Business Central app · Peppol
Peppol e-invoicing, built into Business Central.
Posted sales invoices and credit memos travel the Peppol network from the page you already work on. Supplier documents come back in through Business Central’s own E-Document framework. Belgium’s B2B mandate has been live since January 2026 — this is how you meet it without a portal alongside your ERP.

What it does
Sending, receiving, and knowing where a document is.
Sending
One, a selection, or nobody
Send a posted invoice on its own, select rows and send them together, or let a job queue sweep pick them up unattended. A batch does not stop on a bad row — fifty documents with two bad customers still delivers forty-eight, and the two are written to the log with their reason.
Receiving
Supplier documents, coded and routed
Incoming documents are matched to the vendor they came from, become a purchase invoice or a purchase order as you decide, and can be routed into your existing approval workflow. Their own PDF is attached to the purchase document alongside the structured data.
Knowing
Sent is not the same as delivered
The log records what Business Central did. Check Delivery asks the network whether the receiving side confirmed arrival. Download UBL gives you the XML exactly as it was exchanged — which is what you want on the day a customer says nothing came.
How it works
From posted document to the network, in one flow.
Nothing happens on a schedule that a person has not switched on first.
-
1
You post as you always did
A sales invoice or credit memo is posted in Business Central. No separate entry, no export, no second system.
-
2
It becomes a compliant document
The app builds a Peppol BIS 3.0 document in UBL, applies Belgian reverse charge where your VAT setup calls for it, and can attach a PDF rendering so the receiver still sees the invoice as you designed it.
-
3
It travels the network
The document goes out through your access point to your customer’s. The send is recorded, and the status sits on the document itself.
-
4
And the same in reverse
Supplier documents arrive through Business Central’s E-Document framework, are recognised, and wait wherever you decided they should wait.
Inside the app
Ten tiles that count what needs a person.
The app adds an E-Invoicing band to the Business Manager and Accountant role centers. Every tile is off until you switch it on, and the choice is per user — ten tiles on everybody’s home page would be noise for most of them.

Issues
If you show only two, make them IBAN Changes and Failed Sends. One is money going somewhere it should not; the other is money not arriving.
Why you would trust it
The parts that exist because something can go wrong.
Fraud
Bank details are a claim, not a fact
Every account an incoming document proposes waits on a list for a person to accept or reject it. Nothing reaches a vendor card until somebody approves it. When a document changes details you already hold, the confirmation says so in as many words — and tells you to call the supplier on a number you already had.
Identity
A document cannot leave under the wrong company
Each Business Central company is mapped to its own identity on the platform, and a company whose mapping has not passed its identity check cannot send at all. That is deliberate: sending under the wrong legal entity is worse than not sending.
Evidence
The log cannot be emptied
The day-to-day permission set can add to the send log and update it, never delete from it. A user who can delete rows can make a failed send disappear — which is precisely the evidence you want when a customer says an invoice never arrived.
Exit
It comes out as cleanly as it went in
Uninstall Impact reports exactly what the app has written into standard tables, and changes nothing while it does. That answer is as useful before you buy as before you leave.
What you need
Before it can do anything.
- Business Central
- 2026 release wave 1 (version 28) or later, with Microsoft’s E-Document Core app, which ships with Business Central.
- A platform account
- An account with an e-invoicing platform provider, for network access. Sold separately — we help you get set up on it.
- Outbound calls
- Allowed for the extension. A newly installed extension has this switched off, and reinstalling switches it off again.
- Company identity
- A VAT registration number or, in Belgium, an enterprise number on Company Information.
- Where it applies
- The app is built for the Belgian B2B mandate, which has been in force since January 2026. Sending is not limited to Belgium: identifier schemes for the Netherlands, France and Germany are supported as well, plus GLN, so you can address trading partners abroad.
Several features lean on standard Business Central that has to be configured — approval workflows, text-to-account mapping, report selections. What Business Central Must Have in Place lists every one of them.
Documentation
Everything the app does, written down.
Get started

When something breaks
Error messages, explained
Every error the app can raise, with what caused it and what to do — searchable by the exact text on your screen.
Full documentation: E-Invoice Platform help. It is also reachable from inside Business Central, through the Learn more links on tooltips.
How you start
It is a conversation, not a download.
The app is on its way to Microsoft AppSource and is not listed yet, so there is no install button to press today. Tell us which Business Central version you are on and what you invoice, and we will tell you honestly whether this fits — and what it would take.
