Supplier information about e-invoices

Suppliers can choose among several ways to send e-invoices. The preferred method is via PEPPOL BIS Billing 3 format. We do not accept invoices via email or PDF.

From April 1st 2019, by law, you as a supplier must send us an e-invoice.

The following general instructions apply regardless of the method chosen. Remember that the following applies in addition to statutory requirements.

  • The supplier is to quote the invoice references requested by the University.
  • The supplier needs to be able to quote the purchaser reference, order reference, and subscription number.
  • Credit invoices should refer to the original invoice.
  • The invoice should include information about what the delivery concerns (type, quantity, and any information about the documents on which the invoice is based, e.g. price quote).
  • All invoices must be issued via a contract supplier unless otherwise agreed.
  • In the event that an order is made via the e-commerce system, an invoice may only refer to a single purchase order.
  • When setting up a subscription, an invoice may only refer to one subscription.

Quote the invoice reference

Invoice references must be quoted on the invoice:

  • If the order is placed by phone, our buyer ID (e.g. 1111AAAAAA) should be quoted in the RequisitionistDocumentReference field.
  • If the order is placed via our purchasing system, our order number (9900000xxxx) must be quoted in the OrderLineReference field.
  • For subscription invoices, the subscription number should be quoted in the AdditionalDocumentReference field (max. 25 characters).
  • The reference should be written in succession without headings or first element.
