Connecting Business Central to a UAE e-invoicing provider over Peppol
Kicking off UAE e-invoicing with Business Central and an accredited service provider, and what to settle in the contract before building.
Challenge
The PINT AE format has its own field and currency rules. The provider contract also carried risks (service credits, price changes, liability, getting your data back) that decide how painful a later switch would be.
Solution and implementation
Mapped BC documents to PINT AE fields before writing integration code. Negotiated service-level credits, a price lock, a liability cap and data portability into the purchase order, and kept the integration layer separate from the provider so a switch stays possible.
What to watch for
Appoint the provider before you design the integration. The provider's API decides the design, not the other way round.
Results
We publish measured results only where the client has confirmed them and they cannot identify the client. None are published for this project yet.
