Formats
Ublion supports many electronic formats in CSV, XML, JSON, PDF, Flatfile or EDI format.
An AppStore from which formats can be enabled as self-service is planned for October 2020. The AppStore will be available from both the Ublion portal and GitHub.
Ublion takes care for the document interoperability and legal requirements
Countries and industries use their own mandatory invoice format such as UBL, ZUGFeRD, Factur-X, Finvoice, EHF, Svefaktura, EITIS or IATA. This makes easy e-invoice communication nearly impossible. For example, it’s impossible to send Dutch UBL SI invoice formats to the German, Swiss, Austria or Australian governments. Or to Telco’s or airlines.
To guarantee e-Invoice interoperability we provide a format to format conversion service and integrations with industry and government e-procurement networks as Peppol or EDI. It’s our objective to offer a single point of entry for invoice conversion and delivery in the format required by the recipient, cross region and globally. Delivery is enabled in multiple ways, for example by API, email or a connected e-procurement network.
