Typical invoice items in landscaping
Landscaping invoices combine labour, machine hours (excavator, compactor) and materials (plants, substrate, paving). Machine hours as separate items make prices traceable. For maintenance contracts: show recurring services as a flat rate per interval — and separate the labour share for private customers (§35a also covers garden work).
E-invoicing & public contracts
Municipalities and public clients require the e-invoice (XRechnung). DasHandwerk.xhub generates it compliantly and automatically — included.
