## Proposal
France will make e-invoice required soon ([E-Invoicing comes into effect in France](https://discuss.tryton.org/t/e-invoicing-comes-into-effect-in-france/9079)).
So it will be good to have in standard at least one module to support the reception and emission of invoices for french companies.
[SUPER PDP](https://www.superpdp.tech/), as already discussed, seems to be a good option.
We propose to write a module `edocument_super_pdp` to implement the [SUPER PDP API](https://www.superpdp.tech/openapi) similar to the `edocument_peppol_peppyrus`.
~~We plan to use their custom API instead of the [AFNOR API](https://www.superpdp.tech/documentation/9) because it will require more effort such as supporting the 3 possibles format (Factur-X France, UBL France, CII France) compare to a unique normalized JSON for the invoice reception.~~
We plan to implement the [AFNOR API](https://www.superpdp.tech/documentation/9) as we support the 3 possibles formats for reception. And we will use UBL France as sending format by default.
This module will also support PEPPOL for Belgian companies.
The proposal does not include the e-reporting for which SUPER PDP has not yet published the API.
## Budget
We have estimated the effort to 4 days of development.
For B2CK this means a budget of **2000€** (without VAT).
The budget will be divided in equal parts between the contributors.
_Contributors may add an upper limit (minimum: **200€** ) to their contribution in case there are not enough contributors. For that they will just need to post a message with their limit (so others may anticipate their costs)._

Very nice. Upper limit 200€.
By the way, I thought the support for either three formats (Factur-X, UBL, CII), was the Plateforme Agréée’s role so that Tryton has just to support one (standard XP\_Z12-013, section 5.4.1). Or I missed something.

While I can understand the technical rationale behind choosing SuperPDP’s internal API, I regret that a Free Software project has chosen not to use an existing standard and has sacrificed interoperability, even though—while it is not a requirement—communications from the DGFIP, AIFE, and AFNOR encourage the implementation of this standard.

That’s for sending but you may receive any of the 3 formats so you must support all of them for reception.
I guess it is the reason SUPER PDP provides also an API to convert from one format to another.
I think the French authorities made a mistake by not imposing a unique format like it was done in Belgium with PEPPOL.

I doubt that this standard will really bring real interoperability.

But they are not the one that needs to invest 3 times the cost to implement their 3 duplicates formats.
DGFIP has already been deceptive by not implementing on official portal and delegate completely to private sector. So it is easy for them to “encourage” other to do what they could not.

And implementing the “standard” will cost 3 times the current cost (without real guarantee of interoperability).
I do not think the sponsoring will be successful in such case. So it is better to have a working solution than nothing.

I must add that the protocol implementation will be a small part of the development. The major part is the design and implementation of the events which will be generic and reusable for any AP implementations. This means that like for the Peppol implementation, adding another service provider (or AFNOR API) would be only about the protocol (and for AFNOR the support of the 3 formats).

Hello
Have you thought about the [pdplibre](https://pdplibre.org/#why) project?
Its current purpose is to act as a proxy with some PAs while complying with the AFNOR project.
The ultimate goal would be for it to become its own PA.
Have a nice day.

For me, PDP Libre does not seem to provide any API for now.
Any way it is no more the time to discuss about choosing a provider but to finalize the sponsoring to have a working solution for 8.2.

Good idea. Upper limit 300 €.

We now have the tools to support the 3 formats without extra cost.
So I updated the proposal accordingly.
