More than 100 participants from Estonia, Finland and Latvia participated in the workshop held by ITL, through CEF-funded eInvoicing project and OpenPEPPOL. Presentations from Latvia, OpenPEPPOL and Finland as well as implementation section from CEF eInvoicing team was showcased. Participants was users, SMEs, banks and some public authorities.
Questions during CEF presentation:
Q: Is it not correct that the Nordic countries after introducing eInvoicing realised that it would have been better to implement other eProcurement business processes first rather than eInvoicing?
A: Not entirely; we realised afterwards that eInvoicing was just the beginning of the 10 year long trip towards full digital eProcurement. In some countries is has been more obvious to start in other places like eTendering or eOrdering, so the process the Nordic countries has been through does not need to be the right one for you.
Q: Is the Translation building block being used within eInvoicing?
A: We have not seen the reuse of translation building block within eInvoicing, but it has been used by other parts of the full eProcurement cycle - So, it does work.
