So, this one is for everyone that believes that electronic invoicing solves all the problems that we nowadays encounter with paper invoices. And for everyone that ignores that when you automate stuff, you don’t automatically solve problems, you most probably automate them too.

The Cisco E-invoice Outbreak Alert

Cisco Security Intelligence Operations  detected significant activity related to Portuguese-language spam e-mail messages that claim to contain an electronic invoice for the recipient.

The text in the e-mail message attempts to convince the recipient to follow a link to view the invoice. However, the link directs the user to a malicious .zip file containing .com file that, when executed, attempts to infect the system with malicious code.

E-mail messages that are related to this threat (RuleID3952) may contain the following file:

boleto.zip
boleto.com

The boleto.com file in the boleto.zip attachment has a file size of 178,176 bytes.  The MD5 checksum, which is a unique identifier of the executable, is the following string: 0x5C9CD5288CCC10697DD7E3141621E182

However we have to take into account that PDF invoices are heavily used and can be the step stone to broad scale adoption of more efficient ways of exchanging data.

The startling facts of PDF as invoices

So what does this research show? Here are some observations:

• Over three-quarters of IT professionals surveyed say one of the first things they do with a PDF-based invoice… is print it out.
• [Now something ridiculous] From the 77% of the 395 respondents that print out their invoices, 16% scan the invoices right back into the system for use as……PDF attachments.
• Some 10% print out their PDF invoices multiple times.
• 10% say they print out at least one copy for archival purposes.
• Some more details:

Old school PDF versus new school PDF

Now, the said thing is that they used a plain old, very old school, PDF invoice as an example. But there are a lot of examples available of much more intelligent PDF invoices. Like PDF invoices that incorporates and XML file with all the relevant invoice. Or PDF invoice with payments buttons.

That said. And from looking at the statistics and the trends in e-invoicing, intelligent PDF invoices can pave the path to the broad scale adoption of much more efficient ways of data exchange.

ReadSoft, a leading global provider of software for document process automation, has signed an agreement worth 555,000 EUR to improve efficiency in the Accounts Payable (AP) function, running on Oracle E-Business Suite, within one of the UK’s leading food manufacturers. The agreement was signed during the third quarter of 2011.

Headquartered in the UK, with sites across Europe, this food company has chosen ReadSoft to deliver improved efficiencies within AP functions. To achieve this, the organization will immediately implement a wide selection of software tools from ReadSoft to automate invoice processing within their Oracle E-Business Suite environment, including ReadSoft INVOICES.

ReadSoft INVOICES is the world’s number one choice for automated data capture from invoices. Regardless of source, incoming invoices are all directed into the same flow, automatically extracting information from any incoming invoice, validating it and transferring it to an ERP system where it can be coded and authorized for approval by the accounts payable staff. This food company will be able to attain full control of all the supplier invoices by automatically matching and processing within its Oracle E-Business Suite, ensuring supplier invoices are automatically posted, accounted for and made ready for payment, improving visibility and management of the Accounts Payable function and crucially enhancing supplier relationship.

“Strong competition within the food grocery market demands ‘best in class’ solutions if an organization is to maintain market leadership,” says Jan Andersson, President and CEO at ReadSoft. “Retaining an efficient, economic and highly flexible finance function is a key business tool, and one which ReadSoft has enormous experience in delivering through the application of its document driven finance process automation.”

ReadSoft Professional Services and partner Dinero will complete the install of ReadSoft software. ReadSoft Professional Services will support the system installation with service and maintenance contracts through until 2016.

The North American-based organization has selected ReadSoft’s SAP®-certified invoice automation solution to streamline its accounts payable operations and enable greater processing efficiencies across the enterprise. The agreement is worth over 420,000 USD and was signed during the third quarter of 2011.

This world-leading manufacturing company sought to advance its accounts payable operations beyond the costly setbacks of labor-intensive manual processing. With high volumes of paper invoices, the accounts payable department routinely struggled to locate invoices throughout the payment cycle. These restraints made it difficult for the staff to track and process invoices and processing bottlenecks emerged, forcing the company to routinely miss out on early-payment discounts.

As the most complete invoice automation solution based on best practices, ReadSoft’s flexible, SAP-certified solution was deemed a reliable fit to meet the organization’s processing needs. With ReadSoft’s end-to-end invoice automation solution seamlessly integrated into the customer’s SAP system, the company can ultimately achieve faster and less expensive invoice processing and increased control of financial processes.

“In today’s competitive business environment, companies are re-focusing their attention on invoice processing to uncover hidden costs in their organizations,” says Jan Andersson, President and CEO of ReadSoft. “This strategy has proven successful time and again as over 6,500 companies have turned to ReadSoft to deliver substantial savings in time, money and manual routine work through automation.”

Safe and secure: sending payment requests by AcceptSMS
The new feature to the existing service allows senders to simply convert an AcceptEmail into an AcceptSMS. A short URL sends the recipient via mobile internet to the secured AcceptEmail transaction page. From this landing page the payment can be done, choosing one of the many available payment methods. The outstanding amount can be safely paid via credit card, debit card or online banking and soon also via mobile banking.

