Human readable PDF download for PEPPOL & E-Invoicing

3 separate customers have asked me for the ability to download human readable PDF for E-Invoicing and PEPPOL this week. It seems the majority of our competitors have this functionality already and with the current flood of E-Invoicing Mandates throughout the world especially large European countries such as France, German & Belgium. Its a real disadvantage for us upselling to existing clients.

How will this idea be used?

It will give business users flexibility and a way to forward PDF's to small partners after tax authority approval for E-Invoicing and PEPPOL

    Thank you for sharing this idea and for highlighting clear customer demand. With increasing E‑Invoicing and PEPPOL adoption, particularly due to regulatory mandates in Europe, a human‑readable PDF is a valid usability requirement for business users and smaller trading partners.We recognize this capability as important for overall customer experience and competitive parity in regulated markets. The idea has been noted and will be evaluated as part of our broader E‑Invoicing and PEPPOL roadmap planning.


    Thanks & Best Regards
