# E-invoicing

If You're still receiving most of Your invoices as PDF attachments in email, or printing sales invoices and sending them by post, e-invoicing is worth understanding. It's faster, more reliable, and once it's set up, it just runs.

An e-invoice is a structured electronic document that goes directly from one system to another - no scanning, no manual data entry, no lost emails. The invoice data arrives ready to process, which means less work for Your team and fewer errors.

### **Why it matters for Your company**

You've probably dealt with at least some of these:

* Invoices arriving as PDFs that need to be manually entered or scanned and verified
* Data entry mistakes that only surface when the accounting doesn't balance
* Suppliers asking "did you receive our invoice?" because there's no delivery confirmation
* Delays in processing because invoices sit in someone's inbox

E-invoicing solves these because the data is structured from the start. When a supplier sends an e-invoice, it arrives in Fitek with all the key fields - supplier, amounts, dates, line items - already in place. No retyping, no OCR guessing, no missing pages.

For sales invoices, the benefits are similar from the other direction. Your customers receive a structured document they can process automatically, which means faster payment and fewer questions about invoice content.

### **How Fitek handles e-invoicing**

Fitek supports e-invoice exchange across all markets where it operates. When an invoice arrives - whether through an international network like Peppol, a national platform, or a local operator - Fitek converts it into a common format and delivers it to Your environment. No matter which network or format the invoice originally came from, it shows up in Fitek looking and behaving the same way.

You don't need to know the technical details of each format or network. Fitek handles the conversion and routing behind the scenes. You just see invoices arriving in Your dashboard, ready to be processed, approved, and exported to Your accounting system.

### **Receiving purchase invoices via e-invoice**

When a supplier sends You an e-invoice through any supported channel, Fitek receives it, handles the format conversion, and delivers it to Your environment. The invoice appears in Your dashboard like any other invoice — but with better data quality, because the information was structured from the source rather than extracted from a PDF.

You can see which channel the invoice came from and what the original format was, both in the invoice details and in exports. This gives You a clear record of how each invoice entered the system.

### **Sending sales invoices as e-invoices**

If Your company uses the Sales invoices module, You can send invoices to Your customers through supported e-invoicing networks. \
Delivery status comes back to Fitek, so You can track whether the invoice was successfully delivered or if there was an issue that needs attention. More on this in [Track delivery status & fix issues](/fitek-learning-space/latvian-latviesu/sales-invoices/creating-and-sending-invoices/track-delivery-status-and-fix-issues.md).

### **Peppol**

Peppol is a pan-European e-invoicing network that lets companies exchange invoices electronically regardless of which software or operator they use. Fitek is connected to Peppol and supports both receiving and sending invoices through the network.

For Your company, being on Peppol means You can exchange e-invoices with any other company or government entity on the network - across Europe. It's particularly relevant if You work with public sector organisations, as many European countries require or encourage Peppol for government procurement.

### **KSeF (Poland)**

KSeF is the Polish national e-invoicing platform. Fitek supports sending and receiving invoices through KSeF for Polish companies. If You're a Polish entity using Fitek, the KSeF connection is part of Your e-invoicing setup and works through the same flow as other channels.

### **Expanding network coverage**

Fitek operates across Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, and Belgium. Each market has its own e-invoicing landscape - national platforms, local operators, and country-specific requirements. Fitek is continuously adding and improving connections to these networks, so the range of supported channels grows over time.

The way it works for You stays the same regardless of which channel is used: invoices come in, get converted, and appear in Fitek ready to process. When new connections become available in Your market, Your Fitek product manager will let You know.

### **What You see in Fitek**

For every invoice that arrives through an electronic channel, Fitek stores information about how it got there:

* **Channel:** where it came from (Peppol, national platform, local operator, email, SFTP, API)
* **Document format:** whether it was an e-invoice, a digitised PDF, or an enriched PDF
* **Invoice format:** the original technical standard before conversion

### **Do You need to do anything to start using e-invoicing?**

If Your company is already set up in Fitek, getting connected to e-invoicing networks is usually a configuration step handled by Your Fitek product manager. There's no separate module to install or settings page to configure Yourself. Once the connection is active, invoices start flowing through automatically.

If You're interested in enabling e-invoicing for Your company or want to know which channels are available in Your market, reach out to Your Fitek product manager or contact support.
