Profile4

Basic Invoice Only

This profilePDF describes a process comprising only an electronic Invoice.  It is intended for situations where invoicing is electronic but where matching of the Invoice to other electronic documents may not be practicable.  The Invoice is a self-contained document with respect to commercial and fiscal requirements.

It is not a primary objective of this profile to facilitate automatic order matching and/or cost allocation; the profile assumes limited or no procurement data content and limited or no aligned and synchronized identifiers in the system to match the transaction.

This profile can be used with no or little integration to ERP systems.  It may be introduced with minimal advance exchange agreement if coding schemes are not used.

This profile may cover Invoice factoring arrangements.
