About IP Directions & DATEV
IP Directions
IP Directions is a portal for trademark and patent management, through which invoices for IP rights services and administrative fees are generated. These documents must reliably reach accounting. Automated processing eliminates manual downloading and significantly speeds up receipt capture.
DATEV

Its software for accounting, tax and payroll is widely used by tax advisors, auditors and the businesses they work with across Germany.
