Germany B2B: Receiver Details

You must specify the correct Receiver details for German B2B Documents.

How you specify these details depends on how you transmit the Document. You can use email/SMTP, or you can use the PEPPOL network.

Email/SMTP

If you transmit these Documents using email/SMTP, you need to specify the email address of the final recipient of the invoice.

Use the ReceiverDetails (Extn) Extension to model this information.

Example

The following example specifies an email address:

<Invoice>
    <cec:UBLExtensions>
        <cec:UBLExtension>
            <cec:ExtensionContent>
                <vrbl:InvoiceExtension>
                    <vrbl:RoutingDetails>
                        <!-- unique sender ID -->
                        <vrbl:Sender>DE123456789</vrbl:Sender>
                        <!-- unique receiver ID -->
						<vrbl:Receiver>GENERIC_PEPPOL_SMTP_DE_XRECHNUNG_3p0p1</vrbl:Receiver>
						<vrbl:ReceiverDetails>[email protected]</vrbl:ReceiverDetails>
                    </vrbl:RoutingDetails>
                </vrbl:InvoiceExtension>
            </cec:ExtensionContent>
        </cec:UBLExtension>
    </cec:UBLExtensions>
    <!-- unique document type id -->
    <cbc:CustomizationID>urn:vertexinc:vrbl:billing:1</cbc:CustomizationID>
    <!-- code omitted for clarity -->
</Invoice>

PEPPOL

If this is sent using the PEPPOL network, you specify the recipient's Endpoint ID, as described in the Endpoint ID topic.
