[UY] Bulk Upload - e-Factura

Use an e-Factura when the buyer is a business identified with a RUT. For the general upload steps and format rules, see the Uruguay bulk upload manual.

Each row in the file is one item. An e-Factura with several items takes several rows with the same Invoice External ID; repeat the document and buyer columns with the same values on each of those rows.
