Imagine you’re running a business across several countries. You’ve got teams to manage, products to develop, customers to serve, and invoices to send. Lots of them. In different formats. With different rules and different languages. 

Now imagine not having to think about any of that.

That’s the reality for Visma Software Nordic’s customers. Visma Software Nordic is one of the 180 companies that comprise Visma Group, Europe’s leading cloud ERP provider. Visma Software Nordic’s Visma Net platform supports businesses from the inside out and effortless invoicing plays a key part in their offering. 

For Visma Software Nordic, building and maintaining an in-house invoicing solution within their ERP system would have been both resource-intensive and complex. “It would have been a massive project to build e-invoicing capabilities in-house”, says Kristian Mårtensson, Operational Lead at Visma Software Nordic. “Instead, we partnered with Maventa already back in 2012, and we’ve worked together ever since.” 

Seamless collaboration from day one

Visma Net was launched in 2012 and from day one, Maventa’s API-based e-invoicing solution has been a part of the product, working quietly behind the scenes. 

“Our customers can just send their invoices from the Visma Net ERP. Maventa handles the rest. Invoices always go out in the right format, exactly how the customer wants it. Everything just runs and works in the background," Kristian Mårtensson, Operational Lead, Visma Software Nordic

And that’s no small thing. With Maventa’s solution, Visma Net’s customers can:

• Send and receive invoices locally and globally: no worrying about local formats or rules
• Start invoicing instantly after activation, no manual setup or configuration
• Trust that every invoice gets delivered: Maventa prioritises the electronic route for speed, security, and sustainability, while still ensuring delivery via PDF or print when needed

Simplifying invoicing together

Today, Visma Software Nordic leverages a large part of Maventa’s services, including invoice sending and receiving, PDF interpretation, and Peppol capabilities, across all the countries where they operate.

And that enables the following, 

1. Faster payment cycles: E-invoicing speeds up payment processes significantly compared to other invoicing methods
2. Better customer experience: Everything works out of the box, in one system, with simple onboarding.
3. Low barrier for usage: Maventa’s transaction-based pricing means Visma Net’s users only pay for the invoices they send and receive. When e-invoicing doesn’t bring in extra costs, it encourages customers to make the switch

“Maventa makes electronic invoicing so easy, and that brings us and our customers so many benefits: speed, security, and even the environmental benefits,” Mårtensson summarises. 

“From an everyday perspective, I don’t have to think about it; it just works,” he concludes.

The Maventa effect

For software providers considering partnering up with Maventa, Mårtensson puts it simply: 

“One big benefit is that Maventa always handles how the invoices will be sent. Many other operators require you to manage that, but Maventa handles the delivery and ensures that invoices always reach their destination.”

Maventa allows Visma Software to focus on delivering exceptional ERP solutions while leaving invoice management to a trusted partner.

“Maventa prioritises the electronic route of course, but if the receiver can’t receive it, then email, then Maventa can print it for us. One way or another, it will get delivered.” Mårtensson concludes.
