Sending Electronic Documents in Ireland

As a customer in Ireland, you can send electronic documents either by email (as attached files) or through the PEPPOL eDelivery Network. Ireland has decided to use PEPPOL as a document delivery method, but this isn't enforced at the moment. Document Output supports the PEPPOL BIS 3 format, which is the latest standard.

Continia Document Output connects you directly to the PEPPOL eDelivery Network, thereby eliminating the need to sign up with any third parties for integration. Once connected, you can start sending electronic documents to your customers in Ireland and other countries. To learn more about how to connect to the PEPPOL eDelivery Network, see Setting up the Continia Delivery Network.

You can also export and send electronic documents to customers in other countries. Most widespread formats are supported, but not all. For a list of supported formats, see Supported Formats.
