Global e-invoicing

E-invoicing advisory and implementation.

Connect your finance processes, ERP and invoicing provider around the requirements of each market. COSAI supports readiness, solution selection, integration, testing and go-live, with a focus on the UAE, EU, UK and Saudi Arabia.

Readiness and advisory

Your challenge

Different mandates, unclear ownership and incomplete invoice data make it difficult to plan the next step.

What COSAI does

Assess entities, transaction types, systems and data gaps. Define country requirements, provider options, responsibilities and an implementation roadmap.

ERP and provider integration

Your challenge

Invoice data needs to move reliably between your ERP, invoicing provider and the required exchange or reporting channels.

What COSAI does

Scope and implement SAP or custom ERP/API connectivity, invoice-field mapping, validation, status handling, error recovery and reconciliation. SAP Business One connector fit is assessed against your version and provider API.

Testing, go-live and support

Your challenge

A working interface still needs tested business scenarios, clear controls and an operational support model.

What COSAI does

Define UAT for invoices, credit notes and exceptions. Coordinate provider testing, go-live readiness, finance-team handover, monitoring and an agreed support scope.
