In many countries, large companies are now required by law to transmit tax information and invoices in electronic form to customers or to the relevant tax authorities. KSB therefore sought a central service provider to fulfill the e-invoicing requirements from the respective national companies.
Thanks to the long-standing partnership between KSB and SEEBURGER in the areas of B2B/EDI and SAP GTS (both on-premises), the decision to use additional SEEBURGER solutions was an easy one. KSB relies on SEEBURGER’s E-Invoicing Cloud Services here, as this environment is very dynamic and the services must always be kept up to date. At the start of implementation, KSB initially focused on Norway and Sweden.
With the certified SEEBURGER Peppol Access Point, invoice data is transmitted in UBL format (Universal Business Language) to the respective invoice recipients in Norway or Sweden. For this purpose, KSB provides the invoice data to SEEBURGER in IDoc format; SEEBURGER handles the conversion, communication and archiving (via partner Sovos TrustWeaver), see Figure 1.
The country solutions for Norway and Sweden have been successfully implemented and have been live since the end of 2020; further services such as U.K.-Tax and Finland in FINVOICE 3.0 format are planned for 2021. In addition, KSB will be able to generate and send invoices in ZUGFeRD format by the end of 2020. Here, KSB also relies on SEEBURGER as a solution provider.

KSB has recognized the increasing importance of Peppol.
The network will in all likelihood become the standard for national and international e-invoicing.
KSB has the following advantages by using the SEEBURGER Solution via Peppol:
The SEEBURGER E-Invoicing Solutions for our sites in Norway and Sweden master both the compliance requirements and the technical complexity. This central e-invoicing strategy forms a reliable basis for the use of further SEEBURGER E-Invoicing Solutions in this very dynamic environment.
