This is xml invoicing send to peppol and then to customer (only B2B) Is someone working on a plugin? We have just one year to migrate to peppol.")* Hi, For an e-commerce solution, I understand that an integration with PEPPOL would work as follows: - The customer could select this payment method during checkout. - The corresponding payment plugin would then ask for their PEPPOL ID. - At the end of the checkout process, the plugin would generate a UBL file (using, for example, the library [ github.com/josemmo/einvoicing](https://github.com/josemmo/einvoicing) ) - The plugin would then connect to the merchant's PEPPOL access point to transmit the UBL file. - The PEPPOL network would then make the invoice available to the customer via their PEPPOL access point. The main challenge in all of this is the connection between the plugin and the PEPPOL access point. Different access points offer different APIs to transmit the UBL file. For example, here is the API for the peppol.com access point: [ api.peppol.com/swagger/index.html](https://api.peppol.com/swagger/index.html) The problem is that if we develop a plugin for peppol.com, but you wish to use another access point, it won't work. Thus, we are in a similar situation as with online payment platforms that act as intermediaries between merchants and customers: a specific plugin must be developed for each PEPPOL access point which we would want to support. For example, the Qvalia access point has developed a specific plugin for WooCommerce to interface with their PEPPOL autobilling service. In summary, I currently do not have a clear vision of what we will offer for PEPPOL by 2026. However, if it is something you would like us to develop for you, we could create a payment plugin for the access point of your choice for a several hundred euros. So, I don’t think it will be an issue to have a solution in place by then. It’s more a question of who will pay and how it will be implemented for smaller businesses. At present, supporting this on an e-commerce site requires paying a subscription with a PEPPOL access point and paying for the development of an integration with that access point if no integration is already available between the e-commerce solution and the access point. This makes it quite burdensome for small businesses. It’s unfortunate that PEPPOL has not also standardized an API for transmitting UBL files to and from access points.

Maybe it will be possible to send the ubl e-invoice to a chosen peppol access point with e-mail. You are correct, you cannot offer a peppol plugin with that many peppol access points.

Generating the UBL file and even adding it to the email notification is the easy part. The problem is the integration with PEPPOL really. But yes, as you say, you only want to provide the UBL and go through PEPPOL if the customer wants to go with it. That's why I was saying in my previous message that it would require making it as a payment plugin. That way, the customers could choose to go through PEPPOL or not during the checkout.

Once we received the payment on our bankaccount, we comfirm the order. Only then the peppol ( i hate it already,,,) invoice should be send. Ofcourse if the payment method is mollie or paypal, the order is instantly paid and confirmed and peppol invoice can be send. The reason for that is when a peppol invoice is send for an unpaid order, you cannot undo that. So for unpaid orders you always have to send creditnote to peppol. Seems like that companies in the EU with VAT number , you do not need to send peppol invoice As normal customers must not have peppol invoice (also not possibel). Only domestic companies with VAT number can receive peppol invoice. For now, I believe (correct me if i am wrong) it should be enough to generate a UBL peppol invoice, in order to send (or with api)manually to access point . (Pdf invoice e-mail must always stay.) Or maybe a standalone plugin for companies with peppol id Because the plugin will have to check the peppol id. Aldo this can be done just like VAT number check.

And yes, Scrada.be will be one of the hundreds of PEPPOL access point, each one with their own API ![:/](/irritated.gif ":/") I've looked at several APIs for PEPPOL. Many will require providing a UBL file. Some will allow the plugin to provide the details of the invoice with parameters of their API, like Scrada.be does. Some will also ask or offer the possibility to include the PDF of the invoice, like Scrada.be does. So, for some PEPPOL plugins, an integration with the PDF invoice plugin will be necessary to generate the PDF file to send to the API of the access point.

Having the PDF invoice plugin generate a UBL file will be a good start indeed. The github can't be used. It's for Node.JS on local networks. We need something in PHP. As I was saying in my first message, this for example: [ github.com/josemmo/einvoicing](https://github.com/josemmo/einvoicing) And yes, it will require extra settings. Not for the email address, but for other things.

And customers from countries outside EU have no Vat number, but maybe like to have an e-invoice. I would not let the e-invoice depend on whether there is a VAT number or not. Seems easier to always send a pdf and e-invoice with an e-mail.

This is xml invoicing send to peppol and then to customer (only B2B) Is someone working on a plugin? We have just one year to migrate to peppol.")* Hi, The plugin implements the standard Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 : [ docs.peppol.eu/poacc/billing/3.0/syntax/ubl-invoice/](https://docs.peppol.eu/poacc/billing/3.0/syntax/ubl-invoice/) This standard is made for B2B, not B2C, and UBL invoice files without a VAT number for the client are invalid per this standard. Allowing for UBL invoice files without a VAT number for the client would generate invalid UBL files which would be refused by systems compatible with that standard. I don't think it is a good idea to send the UBL file if it is invalid. Now, if this standard were to change in a future version to allow B2C, then I suppose the VAT number wont be required, and at that point we'll be able to generate UBL invoice files without a VAT number. Note also that this is applicable only to the UBL file automatically attached to the emails. If you edit an order in the backend, you'll get a new "UBL invoice" button and this button will generate you a UBL invoice file even without a VAT number for the client. However, in that case, the UBL invoice will be invalid as per the Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 standard. So the plugin is capable of doing it, if necessary. Note also that customers outside the EU can provide a VAT number (or the equivalent in their country, like a company ID or something, in the same field) and the plugin will take it into account and generate a UBL invoice for them.

I cannot test it because i do not have a peppol id yet. What i have problems with is ID issuer code. I do not find what i need to fill in for that. Could it be 0193?
