Crossgate Expands Inbound e-Invoicing Capabilities for SAP Customers in Mexico

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Crossgate Inc., the global expert in business-to-business integration (B2B) and e-Invoicing compliance, has enhanced their existing Outbound process in Mexico with an Inbound solution that provides real-time invoice validation with the Servicio de Administración Tributaria and provides direct integration into SAP ERP Applications.

“Many companies don’t understand that just a small inaccuracy in the invoice can cause it to be rejected by the Mexican government. With Crossgate’s solution, companies instantly know whether the invoice is out of compliance. This allows a company to rectify the problem immediately and before any legal issues occur.”

New e-Invoicing mandates from Mexico require receivers of e-Invoices to validate the authenticity and accuracy of these fiscal documents with the government prior to sending payment. Paying an invalid e-Invoice is illegal and can result in jail time. Crossgate now provides an integrated Inbound e-Invoicing solution that automatically validates the document against government data and guarantees compliance.

Without an automated solution, companies are left to manually validate each invoice which is an error prone and inefficient process. Crossgate’s Inbound e-Invoicing Compliance solution for the Mexico SAT includes:

Fully embedded SAP Dashboard’s to monitor the status of each invoice
Detailed search capability inside of SAP in the case an audit were to take place
Provides Full Detail on Conceptos, Parte, & Customs/Aduana Information
Provides both Fiscal and Commercial compliance options for SAP Users
- Fiscal Compliance: Detail on signature, XML structure, and content validations (including History)
- Commercial Compliance: handles PO-Backed with truck or after, FI-Only Invoices, and Automates the MIRO/MIGO process within SAP

“Not only does the Crossgate solution guarantee 100% compliance, but because we are integrated directly into SAP systems, the process for accepting and paying invoices becomes seamless to an end user,” explains Scott Lewin, President Crossgate Inc. Lewin continues, “Many companies don’t understand that just a small inaccuracy in the invoice can cause it to be rejected by the Mexican government. With Crossgate’s solution, companies instantly know whether the invoice is out of compliance. This allows a company to rectify the problem immediately and before any legal issues occur.”

Having been doing business for years in Mexico, Crossgate’s Inbound e-Invoicing was the next logical step in development. Crossgate adds Inbound to an already successful Outbound e-Invoicing system in Mexico as well as full solutions for Brazil (NF-e) and Argentina. Crossgate is the only eInvoice solution for Mexico that is fully integrated with SAP and allows all business users to perform and track all e-Invoicing requirements within the SAP solution.
