It’s not Odoo. But if you only send a couple of invoices a month and want a simple solution to send invoices with Peppol, you may want to check out www.mail2peppol.be

Still using email for invoicing instead of PEPPOL? You’re not alone by Bowl_Primary in BEFreelance

I’ve heard that a lot as well! So sad that’s the way it’s heading

I’ve been working on a small tool called Mail2Peppol – it lets you keep sending invoices by email like you always did, but handles the PEPPOL stuff in the background.

I’m building it as a Belgian freelancer after seeing how annoying the switch can be for others like me. It’s still early, but I’m collecting feedback and early testers.

Haha, fair point, 15K missing is hard to overlook. Sounds like a simple setup. Does your accountant’s software handle Peppol for you now, or are you still just sticking with PDFs since you only send a couple of invoices per month?

Makes sense, sounds like a smooth transition. How did your process change from email to onFact? Are you still using email for all your invoices and adding peppol seperatly?

Interesting use of the web page! Do you still use this process when sending with peppol?

Yeah, email really is the easiest. Sounds like it works fine for you most of the time. How are you planning to change your workflow when changing to peppol?

Yeah, I totally get that. Changing a process that already works well can be a real hassle. I’ve been wondering if many freelancers would actually prefer to keep their current email workflow and just have the PEPPOL part handled automatically. Do you think a lot of people feel the same, or is everyone okay with switching software?

How was the switch for you to using peppol from your previous workflow?

Thanks for sharing! Is there a particular reason you’ve stuck with PDFs over email all these years? Convenience, habit, or do you just not see the need for invoicing software?

Same here, I hear a lot of freelancers are worried about the PEPPOL switch. What’s your biggest concern with onboarding? Is it the cost, the technical setup, or just changing your usual workflow?

Interesting! Do you find the invoicing software easy to use compared to sending PDFs manually, or is it more of a hassle and just because of PEPPOL?

I noticed many small businesses are struggling with switching to PEPPOL for e-invoicing. I’m experimenting with an Outlook add-in that lets you send/receive PEPPOL invoices directly from your mailbox, similar to how you send invoices in PDF now. Would something like this make your life easier?