Peter Kwakernaak, CEO AcceptEmail: “Mobile payments are quickly becoming safer and widely available. More and more people are downloading apps for mobile banking and the widespread usage will be just a matter of time. Payment via social media of all kinds of bills will soon also be just as common as via traditional ways. Being a trendsetter in the world of electronic billing and payments people expects us to keep innovating and be ahead of the crowd.”

Effective communication improves customer contact
AcceptSMS can be helpful when mails bounce or stay unopened, or when the (correct) email details are not available or up-to-date. Managing your customer data will lead to more effective customer relation management according to Kwakernaak. “It gives your company the ability to match the way of communicating with your customers (or vice versa) with the information that is in your database. Companies that control and update the metadata of their customers, are able to communicate better via multiple channels, resulting in improved customer service and better results in collections. By offering modern and customer friendly payment methods through more than one channel, you can improve your customers’ payment behavior dramatically.”

Innovation, but not at the expense of safety
As much as the classic AcceptEmail that has proved its value for quite some time now, the new AcceptSMS is also optimally secured. Kwakernaak concludes: “A uniform user experience, verifiability and security are our top priority and we will constantly meet and exceed the standards of our own security framework. With this new feature we want to set yet another standard in the way that companies invoice their customers and consumers or SME companies pay their bills. ”

Basware, the leading provider of purchase-to-pay solutions, has today launched Basware InvoiceOut™, a process outsourcing service designed to fully automate key aspects of the Accounts Payable (AP) function. Combining Basware’s process expertise with the leading invoice automation solution, Basware InvoiceOut™ drives efficiencies by externally managing labor-intensive elements of a businesses’ invoice handling process. The new service helps companies achieve world- class AP performance levels in a rapid timeframe, with the lowest total cost of ownership.

Basware InvoiceOut™ is a service that brings together three core components of what are often disparate elements in an Accounts Payable operation – access to resources that can be scaled up and down based upon business need, best practice process expertise and a flexible on demand technology infrastructure. It provides businesses with access to highly skilled professionals that take over the labor-intensive and routine processes that impede agile financial decision making.

The service includes daily invoice related tasks such as dispute management to handle any discrepancies with the invoice as well as supplier engagement to ensure any disputes are resolved quickly. Invoices are validated to ensure each invoice contains the required data needed to achieve the highest levels of automatic matching to purchase orders, and monthly process reporting is proactively undertaken to ensure continuous improvement across the invoice handling process.

It offers packaged processes for speeding up the transformation from paper to electronic. This includes immediate conversion to 100% electronic invoicing, along with sophisticated automatic invoice validation, matching, posting and workflow. Non-core activities to Accounts Payable, such as the scan & capture of paper invoices and accounts payable IT infrastructure are outsourced to enable in-house teams to focus on higher value activities.

Underpinning this service is Basware’s market-leading AP technology. InvoiceOut™ includes Basware Invoice Automation – a globally recognized solution for AP automation, along with infrastructure hosting that provides a robust, easily scalable and cost effective accounts payable IT environment. Businesses using the Basware InvoiceOut™ service also benefit from gaining access to the global Basware Open Network, enabling electronic purchase-to-pay message exchange within an open environment which connects 320,000 active buyers and suppliers.

According to the 2010 Lost in Transaction research, commissioned by Basware, invoice scanning / data entry is the most time consuming (38%) and error prone (41%) part of invoice processing. 7% of invoices contain errors and managing these exceptions in-house costs companies’ time and money, and can result in late payment fees and missed early payment discounts. Incoming invoices need to be validated and in some cases invoices need to be rejected, returned or cancelled.

By outsourcing the invoice handling process, businesses can remove this often resource-heavy component, enabling in-house professionals to focus on higher-value cash management activities, designed to drive profitable growth of the business. By adopting Basware InvoiceOut™, businesses that struggle with resources and infrastructure to manage sophisticated invoice automation processes, can expect to see a rapid solution deployment leading to immediate time and cost savings and faster response times to invoice exceptions.

Esa Tihilä, Senior Vice President, Basware comments: “Since the global economic downturn, businesses have been under pressure to improve profitability and top line growth. With time and cost savings opportunities largely exhausted, companies need to look to streamlining their internal processes. Basware InvoiceOut™ is a logical extension of our service portfolio and has been designed for any mid-size or large business that is seeking an efficient and effective Accounts Payable function. Basware’s InvoiceOut™ service enables organizations to rationalize their processes, allowing their internal teams to focus on higher value activities.”

The survey can be downloaded here: http://eeiplatform.com/files/Itella-Information-survey-Invoicing-in-16-European-countries.pdf

This is are the observations of the 2010 Itella survey:

1. Every second company in Europe sends and receives at least one electronic invoice a month. Correspondingly, over 40% of consumers receive at least one electronic invoice in the same time period. However, the share of electronic invoices remains below 30%, because paper invoices still dominate the invoicing markets.

