Basic Billing with Dispute Response
This profile
describes a process comprising an electronic Invoice and, potentially, an electronic Application Response and an electronic Credit note. 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 and Credit Note are self-contained documents with respect to commercial and fiscal requirements.
In this profile, Application Response is a business level response used only to notify a disputed Invoice or Credit Note.
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.
Large parts of the Invoice may be expressed as text rather than identifiers and codes e.g. the Invoice may contain Items (goods or services) with Item identifiers and Items with free text description.
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.
