Industry solution · Catering & event hospitality
Motorica is a good fit for catering and event businesses that want quotes, outgoing invoices, payment tracking and business documents in one straightforward workflow. POS systems, TSE compliance, restaurant reservations and inventory management are not included.
Motorica brings quotes, outgoing invoices, payment tracking and business documents together for catering and event businesses. It does not include POS systems, TSE compliance, restaurant reservations or inventory management.
Catering businesses need more than a PDF generator. Services must be quoted clearly, invoiced accurately and matched with incoming payments, while accounting documents stay organised for the tax adviser and tax office. Motorica brings these tasks together in one connected workspace.
The right software covers supplier documents, catering orders, invoices and incoming payments while keeping commercial tasks traceable. Motorica connects everyday hospitality work with invoicing, payments, accounting documents and tax data preparation.
Choose the page that best matches your business model. Each page answers the practical questions that matter for that type of hospitality business.
Catering teams need practical ways to price packages, deliveries and events, account for ingredient and material costs, and invoice business customers. Motorica brings these commercial tasks into one connected workflow.
Motorica connects supplier documents, catering orders, invoices and incoming payments. You can see what was agreed, delivered, invoiced and paid at every stage.
Set out product or service line items, quantities, prices, tax details, service periods and notes for catering packages, deliveries and events, including ingredient or material costs. Guests, business customers, organisers and delivery partners get a clear basis for the later invoice.
Turn an accepted quote into an invoice in a few clicks. Customer, line-item and price data carry over, reducing transcription errors and speeding up invoicing.
Quotes and invoices should reflect your business. In Motorica, you can add your company logo, upload backgrounds for quotes and invoices, or choose an existing template.
An e-invoice contains structured data and is more than a standard PDF. Motorica supports XRechnung and ZUGFeRD so businesses can meet B2B and, where required, B2G invoicing requirements.
Motorica compares incoming bank payments with unpaid invoices. When key details match, the invoice status is updated; ambiguous payments remain visible for review.
Supplier invoices, till receipts and ongoing business expenses form the basis of complete accounting records. A structured filing system makes questions easier to resolve and improves collaboration with your tax adviser.
The Einnahmenüberschussrechnung (EÜR) is Germany's cash-basis income statement and compares business income with business expenses. Motorica brings invoices, payments and accounting documents together so the relevant figures can be reviewed and prepared for Anlage EÜR.
Motorica helps structure taxable turnover and input VAT for the German advance VAT return (UStVA). The data is prepared for review, export and further processing in ELSTER or by your tax adviser; Motorica does not provide tax advice.
Instead of gathering documents and spreadsheets again at the end of the month, prepare your accounting data in a structured format for DATEV and your tax adviser. This reduces follow-up questions and manual handovers.
MIRA analyses uploaded documents, explains complex content clearly, and highlights recognised deadlines or next steps. Multilingual support helps international teams understand communications from German authorities and financial institutions.
Explore the topics that matter most when setting up your digital office workflow.
You want to organise quotes, invoices, appointments, service locations, incoming payments and business documents without switching between unnecessary systems.
You need a POS system, TSE compliance, restaurant reservations or inventory management. These functions are not included in Motorica.

FAQ
The industry overview links to dedicated pages for snack bars, kebab shops, restaurants, cafés, bakeries, delivery services and food trucks. Each page answers the practical questions for that type of business.
Yes. Customer, line-item and price data can be transferred from the quote to the invoice. This reduces retyping and transcription errors.
Yes. Motorica supports structured e-invoices in formats such as XRechnung and ZUGFeRD. A standard PDF on its own is not a structured e-invoice.
XRechnung is particularly relevant when invoicing public-sector customers. Depending on the authority and order, additional details such as a Leitweg-ID may be required.
Motorica compares incoming payments with unpaid invoices. When the relevant details match, the invoice status is updated; ambiguous payments remain visible for review.
Motorica structures income, expenses, turnover and input VAT for EÜR and the German advance VAT return (UStVA). The figures should be reviewed before submission or agreed with your tax adviser.
Yes. Motorica prepares relevant UStVA data for review and export as part of the ELSTER process. Actual submission depends on the enabled integration and your tax workflow.
Motorica can prepare accounting data for DATEV or provide structured export data for further processing by your tax adviser.
Yes. You can add your company logo, upload custom document backgrounds, or choose an existing template for quotes and invoices.
MIRA analyses documents, explains complex content in plain language, and organises identified deadlines or next steps. This is particularly useful for letters from German authorities and financial institutions.
Yes. Invoice status and bank transaction reconciliation help you distinguish paid, unpaid and overdue invoices more quickly.
No. Motorica organises data and prepares workflows, but it does not provide individual tax advice. Ask a tax adviser about specific tax matters.
Create professional quotes and invoices, then bring bank transaction reconciliation, e-invoicing, accounting data and MIRA AI into one straightforward workflow.