2. There are big differences between countries. In general, Nordic and Baltic countries are the most digitalized, and Eastern Europe the least digitalized. Advanced infrastructure seems to have presented better prerequisites for adopting electronic invoices. Good examples of this are Denmark and Norway, where two thirds of consumers already receive invoices through the banks’ co-operative Internet bank service.

3. Surprisingly, email invoices are used more than fully electronic invoices, which include safety solutions and payment systems. The share of sent and received email invoices is almost 20% in European enterprises, but the share of fully electronic invoices is only about 10%.

4. Easily available email offers speed and flexibility, which is needed in daily business. Email invoicing needs no expensive and time consuming invoice system implementation. It can be the only electronic invoicing channel for small enterprises, but can also be used as a complement to fully electronic invoicing solutions in

any enterprise. The typical email invoice is delivered without an electronic signature, and it is possible to send parallel paper invoices for bookkeeping or a summary on paper for the tax authorities at the end of the year.

5. Less than 10% of enterprises use transition-phase hybrid solutions. Sales invoice data are sent for printing to an outside service provider mostly in Finland and Sweden, whereas in many other countries this service is not used at all. On the other hand, purchase invoices received on paper are scanned to become electronic for further processing and approval mostly in the Nordic countries, and least of all in Eastern Europe.

6. There is a strong conviction in the speedy digitalisation of invoicing in Nordic and Baltic enterprises. Trust in digitalisation of invoices has grown remarkably in the Nordic countries where comparable enterprise results from 2008 were available for this research. A slower digitalisation prognosis with continued reliance on paper invoices prevails in Eastern Europe and also to some extent in Austria and Germany.

7. The use of electronic invoices and willingness to increase their use grows as the number of invoices increases. This is easily understandable in the case of the high variance of invoice volumes between companies, but the same is also true for quite homogeneous consumers, of whom 92% receive 1–15 invoices a month.

8. At present, almost 75% of consumer invoices are on paper, but consumers are ready to accept that in two or three years’ time the proportion of paper invoices will have fallen to around 60%.

9. Digitalisation paths for invoices are country-specific. The Nordic countries are firmly changing to Internet bank reception of invoices. In the Baltic countries and Eastern Europe consumers are now changing to email reception. However, in Eastern Europe, Germany and the United Kingdom the high preference for paper invoices is likely to continue.

11. Payment of invoices through the Internet provides a natural platform for electronic reception, and those consumers already paying through the Internet are those most prepared to transfer to electronic invoicing. Nevertheless, only 30% of Internet bank invoice payers in Europe wish to transfer to net reception.

12. Around 35% of Internet bank payers believe that the email invoice is the best option for them, and even the paper invoice is considered just as good an alternative by another 35%. However, of those prepared to transfer to net reception, most prefer just Internet bank reception. Therefore, in the long run it seems that the main current will flow in the direction of Internet bank reception in spite of the fact that the path will be long and stony.

This recent development is part of the new strategy of ISIS Papyrus to support mobile applications and will be followed up by support for Windows Mobile 7 and Symbian.

We have investigated the benefits of the Papyrus iPhone app and asked people who already employ it in their everyday business. A senior product manager at a major telecommunications provider put it like this:

“We want to offer this app both to our customer service reps as well as to a very well-defined target group of customers as a value proposition. Our staff will now have a huge amount of documents available to service their clients instantly without the need of opening and connecting their notebook first or even the need of having their notebooks with them. On the customer’s request and with proper authorization they can edit or annotate those documents and the changes will be reflected throughout the entire organization. Customers are given access to their documents without any intermediary and at any given time. But this is only part of the story.

However well designed a customer offering may be, it will fail when poorly executed. We use the advantages of the Papyrus Platform in its entirety to provide a unified experience for the customer. First we enable and promote the collaboration of cross-functional teams from sales and marketing to logistics and supplies in our own organization and with partners and we highly value any communication with our customers as a precious resource. Because it is not so much data mining and other statistic guesswork that tells you what your customers want, they will rather tell you personally if you are ready to listen to them. And we certainly are!”

On asking if they were just jumping the bandwagon to capitalize on the popularity of the iPhone he adds the following:

“This all is not just a new random offering but part of an integrated strategy of providing a service platform for highly targeted individuals. Papyrus allows everyone in the organization to understand, subscribe to and fulfill the importance of the customer experience and our commitment to make it valuable and pleasant. This is not a one-off effort but a an ongoing process which we couldn’t manage without an integrated communications platform.”

At this point he is assisted by the VP of Costumer Services who had joined our conversation earlier and points out:

“By integrating the whole communication with the customer at each touchpoint we can focus on the entire customer experience. Each interaction of the customer with different departments of our company is equally important and Papyrus gives us the complete transparency to track these interactions by providing all of our staff with access to all customer-related communications together with real-time data in a single view.”

