E-Invoicing

We make the most out of your invoices – just the way you and your business partners need.

EDIFACT INVOIC

Large retail chains in the food and non-food sectors have been using them for decades and have thus taken an important step towards digitalization: the electronic invoice. This promises – and delivers – enormous time and cost savings. We at Avedium had our finger on the pulse early on and have been successfully implementing EDIFACT INVOIC in the EANCOM area or other EDIFACT standards for our customers since the early 1990s.

Electronic business data interchange has been used in the automotive sector for a long time, with either the credit note or invoicing procedure being introduced into VDA or EDIFACT standards.

While this work to automate and digitalise business processes was originally geared towards the B2B market, it is now becoming increasingly important for the B2G (business to government) market within the scope of further developing business processes and integrating strategic partnerships.

XInvoice

All federal authorities in Germany have been required to accept and process XInvoices, i.e. technically standardised invoices, since November 2018, closely followed by all other public-sector administrative authorities in November 2019. For contractors of public administrations, it became serious as of November 27, 2020, as paper invoices were no longer allowed from that date.

XInvoices can be sent to public bodies by email, De-Mail or using the electronic post for the courts and administration (EGVP). However, this means more work for the recipient, which is why it is only recommended if you rarely use XInvoices.

If you send these regularly, then special transmissions protocols need to be used – mostly PEPPOL in Europe.

We would be happy to offer you appropriate solutions here.

ZUGFeRD

Do you want to be able to send and receive electronic invoices just as easily as paper invoices? Should it also be possible for you and your partners exchange invoices electronically without having first to coordinate and agree on formats?

If you have answered yes to these questions, then ZUGFeRD, a cross-industry data format for electronic invoice data exchange, is just the ticket for you. ZUGFeRD makes it possible to have a structured data flow for ERP in your PDF files. Whether you use it or not is up to you. If it is not needed, then the invoice is simply available as a PDF.

We would be happy to include this solution in our service for you, thereby enabling you to make considerable savings in your invoicing processes. We can also provide you with support for version 2.0 of ZUGFeRD.

We are the right partner for you, serving over 1,000 clients. Curious?
