Electronic Invoicing made easy

Help your suppliers to deliver electronic invoices to you.

If your supplier could create an electronic invoice in 5 seconds with NO new investment in technology and minimal training would that be an assistance to you and them?

If the answer is NO, sorry to have wasted your time.

If the answer is YES, here are the steps to follow:

1. Send and electronic order to your supplier. This order will be an XML document and it does not matter what XML standard you use.
2. Your supplier receives your electronic order as a document they can action just as if it had been received by e-mail, fax or post. So, no change for your suppliers.
3. The electronic order is stored in a secure area only accessible by your supplier so they can refer to it when they need to create an electronic invoice.
4. Supplier fulfills the order and now needs to create an invoice. They refer back to the stored electronic order and with "one click" create an electronic invoice and press SEND.

Job done!

This routine task is made easy where the buyer provides their suppliers and electronic order and this document is used to create the electronic invoice.

You get what you give!
