Add a Swiss QR Bill to Any Invoice PDF in Make: A 3-Module Dropbox Workflow
· 20 min read
Every Swiss invoice must carry a Swiss QR Bill so banks and accounting software can scan and process the payment automatically. With Make and PDF4me, the addition is a three-module scenario: Dropbox Download a File, PDF4me Create Swiss QR-bill, Dropbox Upload a File. The screenshots below walk through the exact run shown in the canvas: a 10-page invoice at /pdf4metest/Files/10 page.pdf becomes a Swiss-compliant invoice with the payment slip appended and saved to /pdf4meoutput/. Production-ready in under 10 minutes.
The scenario at a glance
1. Dropbox Download a File
Reads /pdf4metest/Files/10 page.pdf. Scheduled trigger (clock badge) is shown but any trigger works.
2. PDF4me Create Swiss QR-bill
Appends the QR payment slip to the source PDF. Currency, IBAN, creditor + debtor blocks, reference filled out.
3. Dropbox Upload a File
Writes the populated PDF to /pdf4meoutput/. File Name and Data mapped from the prior step.
