5 advantages of electronic invoicing (e-invoicing)
What is an e-invoice?
With an e-invoice (unlike a PDF), a machine-readable XML data record (according to EU standard EN 16931) is created, which can be transmitted, further processed and archived in the formats XRechnung (pure data record) or ZUGFeRD (additional view PDF).
E-invoicing has been mandatory for B2G (Business to Government) transactions since 2020. EU pioneer Italy has also been benefiting from the introduction of e-invoicing for some time.
