|---|---|---|---|
Do you have a profile at CEF Digital? | Asked later - only 1 has an account on CEF Digital | Did not ask due to timing | |
| Do you see other areas where trainings or webinars could be of interest? | Did not ask due to timing | ||
| The European standard requires a very high level of information quality. Can this prove to be a challenge in your coming implementation? |
| 2-3 participants | |
| Validation is a central function in the European standard. Are the service providers ready for the technology? | In Sweden when where not all service providers have full control of the user input in the invoice this can cause interruption to the invoice process | Only speaker input | |
| CIUS – benefits and challenges, what is your opinion? | A Finnish CIUS is being prepared by the Tax authorities in Finland. The exact scope is unknown to the public yet. In Sweden the CIUS will be a replica of the PEPPOL profile - in other words not very restricted. Same situation in Norway and Denmark. There is a long list of codes which really isn't useful for the wider majority Do not restrict your CIUS too much since it will be a burden to your interoperability both nationally and internationally | 1 participant and speakers | |
| Two formats – do you see this as primarily an opportunity or a challenge? | In payment industry only one is working and that was just the case... What about versioning?
It can be very difficult to update the standards once implemented - that is a drawback | ||
| Is CEF eDelivery/PEPPOL relevant for you? | |||
| Has anyone here applied earlier or intending to do so in this years call? | |||
| What is your estimate for creating and implementing a CIUS? | At the CEF Digital website there is a wiki with a list of CIUS projects where you can find very good help on how national legislation can affect the CIUS and cross-border transactions of eInvoicing | Question from audience - answer from speakers | |
