Learn more on how Ai2 can work for you by this business case:
You are a supplier in the floriculture sector and you receive an order for a large batch of gerberas. You first deliver the order to your customer and send your electronic delivery note (EAB) to Ai2.
Ai2 sends the delivery message (EKT / DES ADV) to your customer. Your customer will receive a daily invoice with the products delivered. After the expiry of the legal collection period according to SEPA regulations, Ai2 will transfer the amount to your account within 5 days, taking into account any payment agreements.
You always have online access to your transaction, so you can immediately see which payments you receive and when. You can of course also enter multiple transactions to multiple customers at the same time. Is your customer not yet a customer of Ai2? No problem, invite him by one simple click.