As public authorities, the Commission and other EU administrations purchase goods and services. For this, the institutions follow procurement procedures, which lead to the conclusion of public contracts. Public contracts represent a part of the Community’s expenditure and cover several areas such as obtaining and fitting out offices for Commission departments, purchasing IT equipment, commissioning consultancy work or technical assistance.

Until now, most of the exchanges between the Commission and its suppliers have been made on paper. Invoices, as a case in point, are all sent by post mail. This is costly for the environment and handling all these documents throughout the procurement cycle takes considerable time, thus generating administrative delays.

IDABC Programme
DIGIT and DG MARKT joined forces in 2007 and, thanks to a funding of the IDABC Programme (Programme for the Interoperable Delivery of European eGovernment Services to public Administrations, Businesses and Citizens), they started an eProcurement project in collaboration with several Member States and Standardisation Bodies. Thanks to this project, the procurement process will be made electronically, thanks to a secure interface recognised by all parties.

Once a product has been delivered or a service has been provided, the Commission receives an invoice from its supplier. The first electronic invoice has now been sent to the Commission via an integrated interface using web services made accessible to the supplier. This was made possible thanks to the IT tools ‘e-Invoicing’ and ‘e-PRIOR’ designed for this purpose: e-Invoicing is one of the modules of the eProcurement suite and has gone live on 1 October 2009, following the approval of the system by the data centre in DIGIT, the product acceptance by the system owner, unit R.2 of DIGIT, and the ex-ante agreement by the Commission’s Accounting Officer.

Thanks to this system, the supplier is able to send a secured invoice and other attached documents in XML format via the Internet. The invoice is received by the e-PRIOR platform, which can then deliver the invoice to ’SYSLOG Invoice’, the local invoice management system used by DIGIT’s Unit R.2. Financial agents are able to see the invoice as any other paper invoice that would have been scanned, and can ensure the payment far more quickly. Exchanging invoices via a web interface saves paper and helps protect the environment. Since it is no longer necessary to scan the invoices and to create the invoice records manually in SYSLOG Invoice, it also lessens the number of human interactions, and therefore reduces payment delays.

Future
In the future, the eProcurement team will organise a roll-out in order first to broaden the production to more suppliers, and then to expand it to further clients within the Commission services. When other units in the Commission will use e-Invoicing, they can either use SYSLOG Invoice as a tool to manage invoices once received, or an interface will be developed between e-Invoicing and their own existing tool. The e-Invoicing module will also be interconnected with the other modules of the e-Procurement suite.

Furthermore, the e-Procurement model will be made available to be used by other administrations, and could also be applied to other areas where there is a need for sharing electronically secured and structured documents with third parties.

Environment
Regarding the environmental aspect of the projects, a study has been made by an external company showing that Belgium can save more than 15 000 tons paper and reduce its CO2 emission by 360 000 millions tons by using e-Invoicing instead of printed invoices. This calculation takes as average 900 millions invoices printed by year and a use of 50 % recycled paper.

As pressure mounts on organisations to be more “green” in their business operations and the continuous drive for greater efficiencies, eBilling is set to change the way companies send invoices to their customers. The market for eBilling solutions is expected to have massive growth in the next few years so Anachron and zumzum have forged a strategic partnership to capitalise on the UK market.

“Having reviewed over 50 eBilling providers across Europe it became very clear why Anachron is in the top 3 eBilling solution providers in Europe” explains Bashrat Din, Managing Director of zumzum. “Anachron is the only vendor that has solutions for large billers through to very small companies. The particular expertise demonstrated by Anachron in the B2B eBilling sector, the advanced set of features and the total commitment to quality of service means that Anachron is ideally positioned to increase their market share across Europe. We are very excited to be working with Anachron to increase their footprint in the UK.”

Continued Bashrat Din, “Anachron established the business in 1999 so is a survivor of the dot com meltdown, but not just survived but prospered by accumulating a very impressive set of reference customers. The investments Anachron has made in technology means that they are unique with a total set of solutions for both the Biller-direct model, which is well suited to large accounts and also the Biller-Consolidator model (Ingis) targeting the SME market. This latter solution is as a result of an investment made in Anachron by ING bank so this is an example of the very creative partnerships Anachron is capable of developing.

“From our very first contact with Anachron we have been incredibly impressed with the people at Anachron, and they constantly demonstrate a creative and flexible approach to partnering. They are just great people to be working with and we are delighted with the early results we are achieving” concluded Din.

The invoice is an important document exchanged in e-business transactions between trading partners. Its primary function is a request for payment from the customer to the supplier. The invoice is also an important accounting document and also has potential trade law implications for both trading partners.
Additionally, in the member states of the European Union, the invoice is the key document for VAT declaration and reclamation, for statistics declaration, and to support export and import declaration in respect of trade with other countries.

