  • Visualization and attachment of additional documents

  • SAP ArchiveLink archiving
  • Emailing or sending via PEPPOL or web service

2. Incoming e-invoices in a wide variety of XML invoice formats are automatically processed and transferred into the SAP system. Once there, you can continue processing these documents intuitively and comfortably (e.g. via the approval workflow). The workflows can also be specifically configured:

  • E-invoices that are received by email as PDF invoices in ZUGFeRD format or XRechnung format are read out using the processing server (biz²ScanServer) (individual XML parsing) and transferred to SAP.
  • The processing server processes various formats of electronic invoices (optionally, also OCR-technical).

The original invoices are archived in the archive system via SAP – customer-specific SAP workflows can be configured for the approval process. If you have any questions about our overall solution, you can contact your inPuncto team at any time.
