Extra Fields : Supplier and Customer Contacts

Standard Behaviour

Within the Basic Json body, when sending, contact information is set as follows:

• Customer : you include contacts in the customer segment
• Supplier : this is taken from the contact information in "My Company"

Alternative Solution for Contact Information on Header Level (Income / Cost)

As an alternative, Specific API fields are available:

• What : Contact info :
  • Name, Email, Telephone
  • For Supplier (sender) and Customer (Receiver)
• Specific behaviour:
  • When these data are included in the posted invoice data, they do not update the customer data stored in Billit.
  • The contact data do only apply to this invoice
  • You can still communicatie in the customer segment the regular customer section, but the contact data in the custom fields section of the API will have priority for this invoice
  • These contact info:
    • will appear in the output einvoice file (typically UBL)
    • will not appear in on the Billit Human Readable (you might use you own human readable)
• Type of use:
  • supported : in UBL the contact details of supplier and/or customer will be filled
  • not supported : use the email address of customer to send via email
