Introduction of QR-bill Switzerland – Accounts Payable
Brief description
The QR-bill is introduced in a company in Switzerland. The QR-bill is the Swiss financial industry's standard for machine-readable invoices. Supplier invoices are processed as QR invoices by e-mail, as PDF files or in paper form in SAP. The QR-bill contains a payment part with information about the amount to be paid, the sender and recipient of the payment, as well as details of the reason for the payment. This information is provided both as a machine-readable QR code and as text.
Supplement
The QR code supports the automated capture of invoices. Various interface technologies (e.g. IDocs, RFC interface and web services) are supported.
Subject description
The QR-bill was only implemented for Accounts Payable – i.e. in the 'Purchase-to-Pay' process. The focus is on the dialogue transactions for posting incoming invoices or for posting vendor invoices. A separate payment run must be set up. The payment is made via the house bank using the Payment Medium Workbench in the form of an XML file.
