SimplerInvoicing aims to enhance the invoicing process of senders and receivers of e-invoices so that large scale adoption can be realized. This means that e-invoicing is set to become generic for consumers, small/medium/large businesses and governments.
The approach of SimplerInvoicing is to unite two apparently differently worlds: the world of e-invoicing service providers, where compliant outsourcing of the invoicing process is the core activity and the fast growing world of ‘email pdf’. In the latter world both the sender and receiver take responsibility for their own compliancy towards the tax authority through internal business controls. By bringing these two worlds into a single network, any sender can reach any receiver, through his own service provider or ERP/accounting software. They only need to exchange their address. The creation of SimplerInvoicing is sponsored by the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs.
A first implementable release of SimplerInvoicing is set to be available late June 2013, after which a pilot will be conducted in Q3 2013. This will finalize the scheme to version 1.0 for official launch in October 2013.
