The Challenge

- Defining invoice recipients autonomously and flexibly
- Conversion from CSV to X-Rechnung

The
Solution

...is an automated process for capturing invoices (CSV data) and forwarding this invoice data to customers using various ERP solutions.

Through this solution, invoice data from Carl Henkel GmbH & Co. KG is transmitted to the sermocore platform via a CSV file. In the first step, a specially developed module extracts all recipient email addresses from the converted file. This allows the recipient to be defined individually and flexibly by the customer within their CSV dataset. The invoices are then converted into the X-Rechnungs format and automatically sent to the customers via sermocore's cloud server solution. Customers can directly import these invoices into their respective ERP systems.

This saves Carl Henkel's customers a significant amount of time and effort in invoice data entry, while also avoiding manual input errors.
