What is Peppol?
Peppol is a global network for exchanging electronic documents. Peppol offers a secure and standardised way to send and receive structured invoices, purchase orders, catalogs, and electronic receipts. In short, it facilitates the digitisation and automation of invoicing and procurement processes between suppliers and buyers.
How does it work?
Sending and receiving invoices through Peppol is safe, seamless and effortless. The data is transferred securely in a standardised Peppol BIS format through Peppol access points.
Peppol operates on a four-corner model that includes:
- C1 – Sender of Invoice (C1 sends e-invoice to C2)
- C2 – Service Provider (C2 sends e-invoice to C3)
- C3 – Service Provider (C3 sends e-invoice to C4)
- C4 – Receiver of Invoice (C4 receives e-invoice from C3)
Access points such as Maventa are certified entities that handle the invoice and document exchange on behalf of senders and receivers, by connecting them to the Peppol network.
By integrating Peppol into your service through us you get an automated solution that allows your customers to manage their entire procurement process and invoicing lifecycle from start to finish. Pretty convenient, right?
