invoicing - SEPA payments
- Almost all countries in Eurozone have a duty since 1.2.2014 to move to SEPA payments which are designed for all domestic but mostly for international bank transfers between EU banks. Detailed description of goals and purposes of this project is available at http://www.europeanpaymentscouncil.eu).
- Due to this duty SEPA payments has been integrated to the system ISPadmin in the universal XML format SEPA CORE SDD which is designed for Direct debit payments only. The specific standard is pain.008.001.02 which fully replaced individual domestic formats for created Direct debit files sent to the bank in EU.
- No domestic bank account number are allowed for SEPA payments, so it is necessary to change all domestic bank account numbers to IBAN so the to international bank account number and bank specification has to be changed to the BIC which is the international bank identification code. In other cases Direct debit payments won't be applicable for SEPA payments because of incorrect identification from generated XML file.
- In the Client card (in the tab "Information / Edit") there are new fields IBAN and BIC, which are used as values sent to a XML file for SEPA SDD payments sent to a bank.
- In the tab "Invoicing / Invoices" there it is possible to generate XML file with SEPA payments for every invoicing group for pre-defined period.
- Against the duty all banks are not ready to accept XML format for SEPA SDD payments because of individuals for some EU countries done by EPC (European Payments Council) and that countries have an option to use their domestic modifications of SEPA formats, so it is recommended to check what format is acceptable in local banks to avoid situation of sending incorrect file to the bank for Direct debit payments.

- 1 - Previous month (e.g. Generated Invoices for period 2/2014 = Mobile phone service for period 2/2014 and Total Call price from statement for period 1/2014 )
- 2 - Two months ago (e.g. Generated Invoices for period 2/2014 = Mobile phone service for period 2/2014 and Total Call price from statement for period 12/2013 )
