RE: [ubl-dev] Using Invoice for other document types? - CCI-UBL My Wrong.

["Joel Paula" <jp@scientia.pt>]

Hi Oriol,

I was wrong. Reading all the details about the "Factura Rectificativa" it
states this is an invoice that substitutes the previous Invoice that had an
error. So your using of it is semantically correct.
So, that part of my message should be corrected.

Thanks for your response.

All the best,

Hi Joel,

CCI UBL is focused on the Invoice. It has not been the intention of this
project to customize the order or other documents from the eProcurement
cicle. Nevertheless, when trying to define profiles related with the
Invoice, the requirement to amend invoices has arised and the requirement of
other UBL documents has been required.  
Due to the law in Spain, we cannot use CreditNote as the mechanism to
correct mistakes in previous invoices, but a document called "Factura
Rectificativa" that is an special type of invoice with some special
components referring to the corrected invoice.

This has lead us to (i) define a new document called AmendmentInvoice (for
instance), (ii) use the InvoiceTypeCode to state the type of the invoice and
use the own components of the UBL 2.0 Invoice to hold the required data on a
AmendmentInvoice, or (iii) use the CreditNote as an Amendment Invoice.

Our first approach has been using the second option, that maybe is not
correct under the semantycs point of view but as you stated, makes things
easier. When adding other documents like Order, Despatch Advice and so on,
CCI UBL will need to redefine some Profiles and think again about the
business process of amending an Invoice.

Under my point of view, this kind of things need to be aligned between the
different European Member countries as they share the same Directives and I
hope those issues will be addressed in the CEN WS on Interoperability BII.

I hope this helps,
