use BuchhaltungsButler?
No. You pay BuchhaltungsButler's standard published pricing directly to BuchhaltungsButler. Oliver doesn't take a mark-up, doesn't insert itself into the data flow, and doesn't charge a per-transaction or per-journal-entry fee on top.
Do till sales from Oliver POS reach BuchhaltungsButler?
Yes. Every Oliver POS sale is written to WooCommerce as a standard order with the customer, line items, taxes, and payment method attached. The BuchhaltungsButler WooCommerce connector treats that order the same way it treats an online order: it posts the same invoice, journal entry, or sales receipt, with the same tax splits and the same customer record. There's no separate "POS sync" to configure.
How fast does a till sale reach BuchhaltungsButler?
It depends on the BuchhaltungsButler connector's sync mode. Connectors that push per-order (most BuchhaltungsButler integrations support this) post the invoice or sales receipt into BuchhaltungsButler within seconds of the cashier closing the sale. Connectors set to a daily summary post a single end-of-day journal entry with per-tax, per-payment-method, and per-outlet splits. Either way, no manual entry is required.
Will my in-store and online sales reconcile against one set of books in BuchhaltungsButler?
Yes. Oliver POS writes till sales into the same WooCommerce store that powers your online checkout, so by the time orders reach the BuchhaltungsButler WooCommerce connector they're already a unified order stream. BuchhaltungsButler sees one revenue feed, one tax-liability total, and one customer ledger — no manual reconciliation between an online and an in-store set of books.
