Lightbody-Europe gets more reliable invoices with EDICOM solution
Descriptif article
An 18-employee SME founded in 2002, Lightbody-Europe is the creator and European leader of birthday cakes market. Since 2005, business activities have widened to festive drinks, and since 2009 to non-residential catering and store brands. At the request of one of its customers, the company has decided to set up e-invoicing.
Lighbody-Europe has chosen to found a complete company project on this exchanges evolution. It uses the redesign of its information system to implement new EDI messages, and among e-invoicing messages. In this project it is helped by EDICOM, one of the European pioneers of e-invoicing, whose EDI solution is qualified by GS1 France, among others.
An easy transition towards e-invoicing in EDI
Today, for an average of 1 200 emitted invoices each month, 59% of them are sent electronically to three customer retailers. Thanks to EDICOM, these operations are working without any paper, in conformity to tax laws and solutions interoperability. Thus, 41% of the invoices are transmitted in EDI to Carrefour France and Auchan (i.e. article 289 bis of French Tax Code), and 18% are sent with signed EDI to Carrefour Spain (European Directive and article 289-V of French Tax Code).
These easier exchanges result in increasing reliability of Lightbody-Europe supply chain, optimized reactivity on invoice-data exchanges and better service rates. The company also notes a better organization within the accounting departments and a notable reduction of contentious invoices with the various business partners.
