Basware, an e-invoice solution provider, has fine-tuned all of
its internet-based solutions with the
standards of the Pan-European Public Procurement Online (PEPPOL)
initiative.

The implementation of PEPPOL will enable Basware clients to
transmit e-invoices and documents to organisations within Europe in
accordance to with the initiative standards.

“As a supplier, it is essential to be PEPPOL compliant to meet
customer demands. When sales and invoicing processes are
harmonised, it makes the relationship between buyer and supplier
mutually beneficial and opens up new business opportunities,
particularly against our competitors that may not yet be
compliant,” said Pekka Leppälä, sales director at Staples, one of
the Basware clients using PEPPOL e-invoices.

Esa Tihilä, Basware CEO, said: “Basware believes in openness and
collaboration between all parties across trading networks. The
support we have provided to the PEPPOL initiative is based on
recognition and understanding of the importance in providing an
EU-wide standard for electronic document exchange upon which
organisations can rely to automate their P2P processes.”

The new Basware solution comes three months before the Norwegian
Government will make PEPPOL compliant e-invoicing compulsory.

This will make PEPPOL the “backbone of public electronic
invoicing in Norway”, according to the Agency for Public Management
and e-Government (Difi).
