Hi everyone,

We’ve recently installed IFS Cloud 25R2 and have started testing the e‑invoicing features. During our checks, we noticed that the UBL 2.1 file generated by IFS for the outgoing invoice flow does not fully comply with the requirements of the French tax authorities.

Some mandatory XML tags appear to be missing, such as the SIREN and the invoice routing address.

I’d be interested to know whether other users have encountered the same issue, and if so, what solutions or workarounds you are considering.

Thanks in advance for your feedback!

            Hi,

             

            Thank you ​@XAIVFR and ​@Max for your feedback.

            Does It mean that the UBL file will be fully compliant with the french specifications for e-invoicing from release 25R2 SU5 onward or are there still some fields which would require the development of a transformer to complete the information ?

            What will be the released date of 25R2 SU5 ?

             

            regards,

            Alain

            A few questions :

             On E-invoicing, how the BT-22 will work ? where should it be put ? 

            What about the BT-23, BT-26, BT-8 and the BT-73/74 ? And the BT-59 to BT-61 in case we have a Payer of the invoice ? 

             

            On Lifecycle status, do we have now the amount paid included on the message ? and what about the reverse flow when we have a cancellation of the payment ? it doesn’t correct the status on the customer invoice and doesn’t send the cancellation of the status to the PA
