Keep the backup in your own archive
Responsibility for storing the XML files of your e-Invoice and e-Archive documents lies with the taxpayer. File Management in Qolay.App is a free module and every company gets 512 MB of space.
Leaving documents in your provider's portal does not remove your retention responsibility.
Documents being visible in a provider's portal does not change the fact that the retention duty is yours.
The authoritative file of an e-document is the XML; the PDF is for viewing. Your backup should contain the XML and the envelope too.

Files for invoices issued to end consumers are collected in the same archive.

Companies registered for e-Invoice are obliged to store their invoice XML files themselves; this responsibility belongs to the taxpayer. A copy being visible in your provider's portal does not remove it. Retention periods and scope are set by legislation and can change over time, so it is best to confirm your own situation with your accountant.
The authoritative file of an e-document is the XML; the PDF output is for viewing. In the Qolay.App archive you can keep the XML files and envelopes of your e-Invoice and e-Archive documents together, archived where they are produced.
The File Management module is free; you do not need to buy a licence from the Market. Every company gets 512 MB and you can see your usage in the interface. Storage is not unlimited, but XML and envelope files are small, so e-document backups fit comfortably in the free space for most businesses.
Prepare your folder and send a time-limited sharing link. Document traffic moves out of chat apps and into the archive, and access closes when the link expires.
