As PEPPOL is gaining more and more ground as the international framework for the exchange of e-invoices and alike, in the Netherlands an additional PEPPOL ‘layer’ was developed, called SimplerInvoicing.
The SimplerInvoicing layer contains rules against blacklisting, exclusion, use of the Simplerinvoicing brand, recommendations on mass-onboarding clients in the SMP, recommendations on activating sending and receiving trading entities.
Originally set up by 7 e-invoicing service providers and 3 ERP providers, they have the ambition to make Simplerinvoicing the new standard for sending and receiving electronic invoices using e-invoicing, ERP or accounting software.
To realise this ambition, the Simplerinvoicing Foundation decided SIDN was the ideal partner to further professionalise and future-proof the administration of e-invoicing standards and the fulfilment of its governance tasks.
