Are you using SAP ECC or SAP S\/4HANA? Then you might have heard of the terms \u201c<strong>PEPPOL<\/strong>\u201d and \u201c<strong>SAP Document and Reporting Compliance<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But what is PEPPOL and what is SAP Document and Reporting Compliance (SAP DRC)? How are both technologies connected to ensure digital compliance? How does PEPPOL work and for which countries does it work? In this blog post, I will answer these questions and provide you with more information on how you can connect SAP Document Compliance with PEPPOL to ensure compliance with different country-specific legal requirements around the world.<\/p><h2><strong>Why PEPPOL is used for global electronic document exchange purposes<\/strong><\/h2><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">PEPPOL, at first an acronym for Pan-European Public Procurement On-Line, started in 2008 as a test project of the European Commission. The original goal of the project was to enable businesses to communicate electronically with any European public sector entities in the procurement process. Since then, the PEPPOL platform has been widely adopted by European governments and companies and it has evolved far beyond the original intention. Also countries outside of Europe (Australia, Singapore, New Zealand) have adopted PEPPOL, and therefore, the name PEPPOL was de-acronymised and rebranded for global adoption in October 2019. The overall objective today is to enable a secure and simple exchange of electronic documents (e.g. E-Invoicing, E-Orders) between public and private entities worldwide, by providing a set of technical specifications across purchase-to-pay business processes. But PEPPOL is not another eProcurement system. This European electronic data exchange network was designed to facilitate secure electronic transactions between buyers, sellers, and government agencies.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In this context, PEPPOL is based on three components:<\/p><ul><li>The network (PEPPOL E-Delivery Network) which provides market enablement for interoperable E-Procurement solutions<\/li><li>The document specifications (PEPPOL Business Interoperability Specifications \u2018BIS\u2019) based on the UBL (Universal Business Language) XML<\/li><li>The legal framework that defines the network governance (PEPPOL Transport Infrastructure Agreements, \u201cTIA\u201d)<\/li><\/ul><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With these components, PEPPOL provides a simplification and improvement of the onboarding process for buyers and suppliers who want to exchange electronic documents.<\/p><h2><strong>What is SAP Document and Reporting Compliance?<\/strong><\/h2><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">SAP DRC, also known as the SAP eDocument Solution, is a strategic, end-to-end solution for both SAP ECC and SAP S\/4HANA to create the e-invoices in the required country-specific XML format (many countries are covered), based on the SAP SD or SAP FI billing documents in your SAP system. With its built-in SAP eDocument Cockpit, SAP DRC provides a very user-friendly SAP-integrated environment to manage and monitor all different exchanged e-invoices per country. While SAP DRC is used to generate the required XML e-invoices, PEPPOL is used to transfer them in an automated way to the e-invoice recipient.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Within the SAP eDocument Framework, an SAP eDocument is created for each e-invoice that needs to be exchanged. This is then automatically mapped into the required XML format before it is transmitted to the invoice recipient. Since SAP is a certified PEPPOL provider, SAP has its own certified PEPPOL Access Point for both sending and receiving XML e-invoices. Once submitted, the XML invoice is sent to the SAP DRC, cloud edition PEPPOL Access Point, where it is processed and sent to the receiver\u2019s PEPPOL Access Point. At that point in time, a response flows immediately back into the SAP eDocument Cockpit, where the document is updated to the latest status.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At the moment of writing, SAP DRC provides a PEPPOL-integrated solution for Germany (XRechnung), Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway and Denmark. Currently, also other country-specific solutions (such as Austria, etc.) are being developed for later release. Please let me know in the Comments section below if you want to know if a specific country is on the SAP Document Compliance PEPPOL roadmap.
