Accounting

If you have already purchased books and would like to have the costs reimbursed with basic funding, please send us the book and the billing invoice along with an internal request form (“Anforderung”).

If purchased directly, please bill us for the cost of the literature and include your bank details. We will reimburse you up to the amount we would have paid if we had purchased the media ourselves. Additional shipping and handling fees, etc. will not be reimbursed. As soon as we have finished processing it, the book will be available for check-out and you will receive an email notification.

If you have ordered journals or loose leaf pages, which will continue to be delivered directly to you, please confirm on the bill that the journal/delivered pages were actually/will actually be delivered to you. The bill is then considered correct or “sachlich richtig”.
