Sections of the Notfy Tax (NFS-e) tab
Notfy uses a partner tax issuer to transmit invoices and fetch the result. The integration stores the issuer’s CNPJ, the chosen environment and the preferences required for issuance; the taxation rules live in the Tax profiles.
Tax Regime options: MEI, Simples Nacional, Simples Nacional (sublimit excess), Lucro Presumido (presumed profit) and Lucro Real (actual profit).

Click Register Company
In the Digital Certificate section, open Register Company. Upload the certificate file and enter the Certificate Password.

In the Automatic status notices section, click Enable automatic notices and confirm. Notfy registers the NFS-e, NF-e and NFC-e notices with Focus NFe and receives the update when an invoice changes status, such as authorization or rejection.Activation can be repeated without creating duplicate notices. Even without enabling it, Notfy runs periodic checks on invoices that are still processing.
