PDF and Attachments

Is Including an Attachment Mandatory / Recommended ?

When you send via einvoicing networks such as Open/Peppol, what about the attachments ?

• Attachments are not mandatory
• Attachments types can be :
  • PDF of the invoice: a human readable version of the invoice allows the receiver to understand the content
  • Other Attachments can give additional information (e.g. calculation of costs, Proof of Delivery, ...)

Does Billit always send an attachment when sending in an e-invoice network?

Yes :

• If Sender includes a PDF as an invoice attachment, then this will be sent. Billit will not generate a human readable.
• If Sender does not include a PDF, then Billit will generate the PDF and include it in the delivery.

Billit is Generating a PDF, can it be edited ?

Yes. For more details see https://docs.billit.be/docs/billit-generated-pdf
