Peppol receiving and AutoScan now available in Iceland

Icelandic companies can now receive invoices from the Peppol network through Maventa, and AutoScan is available for the invoices that still arrive as PDFs by email. Peppol is the main e-invoicing network in Iceland, with more than 11,000 Icelandic participants in the Peppol Directory. Together, these two services let Icelandic companies receive their supplier invoices in one place, whether they arrive as e-invoices or as PDFs.

Peppol receiving

Register the company to receive from Peppol in the same way as in any other country: call POST /v1/company/profiles with the network PEPPOL. When the request leaves out scheme and endpoint_id, Maventa forms the Peppol address from the company’s kennitala. If you send them, use the scheme 0196 and the ten digits of the kennitala.

The Peppol address uses the ten digits of the kennitala without the hyphen. Once registered, the company is listed in the Peppol Directory, and senders across the Peppol network can find it.

AutoScan

AutoScan reads PDF invoices sent by email and turns them into e-invoices, so they arrive in the same flow as the rest. Activate it through the REST API with PUT /v1/services/autoscan or in the Maventa user interface.

Each Icelandic company gets its own AutoScan email address, built from its kennitala, for example IS-5555555559@autoscan.maventa.com. The address can be used in two ways:

• Give it to your suppliers. Suppliers who can’t send e-invoices email their PDF invoices to this address, and the invoices arrive as e-invoices.
• Forward PDFs yourself. When a PDF invoice lands in your own inbox, forward it to the AutoScan address to have it scanned and turned into electronic format.

What Icelandic companies can do now

• Send invoices within Maventa’s network, over Peppol, and by email and print
• Receive invoices within Maventa’s network and over Peppol
• Receive PDF invoices by email with AutoScan