Started as an initiative by CEN/ISSS Work shop eBES, the European Expert Group 1 (EEG1) – Supply Chain & e-Procurement developed the Cross Industry Invoice in 2004. The first version of the Cross Industry Invoice has been compiled with contributions and submissions from: EUROFER, GS1, CIDX, EDIFICE, AIAG/ODETTE/JAMA, GHX, UK e-Government, UK HM Customs & Excise, and EDS.

In the end of the year 2008 version 2.0 of this document was published. Compared to version 1.0 a series of changes regarding the requirements and the structure were introduced. Basis for the enhancement of requirements were contributions from TBG1 members such as GS1, UBL, EDIFrance, US Department of Defense, and others.

The objective of this document is to standardize the business processes regarding (e-) in the supply chain.

The importance of the CEN/ISSS Workshop deliverables
The Adobe whitepaper shows once again the importance of the deliverables of the CEN/ISSS Workshop deliverables. At this point the Workshop is in its second phase, having delivered at least one groundbreaking deliverable: the Draft Good Practice Guidelines. These guidelines are available here, here and soon on www.cenfiscalesguidelines.com Some groups with other interests on e-invoicing do not quite agree with these Guidelines. But we arguably can not ignore the fact that this is a serious attempt to remove one of the major barriers on e-invoicing: uncertainty on e-invoicing.

Intelligent PDF: removing barriers?
The intelligent PDF approach presented by Adobe could also serve as a mean to remove a barrier to e-invoicing: adoption in a B2B environment.

E-invoicing is acknowledged to be an unstoppable innovation across and outside Europe. Taking a leap in the future, full scale e-invoicing would mean that the vast majority of organisation is not only sending e-invoices, but also –and this very important– receiving e-invoicing.

One of the results from a major survey conducted by e-business watch showed that most of the companies prefer to receive e-invoices per e-mail in PDF. This is not the answer that some of the BSP would like to hear. But it clearly shows that receivers are in need of control over the inbound e-invoice.

The intelligent PDF approach of Adobe does just that. It combines the humanly interpretable PDF with a for computer systems readable XML format. So now we can receive and read the PDF invoice and having established the perception of control over the e-invoice, we can now extract and import the XML data into our financial software.

This enables e-invoicing between business partners regardless of size, sector, business processes and accounting software. If in fact the intelligent PDF approach guarantees compliance with the respective national VAT legislation, it would also be usable in cross border e-invoicing.

Intelligence in authenticity and integrity?
Interestingly enough, the Adobe intelligent PDF whitepaper mentions the possibility to sign the PDF document. So the PDF document is the format that is being used for formal validation. The invoice’s XML data can be submitted for material validation against external documentation such as supplier contracts. E-invoices archived in PDF/A guarantee the fidelity of the invoice, while the use of XML ensures that invoice data can be transformed to any format required by auditing software.

Maybe it is also interesting to use the XML data for formal validation. This would implicate that not only the PDF document is signed, but also the XML file, for instance with XADES or XMLDSIG. Then, the XML feed can also be used for formal validation even when archived. Additionally it would be very interesting for SME’s to use the PDF document for material validation.

So, the Adobe intelligent PDF is more intelligent compared to the plain old PDF docyument. We can expect it to have an impact on removing the barrier of awareness, including the aspect of adoption by have the perception of being in control. And maybe the approach can be made even more intelligent by incorporating XML signing. This would be very interesting because then it would not matter which document is being used for formal validation: PDF or XML, or both. Creating ease of use (which will be explained in the next Featured Article).

Under the agreement, Ecotricity’s domestic customers can now use OneVu’s unique service to view and pay their bills through the secure environment of their online bank, whilst contributing to an initiative that reduces carbon dioxide emissions and lessens the pressure on natural resources.

Ecotricity’s main focus is building new green energy sources, and in 2007 alone, the company invested £25 million in wind energy. This figure, equating to over £550 per customer, is more than 100 times the national average when compared to other UK electricity suppliers. To achieve and increase such levels of investment, the company is committed to streamlining business process and reducing overheads by identifying and using cost-effective and responsible solutions such as the OneVu service.

The OneVu service is free for consumers to use and offers a convenient and secure access to a large and growing number of biller websites, saving the consumer time and providing a greater control of personal finances. For billers there are significant savings to be gained through the reduction in processing and postage of paper bills, a decrease in call centre costs and reduced debtor days.

Ecotricity founder Dale Vince commented: “OneVu provides an ideal service for us – a big step on the way to a fully online retail offering. Our customers are already fighting climate change with their electricity bills … taking their actual bills online will reduce the environmental impact of our supply operations and help us on our way to becoming a Carbon Zero business”.

Miles Quitmann, CEO of OneVu, said: “Ecotricity joins over 30 other major billing organisations who have already signed up to our service, particularly in the utilities sector where more than 75 per cent of companies in the UK now use the system.”

One of the most interesting presentations of the day was given by the event organiser, Bruno Koch of Billentis. Bruno presented what he termed to be an alternative and more pragmatic model for e-invoicing service provision and called it “Model B”.  According to the research conducted by Billentis, e-invoice volumes are dominated by the small-medium and consumer sectors. The table below illustrates the spilt of invoice volumes according to organisation size.

