How to-questions

How to become an Access Point in the Peppol Network?

Please go to our pages for service providers in OpenPeppol - eDelivery, SMP and format (pages in Norwegian) 

How to become an SMP in the Peppol Network?

In Norway it is common to use the Norwegian SMP called ELMA. Access Points operating with Norwegian receivers of messages are recommended to use ELMA.

When you are a certified Access Point with end-points in Norway you can get access to ELMA.

If you are to make an SMP for receivers outside Norway you must make your own SMP or buy the service from an existing SMP service provider.

To find a receiver in the Peppol network use Peppol Directory. For most receivers in Norway you can use the ELMA lookup.

How to send an electronic invoice

You can create valid electronic invoices in Norway in two ways:

  • using your internal ERP or accounting systems
  • using an approved invoicing portal provider

Step by step guide to creating an invoice using your own internal ERP or accounting systems

  1. Implement support for standard format Peppol BIS or Elektronisk Handelsformat (EHF) directly in your system or via a service provider.
    Generate an Peppol BIS or EHF using your system.
    Validate the format so that the format is correct before sending.
  2. Connect to an access point. 
    Many commercially available accounting and ERP systems already have built-in access point capabilities that you can activate, by contacting your software provider.
    You can also purchase a connection agreement from an access point provider (list in Norwegian). See also OpenPeppol list.
  3. Confirm the identity of the recipient in the address register, using their organization number ELMA og Peppol Directory.
  4. Send your Peppol BIS or EHF to the recipient identified in ELMA(SMP), using your connection to the Peppol infrastructure.
