Before using the SuiteApp, consider the following:
-
This SuiteApp is only for companies in Singapore-you can't use it in other countries.
PEPPOL or the Pan-European Public Procurement OnLine, is a platform connecting businesses and agencies to exchange business documents through a secure network (https://peppol.eu/). In Singapore, the SuiteApp uses the PEPPOL standards specified at https://www.peppolguide.sg/.
PEPPOL Standard Processes
The PEPPOL standard is a template for e-invoices and credit notes on the PEPPOL network. It gives you the specifications you need to set up PEPPOL business processes.
The SuiteApp supports the following PEPPOL standards to handle e-invoice transactions:
-
Business Interoperability Specifications (BIS) Billing 3.0 specification standard
-
PEPPOL International (PINT) standard
PEPPOL International Singapore (PINT-SG) standard- This template standard is used to manage transactions within Singapore entities.
PEPPOL International (PINT)
The PEPPOL International (PINT) standard helps you manage and simplify international e-invoicing. Following are the key benefits of PINT standards:
-
This standard lets businesses exchange invoices internationally through the Singapore PEPPOL network.
-
It also makes cross-border invoice exchange easier, with customizations for different regions.
Transactions with Singapore government agencies (B2G) aren't supported with the PINT SG standard.
