SETTING THE SCENEReal person sat on train near me talking to a friend....
”this [customer] is a real [pain], I’ve posted them an invoice but it would be [damed] sight better if I could do it on my [smartphone]. I have to send them the same invoice a few times before I get paid LATE”

MY SUPPLIERS ARE SME’SSO I CAN’T DO E-INVOICING!

would make their lives easier!

WHAT IS E-INVOICING?
What is it?• Working Smart or ‘digitally’• ‘Smart’ communications• Strategy solution for trading
What isn’t it?• Just invoicing but ordering• Just PDF• Just a tactical fix

WHAT ARE THE REAL BARRIERS?
Physical thinking
• iPOD (Walkman) for music• DVD player for watching films• Phone for calls (and texts!)• Laptop for emails and internet• Tablet for Facebook and Internet• Newspaper for the news
Why? Because it’s how we’ve always done it!
Digital thinking
• Smartphone
Why not? Ummmmm. Because I already have a phone…

WHAT ARE THE REAL BARRIERS?
Physical thinking
• Buyer send PO with lots of line items• Supplier consolidates line items to send one invoice• Buyer processes each line item manually• Buyer allocates costs codes per line item• Buyer consolidates and issues payments • Supplier reconciles payments across accounts • Supplier & Buyer completes VAT information
10-15 days in lapsed time, total cost > £20?
Why? Because it saves paper and that’s how we’ve always done it!
Digital thinking
• Buyer send e-Order per ‘line’ item• Supplier e-invoices per ‘line’ item
• Automatic match of PO to Invoice• Automatic pay on approved invoice• Automatic reconciliation of payment• Even automatic VAT collection
In real-time with a total cost < £1
Why not? Because our process is based around paper and our suppliers will not move!
