WiseTREND Is Now a Certified Peppol Access Point Provider

WiseTREND now operates its own certified OpenPeppol Access Point and Service Metadata Publisher (SMP) — not a connection resold through another provider. As of April 10, 2026, WiseTREND is registered in the public Peppol Directory under participant ID 9959:83-3528003 (Seat ID POP000982), which means any trading partner anywhere in the world, or their own Access Point, can look WiseTREND up and exchange compliant e-invoices with it directly. For AP and AR teams already running WiseTREND's ABBYY-powered document capture, this closes the last gap between "we can read an invoice" and "we can transact one" on the Peppol network.

Why does a Peppol Access Point matter for AP and AR?

Peppol (Pan-European Public Procurement On-Line) is the four-corner e-invoicing network that the EU (under EN 16931), the UK, Australia and New Zealand (via the ATO and MBIE), Singapore, Japan, and — through the emerging US DBNAlliance — North America are converging on for structured, auditable invoice exchange. In that model, a sender never connects to a buyer directly. Each side goes through a certified Access Point, and the network's directory (the SML and SMP layer) tells the sending Access Point where to deliver and which certificate to encrypt for. Without a certified Access Point of its own, a document automation vendor can only read invoices that already arrived by PDF or email — it cannot participate in the compliant exchange itself.

What does WiseTREND's Access Point actually do?

WiseTREND's Peppol Service Provider registration (Seat ID POP000982) covers a production Access Point — corner 2 for a customer's outbound AR traffic, corner 3 for inbound AP traffic — plus WiseTREND's own SMP, registered with OpenPeppol's SML. Concretely, that means:

• Send — validate and transmit outbound e-invoices over AS4, formatted to the receiving jurisdiction's schema (PINT Billing, PINT A-NZ, or BIS Billing 3.0), with the WiseTREND Access Point signing and encrypting each message.
• Receive — accept inbound e-invoices addressed to WiseTREND's registered participant IDs, verify the sender's signature, and return a signed receipt plus Message Level Status (MLS) so the sender's Access Point knows the document was delivered, forwarded, or rejected.
• Publish discoverable service metadata — WiseTREND's own SMP answers lookups from any sending Access Point on the network with the document types it accepts, its AS4 endpoint, and its current signing certificate.

The screenshot below is the actual signed service metadata a sending Access Point receives when it looks WiseTREND up — the document type, process identifier, AS4 endpoint (https://peppol.wisetrend.com/oxalis/as4), and certificate are all live, not illustrative.

How does this fit with WiseTREND's existing AP and AR automation?

The Access Point sits underneath both directions of WiseTREND's existing AP/AR platform, and every e-invoice that crosses it lands in the same custody-tracked ledger as everything else the platform ingests:

• WiseTREND for AR (suppliers sending): capture the invoice from any source, convert and map it to UBL (PINT or BIS Billing 3.0), run it through Peppol business-rule validation before it leaves — so a sender fixes formatting problems, not the buyer — then WiseTREND's Access Point looks up the buyer via SML/SMP, signs, encrypts, and transmits over AS4. A signed receipt and Message Level Status come back as proof of delivery.
• WiseTREND for AP (buyers receiving): the supplier's own Access Point finds WiseTREND via the network directory; WiseTREND's Access Point verifies the signature, decrypts, and records custody in the message ledger; the invoice is then classified and its UBL fields — plus any attached PDFs or supporting documents — are extracted with the same OCR/AI capture used for scanned invoices; standard vendor, PO, and line-item matching and approval routing follow, then export to the ERP (SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, Dynamics, QuickBooks, and others).

Every message, in either direction, is tracked from network receipt through to ERP export and the status handed back to the sender — the same ledger view shown below is what a WiseTREND-connected buyer or supplier sees for their own traffic.

What should you look for in a Peppol provider?

Peppol support is easy to claim in a sales deck and much harder to verify. Before treating a vendor's e-invoicing claim as compliance-ready, check the following:

• Directory listing, not just a claim. Search the public Peppol Directory for the vendor's actual participant ID. If they aren't listed, they aren't a discoverable network participant.
• Which formats and countries, specifically. "Peppol support" can mean one country's BIS profile or full PINT/BIS/A-NZ coverage. Confirm the exact document types and jurisdictions before assuming your market is covered.
• Do they operate the Access Point, or resell one? A reseller adds a layer of dependency between you and the network — your uptime and support response are only as good as their upstream provider's.
• How are rejections and Message Level Status handled? A provider should be able to show you an actual MLS response (accepted, forwarded, or rejected with reason), not just "we send invoices."
• Does the hosting meet your compliance bar? For regulated buyers, confirm SOC 2, HIPAA, or the relevant data-residency requirements are met by the infrastructure actually processing the e-invoice, not just by the parent company's marketing page.
