Belfius Bank fully digitized its incoming invoice processing by implementing the Dokapi portal, enabling suppliers to submit PDF invoices that are automatically converted into Peppol-compliant UBL documents and seamlessly integrated into Belfius’s SAP accounting system.
Belfius has fully digitized 100% of its incoming invoices. To support electronic and standardized invoice reception, the Belfius Supplier Portal was launched in January 2021, targeting over 5,000 suppliers.
Fully integrated, powered by Peppol
Suppliers are usually invited to the portal by Belfius via email, though they can also register online themselves. The portal allows them to easily upload invoices, send them for free, and consult their invoice history.
Each uploaded PDF invoice is transformed in real time into the Peppol format, using Dokapi’s AI-powered invoice recognition model. This proprietary model was specifically trained to extract data from invoices with high accuracy.
Once a supplier uploads their PDF, they validate the recognized fields and simply click 'Send'. As the portal administrator, Belfius has all the tools to efficiently manage its supplier relationships.
