Telenet and Tymnet are examples of value-added networks. (VAN), which is one of five VANs working with the government on Denmark's e-invoicing initiative, will give vendors an online "mailbox A simulated mailbox in the computer that holds e-mail messages. Mailboxes are stored on disk as a file of messages, a database of messages or as an individual file for each message. The standard mailboxes are usually In, Out, Trash and Junk (Spam). " where they can post invoices in need of payment. KMD, using Cloverleaf(R) Integration Services from Quovadx, will then convert the invoices into a standard XML-based file format required by the government (OIOXML) and transfer them to the appropriate Danish government organization. Currently, KMD processes 30,000 to 40,000 invoices per day from more than 750 suppliers in the country. "Hundreds of vendors rely on the Danish government's e-invoicing system every day, so it was critical that it be built on a foundation that can support the pressure of millions of transactions," said Bente Jensen, business development manager, KMD. "By using Cloverleaf(R) technology on integration projects with clients in the healthcare sector since 1998, we were confident that Cloverleaf(R) standards-based integration technology was the right solution for managing the transfer of invoice An itemized statement or written account of goods sent to a purchaser or consignee by a vendor that indicates the quantity and price of each piece of merchandise shipped. A consular invoice is one used in foreign trade. data from multiple vendors to the local authorities and central government." The Danish government required the use of electronic invoices for all public-sector institutions in Denmark as of February 1, 2005. By processing invoices electronically, the Danish government reaps a significant time and cost savings, in both personnel and supplies as compared to manual processing. To further increase efficiencies within the public sector, this initiative will be expanded in 2006 to require that public-sector organizations use only electronic purchase orders with private-sector vendors, based on the same OIOXML standards. "KMD has been a loyal customer of ours for more than six years, and we are proud that they decided to extend the use of our offering to their work with the Danish government," said Paul Bellamy, vice president, International, Quovadx. "Through our relationship with KMD, our Cloverleaf(R) technology will handle approximately 80% of the e-invoicing volume at the local level in Denmark, a testimony to the excellence of Cloverleaf(R) Integration Suite and to the implementation and support skills of KMD."
