This update brings significant advantages for both existing users and companies that have not yet implemented electronic invoicing management:
Overview of New Features
- Seamless PEPPOL Connectivity via Partner: Electronic invoices can now be received directly from the PEPPOL network. Incoming UBL-XML invoices are automatically retrieved, read, validated, and integrated into internal processes—completely without manual intervention.
- Extended e-Invoicing Processing via Partner: PDF visualization and automatic validation cover country-specific requirements and have now been expanded to include additional formats and portal requirements—ideal for international e-invoicing.
- Greater Transparency: Optimized messages during ZUGFeRD extraction provide a clearer overview of your invoices.
- Maximum Reliability: Automated tests of the XML-to-PDF conversion at server startup increase process security.
- Extended IDOC Visualization: Now includes freight cost display for even more clarity.
The server processes documents regardless of format, extracts content via OCR/ICR or XML parsing, automatically classifies them, and triggers the relevant workflows—for example, for invoices, delivery notes, or order confirmations. The results are handed over directly to SAP, while documents can be processed in parallel—without employees needing to sort them beforehand.
Benefits for Companies
- Faster, document-based business processes
- Automatic classification and routing of documents
- Unified, server-based control of all workflows
- Minimal maintenance thanks to centralized configuration
- Support for numerous formats (scans, PDFs, emails, XML, UBL-XML, etc.)
- Direct transfer into the SAP system
