Agreement with Digital Cab

Peppol documents are sent and received in Uniconta via our partner Digital Cab. A separate agreement must be made with Digital Cab (through Uniconta) in order to exchange Peppol documents. Digital Cab has a start-up price + a voucher scheme per document sent/received. Uniconta has nothing to do with this charge. It is an agreement between the customer and Digital Cab. Contact Uniconta support to be set up with Digital Cab.

Debtor setup

Here is a description of how to set up a debtor for invoices to be sent as a Peppol. The recipient (customer) must be registered in the Peppol register in order to receive Peppol invoices. The customer can be registered with a GLN number and/or a CVR number (organization number). Via this link you can find recipients in the Peppol network. The link can be found here. Customers can be registered in the Peppol register with a GLN number or a CVR number (organization number) In the 'e-invoice' field, Peppol sending is activated for the individual customer by selecting Peppol. Note: If "Email to Invoice" is filled in, an invoice in PDF format is sent at the same time.

Debtor setup (Lithuania)

SE numbers can also be used for customers receiving e-invoices in Lithuania. In Lithuania, the SE number will be the LEC (Legal Entity Code). The active EndPointId will be found according to the following prioritization:
  • GLN number
  • SE number
  • CVR number
On the debtor below, the active EndPointId will be SE number, as GLN number is not filled in.  

Log

A note will be written in the log when Peppol is shipped. Type=Peppol. The recipient address will always be UDDI:http://login.digitalcab.dk/RASP2/OIOWebservice.svc. In the 'Sent to' field you will be able to see the EndPointId that is sent to. Note: Unfortunately, we are not able to check if the specified Peppol EndPointId exists in the Peppol registry. This means that documents may be rejected at Digital Cab if the recipient address does not exist. In the current solution, a message will not be returned in Uniconta, but an email will be sent to the person or persons registered as a contact at Digital Cab. Note: We cannot prevent customers from sending Peppol documents without an agreement with Digital Cab. Documents will be sent, but will never reach the recipient as it requires the sender to be registered with Digital Cab. They will also not be notified as Digital Cab does not know them.  

Receiving Peppol documents

It is also possible to receive Peppol documents. This simply needs to be activated at Digital Cab and you must also be registered in the Peppol register. DigitalCab helps with the registration in Peppol. In addition, you must be registered in the Nemhandelsregisteret in order to receive documents. See more here

Validations

CVR number (VAT number) Receiver (debtor) and Sender (company details) must have a valid CVR number in order to send Peppol. The sender/recipient CVR number is validated when sending Peppol. The following validations are available: Danish customer CVR number = 8 digits Number is enriched with the prefix value 'DK' before sending Ex. DK33266928 Swedish customer CVR number = 10 digits Number is enriched with prefix value 'SE' and postfix value '01' Ex. SE212000115701 Norwegian customer CVR number = 9 digits Number is enriched with prefix value 'NO' and postfix value 'MVA' Ex. NO964965226MVA Finnish customer CVR number = 8 digits Number is enriched with the prefix value 'FI' before sending Ex. FI14664949 Lithuanian customer CVR number = 12 digits Number is enriched with the prefix value 'LT' before sending Ex. LT100007844014  

Payment Means (Payment Means)

In a Peppol document, only one payment method can be specified, either Bank account/bank name or SWIFT/IBAN. If more than one payment method is specified, sending Peppol will fail with the message "Only one payment method is allowed. This invoice has x payment methods". The payment methods are either listed under Company details or a Layout group may have been created in the 'Bank accounts' section. One solution could be to create a Layout Group with only one payment method.  

Danish company VAT registered in Norway

If a Danish company is also registered for VAT in Norway, you typically want to send the invoice from the Norwegian VAT number when trading with a Norwegian customer. Note: this is only relevant if you want to send from a Danish registered Uniconta account. If the invoice is sent from a Norwegian registered Uniconta account, you do not need to do the following. This can be solved in the following way using the Layout group. In order to use a VAT number other than the one listed under Company information, a Layout group must be created and specified on the Norwegian customers or directly on the Debtor group for Norway. There is logic in the Layout Group name itself. Peppol#<Country code>#<VAT number>#<Payment method> The name must always start with 'Peppol' and the character # must be inserted as a separator. All information must be filled in for it to work. Country code Country code = NO must be entered here VAT number Here you must enter 9 digits, which is a Norwegian organization number. Payment method Here you can choose between BBAN, BBANKidNo or IBAN. If BBAN or BBANKidNo is selected, an account number must be entered in the Bank account field. If IBAN is selected, Swift and IBAN must be entered Below is an example Note: The Norwegian sender company must be registered with Digital Cab for sending to take place.

Danish company VAT registered in Sweden

If a Danish company is also registered for VAT in Sweden, you typically want to send the invoice from the Swedish VAT number when trading with a Swedish customer. Note: this is only relevant if you want to send from a Danish registered Uniconta account. If the invoice is sent from a Swedish registered Uniconta account, you do not need to do the following. This can be solved in the following way using the Layout group. In order to use a VAT number other than the one listed under Company information, a Layout group must be created and specified on the Swedish customers or directly on the Debtor group for Sweden. There is some logic in the Layout Group name itself. Peppol#<Country code>#<VAT number>#<Payment method> The name must always start with 'Peppol' and the character # must be inserted as a separator. All information must be filled in for it to work. Country code Country code = SE must be entered here VAT number Here you must enter 10 digits, which is a Swedish organization number. Payment method Here you can choose between BBAN, BankGiro, PlusGiro or IBAN. If IBAN is selected, Swift and IBAN must be filled in Below is an example Note: The Swedish sender company must be registered with Digital Cab for sending to take place.
