Is it possible to create and send electronic invoices to customer plateforms ?

The European standard is PEPPOL BIS for the generation of the invoice XML file.

In Belgium, my country, all invoices to public administration must now be sent in electronic format.

How to generate this type of invoice instead of a classic pdf and then send it to the customer's receiving platform ?

This modern form of invoicing will very soon completely replace the old "paper" method that is still used today. Odoo must therefore have a practical and efficient solution.

This is becoming a must have feature for us. We are looking to switch our current accountancy application to a platform that supports this standard.

Hoi Kristof,

Every HTTP request which are happening on the Peppol Network need first to go through an SML (https://github.com/OpenPEPPOL/documentation/blob/master/TransportInfrastructure/ICT-Transport-SML_Service_Specification-101.pdf) and then an SMP (https://github.com/OpenPEPPOL/documentation/blob/master/TransportInfrastructure/ICT-Transport-SMP_Service_Specification-110.pdf).

The Peppol Access Point are here to register you on a SML and a SMP, and Odoo is effectively mentioned in this list : https://peppol.eu/who-is-who/openpeppol-member-list-2/

I supposed that Odoo S.A can give some visibility on the status of each Peppol transaction which are done by their Odoo system but for the Community Version I do not know.

Let me know if I can bring others information.

There is the module account_invoice_ubl that does this. But it just generates UBL, not BIS standard (you could fork and update the addon if this is an option).

In case you use Odoo v12 or higher, I think this must be included by default, as Odoo is a Peppol Access Point. Please consult Odoo here.

I tested Odoo v13 and PDF-Invoices have the XML embedded + also added toe the e-mail as xml attachment.

I have no insight when a receiver of the invoice is also registered on Peppol as receiver, Odoo is delivering the invoice immediately on the Peppol network or not.
