VRBL uses the following elements to determine where a Document is routed:

• Unique Sender ID
• Unique Receiver ID
• Specification IDs

This topic describes how to model the first 2 of these. Specification IDs are explained in the France (CII(AR)): Specification ID topic.

For service invoices, VAT is collected when payment is received by default. This is why the government requires information on when a company receives payment for such invoices, unless the company opts for VAT on debit. In that case, VAT is collected on invoice issuance, so payment receipt does not need to be reported.

That means that for any lifecycle message reporting a payment received status (status 212 - encaisée), it is mandatory to include the vrbl:ForwardDuplicateIndicator extension located at the XPath ubl:ApplicationResponse/cec:UBLExtensions/cec:UBLExtension/cec:ExtensionContent/vrbl:ApplicationResponseExtension/vrbl:RoutingDetails/vrbl:ForwardDuplicateIndicator to mark if the lifecycle message must be reported to:

• The PPF and the external PA (vrbl:ForwardDuplicateIndicator = true)
• Only to the external PA (vrbl:ForwardDuplicateIndicator = false)

Elements

Use the following elements to model this information:

                        true: report to PPF and PA 
                        false: only send to PA (but not report to PPF) -->
