SAP Business One is among the first ERPs to accept the new fiscal regulations
The electronic invoice is nothing more than a traditional invoice which is however produced in digital format (xml) thus ensuring "the authenticity of the origin, integrity of the content and legibility of the invoice" from its issue until its preservation, according to Italian regulations expressed in D.P.R. 633/1972, art. 21, paragraph 3.
In addition to easier control and greater reliability of the data involved, all costs for printing, shipping and storage of invoices will be reduced.
Whether it is an invoice between companies or individuals, the generated xml file must be sent exclusively through a provider accredited as an intermediary of the SDI (Interchange System) which guarantees the authenticity and integrity of the invoices by affixing the electronic signature of the person issuing the document and their replacement storage for a period of 10 years.
All ERP manufacturers have adapted to the regulations by offering integrated solutions within the management system for sending and storing invoices in electronic format.
SAP Business One, one of the first ERPs to accept the need dictated by the new fiscal regulations, manages the creation of the xml file from sales invoices and the possibility to create purchase invoices from the xml file.
