Raw material purchases, component suppliers and distributor sales make both directions heavy. Prices are often governed by long-term contracts, so an invoice that diverges from the agreed price needs to surface before payment, not after.
The practical next step
Three-way matching — invoice against purchase order against goods receipt — is where the return on e-invoicing actually appears in this sector, well beyond compliance.