In total, about 81% of invoice volumes are exchanged in the small-medium and consumer sectors and in these sectors the predominant format is PDF. Bruno argues that operators should provide better services to capture invoices as documents, to use PDF as the primary e-invoice format with EDI/XML data provided as an additional service.

In “Model B”, the operator accepts real documents (e.g. Word, PDF, etc.) from the sender and delivers the document electronically to the recipient in a manner which is secure and compliant with the tax laws. As an additional service, the operator also extracts the data from the document and delivers the data in a format suitable for the recipient.

Providing services that most parties find easy to understand, access and use is the only way operators can drive mass adoption.

Interestingly, this is exactly the mechanism used by Accountis with its ebPrinter technology. With Accountis, anybody that can print an invoice, can send an e-invoice.

ID-card was used by four out of ten enterprises with Internet connection. ID card was used mostly for giving digital signature and for authorising users in information systems. The most active users of ID-card were the enterprises of financial intermediation; two thirds of them used ID-card.

The general trend of reducing the paperwork has increased the interest of public authorities in websites. The enterprises download more and more forms and return them via Internet. Over three quarters of enterprises downloaded forms and two thirds returned them via Internet. Two thirds of enterprises had their own websites.

In January 2008, 97% of enterprises used computers; 99% of them had also access to the Internet. These indicators have not changed much during the last five years. As before, most of the enterprises needed the Internet for banking and financial services; fewer enterprises used the Internet for training and education purposes. The most popular type of Internet connection was DSL broadband connection, used by three quarters of enterprises. Other types of broadband connection, such as cable TV, leased lines, etc., were used by two out of ten enterprises. Non-broadband connections (dial up, ISDN, mobile Internet) were used less and often in combination with broadband connection.

Statistics Estonia has surveyed the use of information technology in enterprises since 2001. In 2008 3,500 enterprises participated in the survey. The survey involves enterprises with 10 and more employees. The usage of information technology in enterprises is studied by statistical organisations in all European Union Member States on the basis of harmonised methodology.

But there are two factors at work today that are making paper-free operations (e-invoicing) much more feasible:

• The cost of the necessary technology is decreasing
• Companies’ interests in cutting costs, with suitable ROI, is increasing

The payoff is handsome, according to a recent Aberdeen study.

Best-in-class purchasing operations realized these benefits:

• 91% savings in processing invoices
• 46% trimmed from process cycle time
• 12% drop in late payments, and
• 30% decrease in time responding to inquiries

Need some ammo to make your case with the execs?

There’s a combination of “out with the bad, in with the good” examples that’ll help draw a clear picture of the ROI that can be gained from making steps further into electronic payment processing.

Companies that putting electronic payment systems into practice are reporting great improvements in these common problems:

• Long billing cycles. Paper creeps through the mail and through A/P and A/R, often adding up to days or even weeks. That’s without even factoring in lost documents, filing errors, etc.
• Fraud. Paper documents are much easier to alter or substitute. Changes in electronic billing documents leave a trail.
• Visibility. Need to know the status of a transaction? Good luck if it’s on paper. Electronically, it’s just a couple of button punches away.
• Accessibility. One copy of paperwork, one person can use it. What if someone else needs to see it? If it’s paper, it means making copies — which opens the door to problems. If it’s available electronically, everyone can see it at once.
• Storage. Look at the pile of paper you generate every week, and where you have to store it. Ouch. Electronic documents are stored on top of your desk, without the mess.
• Going green. You’ll also do the world a favor by reducing the amount of paper your company consumes.

The inspiration for the Summit was PayStream’s consulting, research reports, and one specific study our research division has been conducting for the last several months regarding the state of AP automation in U. S. companies. The findings were unveiled at the Summit and the eInvoicing Adoption Survey Report released this week. LINK

Common themes emerged from the conference delegates. Many admitted that imaging and OCR were great first steps, but they found it was time to take their AP departments to the next level in automation and to begin exploring advanced options like electronic invoicing.

Organizations just getting started on the path to automation expressed relief when they discovered many of the options that technology providers offered could be tailored and implemented a la carte. You don’t have to automate the entire process all at once.

Of course, everyone wants to know how to make the implementation process a success, but making that happen depends on variables, often times out of your control. This was addressed in the morning panel discussions when panelists offered anecdotes for how to be successful.

The moral of the stories was: 1. Executive sponsorship and cross departmental collaboration is key. You need all departments on board and you need your executive leadership to fully understand and support the project to have any chance of automating your accounts payable, and 2. Take time prior to implementation to get an accurate estimate of the current state of your payables, even if this means stretching your timeline an additional 3-6 months.

And the question addressed most often; how do we get our suppliers on board? The answer was a unanimous recommendation to approach your vendor pool with an air of collaboration and be willing to work with individual vendors who may be on separate platforms. Often times, a solution provider will handle supplier on-boarding for you.

