---|---|---|---|
Do you have a profile at CEF Digital? | A few participants do | ||
Do you see other areas where trainings or webinars could be of interest? | |||
The European standard requires a very high level of information quality. Can this prove to be a challenge in your coming implementation? | |||
Validation is a central function in the European standard. Are the service providers ready for the technology? | |||
CIUS – benefits and challenges, what is your opinion? | |||
Which eInvoicing formats are you currently using? | |||
Is CEF eDelivery/PEPPOL relevant for you? | |||
Has anyone here applied earlier or intending to do so in this years call? | |||
Do the public entities in this country have electronic workflow support for managing invoices (paper/scanned/electronic)? | Both paper and scanned versions of invoices is handled through the participants administrations | ||
How many are connected to PEPPOL? | |||
How many here knows about EDIfact - as part of the past syntaxes within eInvoicing - ? | None | ||
Should the invoice be validated to see if there is errors in it, and can you then reject the invoice? | Yes, if the invoice is not following the rules of the standard it can be rejected or part of it can be declined. | Question from 1 participant | |
How does it work with extensions for specific markets/domains - electricity as an example - work? | The extensions is used after bilateral agreement - a seller can not require you to accept their extension, but you as a public authority could create an extension which could be required. | Question from 1 audience | |
| Yes, but it is a problem to general interoperability in Europe or across domains, since a CIUS could be a showstopper for other service providers systems which is not compliant with the CIUS. | Comment related to above | |
Does Sweden or Denmark have eInvoice examples for electricity to give an example? | Yes, it is possible to use specific versions of the eInvoice for usage within the certain domain and there is eInvoicing examples for telecom, electricity etc. | Questions from 1 participant | |
Does the standard only support B2G or could it be used also for B2B? | Yes, the experience tells us that in due time also B2B will take the B2G dominant standard and make it the mandatory standard for the private sector. | Question from 1 participant | |
