Peppol is a set of artifacts and specifications enabling cross-border eProcurement. The use of Peppol is governed by a multi-lateral agreement structure owned and maintained by OpenPEPPOL. Peppol enables trading partners to exchange standards-based electronic documents over the Peppol network (based on a 4-corner model). These documents include e-Orders, e-Advance Shipping Notes, eInvoices, eCatalogues, Message Level Responses, and so on.

Peppol access Points connect users to the Peppol network and electronic exchange documents based on the Peppol specifications. Buyers and suppliers can choose their preferred single access point provider to connect to all Peppol participants already on the network. This feature enables you to connect once and connect to all.