Now, getting back to the survey results from the PayStream eInvoicing Adoption Survey Report. Amid all the findings, we see most clearly that paper is on the way out and it’s on the way out fast. By 2010 we anticipate electronic invoices exceeding the number of paper invoices processed by Fortune 500 companies in the U. S.

The fact that Finland is still in last place in consumer e-invoicing can be considered a blemish on our society’s reputation. We compare favourably with regard to b-to-b e-invoicing, meaning that we have all the technological tools to replicate that success in the consumer sector. Finnish people seem to think that being able to pay their bills through their online bank is quite enough. The majority of consumers still receive hard copies of their invoices, while too few people even contemplate receiving e-invoicing. But does the underlying reason lie in our not having been sufficiently proactive in motivating consumers to switch to e-invoicing? asks Director Miikka Savolainen of Itella Information Oy.

According to the survey, consumers in the Nordic countries and Germany receive roughly the same number of invoices ? around 7 to 8 per person monthly. Hard copy is still the most common invoice format, with the exception of Denmark. In all of the countries, however, hard copies’ share of all invoices has decreased since 2006.

Denmark is in a class of its own with regard to e-invoicing. Only 32 per cent of Danish people nowadays report that they receive their invoices primarily in hard copy format. In the other countries around 75 per cent of consumers receive their invoices primarily in hard copy format. The Danes receive their e-invoices through both the online bank and invoice issuers’ websites or invoice and e-commerce portals.

The Danes can be considered trailblazers in consumer e-invoicing, while Finland and Germany lag behind. In Finland, the number of consumers requesting a hard copy invoice has been decreasing since 2006. Presently, 86 per cent of Finns receive their invoices in hard copy format, but in the future, 50 per cent of Finns hope to receive hard copies of their invoices. In Sweden, the number of people preferring hard copies has remained constant. In Germany, as many as 65 per cent of consumers would like to receive their invoices as letters in the future as well, says Savolainen.

The Finns and Danes exhibit contrasting conduct with regard to payment, too. In Finland, online banking is commonly used for payments, while few invoices are received there. Danes commonly receive reminders of their due invoices through an online bank, but favour direct debiting.

The Danish infrastructure makes the switch-over to e-invoices easy for consumers. Direct debiting, common in Denmark, also supports a switch-over to e-invoicing. These factors at least partly explain why Denmark is ahead of us. We have similar experiences in Norway and Estonia, says Savolainen.

Businesses transition towards e-invoicing ? the large followed by the small
In Finland, almost 80 per cent of large companies plan on sending the majority of their invoices in electronic format within 2 to 3 years. Among SMEs, Finnish ones are the most eager to make the switch to e-invoicing. Some 78 per cent of Finnish SMEs believe that they will be solely or partially using e-invoicing within the following 2 to 3 years.

According to our survey, almost all businesses and organisations intend to make the switch to e-invoicing in the forthcoming years. The only exception is Germany, in which only 65 per cent are considering this. The underlying reason for Finnish businesses’ enthusiasm for e-invoicing is the desire to achieve time and cost savings through this invoicing method, Savolainen states.

Finnish businesses to refuse hard copy invoices in the future
Some 75 per cent of large Finnish companies are receiving e-invoices at the moment. Denmark can equal these numbers, while other countries have not advanced this far.

Finnish businesses will be adopting a zero tolerance policy in the near future. Not even one of the respondents believed they would be exclusively receiving hard copy invoices in a few years. In Germany, on the other hand, little progress is expected, since even 42 per cent of the major corporations believed they would be receiving all their invoices in hard copy format, states Savolainen.

According to the survey, Finnish SMEs will be switching to e-invoicing in a more pronounced fashion than elsewhere.

Enthusiasm for switching to e-invoicing in the coming years runs high among small businesses, too. In Finland, more than half of SMEs expected to receive their invoices exclusively or almost exclusively in the e-invoice format in a few years, Savolainen explains.

I was disappointed to find that one of the conclusions implies that electronic signature is seen as a barrier for further development of the electronic invoice, and a feature that some of the members of the expert group see as superfluous feature.

In my opinion, electronic documents need ways to reinforce security to allow to tell apart fake documents from authentic documents. Ths is generally true even for informative documents with less impact on companies results.

It is also true that electronic signature is not the only way to reinforce security regarding autenticity of documents. For example, a document can be assumed to be authentic if it is retrieved from a trusted source, even if it is not completed with an electronic signature. But then we must define what are the requirements of such “trusted sources” to keep that assumption.

On the other hand, both approaches, electronic signatures and reference or trusted sources (which in turn frecuently are based in electronic signature derived schemes) need more precise definition to avoid lack of interoperability, which, in my opinion is the real barrier for electronic invoice wide deployment.

Some common authenticity mechanisms are required both for electronic invoices (those that are born electronically from the beginning) and for invoices certified scanning (invoices digital copies that become equivalente to an original, after a security mechanism has been added to a common scanning).

