Agenda

  • eInvoicing

  • Evolution of the ePO modules

Discussion

eInvoicing

  • The following points related to eInvoicing were discussed:

    • The Structure of eInvoicing can be quite complex :

      • For example, an invoice may create other invoices.

    • The core of the eInvoicing module should be an invoice from an Awarded contract.

    • It was discussed that there should be a clear eInvoicing process on the module.

    • Most important concept in the invoice: VAT.

    • PEPOL model should be referenced as a resource, but material taken from it should not be used.

  • It was decided that the eInvoicing user stories will be collected and discussed/validated in the WG meeting of 16/05/2024. This decision was taken due to the fact that tuesday WG meetings became meetings about other ePO modules and maintenance and the thursdays WG meetings will be about eInvocing development starting from 16/05/2024
