4.9.8 PEPPOL Identifiers

PEPPOL (Pan-European Public Procurement Online) is a description of a set of business processes and the messages that are interchanged. These messages have formatted content rules and a technical infrastructure that distributes them. PECOS has gateways to receive and send electronic transaction messages in XML, which are then mapped to either cXML or UBL for transmission. Inbound invoices can be sent in either cXML or UBL to be submitted to PECOS’s inbound gateway.

A full description of the PEPPOL policy and guidelines for use within the PEPPOL network can be found at http://www.peppol.eu/ressource-library/technical-specifications/infrastructure-resources ("PEPPOL Policy for the use of Identifiers" refers).

PEPPOL Identifiers are provided at organisation level in Organisation Settings for use when integrating with the Elcom PEPPOL Access Point. The settings provide organisation defaults for PEPPOL external domains for purchase order and invoice messages.