This approach, “certified scanning”, has been initiated in Spain with high success.

Certified scanning is a process in which an electronic signature is applied to a image file while it is scanned from a document paper. This image is stored in a secured database and the main concepts and terms of the paper document are added as metadata to the contextual fields of the image file in the database.

Once a paper document is “certifiedly scanned” the digital copy becomes equivalente to an original, and the paper source can be destroyed. The new “electronic original” can then be used for auditing purposes.

For the companies that receive thousands of invoices, “certified scanning” adoption imply benefiting from most of the advantages of the electronic invoice without dealing with the slow adoption pace that their suppliers could show.

If we want to support “certified scanning” we need a common definition of the requirements for that conversion. And they should not be very different form the requirements for “electronic invoices” .

If we accept authenticity mechanisms not based in electronic signature, they should be common for both approaches. And if electronic signature is still to be used in the future as the authenticity mechanism of the electronic invoice, the broad options in variants should be reduced and clearly defined (in my opinion, the XL definition of CAdES -TS 101 733- or XAdES -TS 101 903- should be used, including both validation and timestamping, from the signer side).

The bank is implementing Oracle’s Distributed Document Capture technology to facilitate the electronic capture and management of a broad range of critical business documents including loan applications, financial statements, invoices and checks.

Oracle says the Web-based system provides scalability, easy administration, support for multiple input devices. The bank will benefit from faster document cycle times, improved regulatory compliance and records management, more automated business processes and better access to information.

Commenting on the implementation, Trevor Salt, manager, distributed document capture, JPMorgan Chase, says: “Oracle Distributed Document Capture is designed to help us increase efficiency and gain tighter control over records for compliance requirements.”

The system will initially will be rolled out to more than 750 US users at JPMorgan Chase. By the end of 2009, more than 3000 employees across the US, Europe, Africa and Asia are expected to be using the software.

The study will produce a selection tool to generate scenarios for the organisation of the e-invoicing infrastructure. The selection tool will take account of such considerations as organisational aspects (whether the work is done in-house or outsourced), security (the authenticity and integrity of the invoice) and invoice validation and transformation.

The project will run for ten weeks, with the final report being presented to the Ministry in mid-August.

The combined offering provides a complete procure-to-pay solution that supports settlement using a MasterCard payment card account or electronic funds transfer (EFT).

Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: AAWW), a leading provider of global air cargo assets and services, is the first company to utilize the integrated capabilities of the MasterCard Payment Gateway and iPayables.

“We manage and operate the world’s largest fleet of 747 freighter aircraft, providing a unique value proposition to our customers through highly reliable, cost-efficient assets and operating services,” said Joseph Lopez, Sr. Manager, Indirect Procurement for Atlas Air. “Similarly, the MasterCard Payment Gateway is a highly reliable, cost-efficient service that will streamline the process for paying our suppliers, saving time and money for us and our vendors.”

First introduced in October 2007, the MasterCard Payment Gateway is a flexible enterprise-wide payment processing platform for routing commercial payments between buyers, suppliers and their financial institutions. iPayables is the first non-bank reseller whose functionality is coupled with the MasterCard Payment Gateway, creating an end-to-end solution that offers companies a more streamlined, faster and secure way to make payments.

“The combination of iPayables’ electronic invoicing capabilities with the MasterCard Payment Gateway provides Atlas Air with one efficient and secure B2B payments solution,” said Shari Krikorian, vice president, Advanced Payments, MasterCard Worldwide. “By managing multiple payment types, the MasterCard Payment Gateway is simplifying the historically inefficient, check-dominated process of payment, and solving corporations’ growing demand for straight-through processing.”

Using the MasterCard Payment Gateway, a buyer can initiate payment card and EFT payments directly from its financial system to the banks of its suppliers. Remittance data is provided to both the buyer and supplier to speed up reconciliation processes. No account information is shared between the buyer and supplier, and the supplier does not need to use a point of sale device to originate payment.

“The MasterCard Payment Gateway expands our electronic invoicing capabilities and enables us to provide our customers with a complete payables solution that delivers increased efficiencies for all of their commercial payments needs,” said Ken Virgin, CEO, iPayables.

The modular nature of the MasterCard Payment Gateway also provides financial institutions with an enterprise-wide electronic solution that they can re-brand and make available to their corporate customers, or integrate into their current product offerings to enhance their functionality and efficiency. This can enable them to increase payment volumes without building infrastructure, potentially grow profits with additional fees, deepen customer relationships and differentiate from the competition.

Suppliers that process payments with the MasterCard Payment Gateway enjoy automated payments with straight-through processing, decreased paper check processing costs, automated reconciliation via enhanced remittance information for common payment types and preference among buyers that pay electronically.

Buyers that rely on the MasterCard Payment Gateway can drive efficiencies by streamlining their payment options, integrating with existing accounts payable processes and can potentially save money by enabling one connection. Through this method/gateway, buyers can have one streamlined total payables solution that can help them increase productivity, enhance security and increase profits.
