Fatturazione elettronica (EDI)¶
EDI, or electronic data interchange, is the inter-company communication of business documents, such as purchase orders and invoices, in a standard format. Sending documents according to an EDI standard ensures that the system receiving the message can interpret the information correctly. Various EDI file formats are available depending on your company’s country.
The EDI feature allows companies to automate administrative processes. It may also be required by some governments for fiscal control or to support administrative procedures.
Electronic sending of documents such as customer invoices, credit notes, or vendor bills is one application of EDI.
