B2C (travelers)

• Billing: Convergent Charging rates trips and applies fare capping. Convergent Invoicing bundles them into a periodic statement for post-pay accounts.
• E-invoicing: Generally not mandated for consumers. Most countries accept receipts or simplified invoices.
• Exceptions: Some countries require e-receipts or fiscal reporting for consumer sales (e.g., real-time reporting or cash-register rules). Italy and Poland also have consumer-related options.
• Practical point: Decide what counts as a legal invoice versus a statement. Businesses often ask for a proper VAT invoice for a rider's journeys, which needs a request-based flow.

B2B (employers, universities, corporate accounts)

• Billing: Contracts for job tickets, semester tickets, or corporate passes fit BRIM's contract-based invoicing well. Subscription Billing or Order Management handles the pass lifecycle.
• E-invoicing: This is the main mandate area. Common formats are EN 16931-based (ZUGFeRD/Factur-X, UBL, Peppol BIS). Some countries add clearance or reporting (Italy's SDI, Poland's KSeF, France's e-invoicing/e-reporting rollout).
• SAP side: Typically SAP Document and Reporting Compliance, plus Peppol access or a certified provider.
• Watch out for: Consolidated invoices versus per-contract invoices, and credit notes for pass cancellations.

B2G (authorities, municipalities, public service obligations)

• Billing: Invoices for concession compensation, subsidised fares (e.g., student or senior discounts), and PSO payments. These are often calculated in BRIM or settled through revenue-sharing.
• E-invoicing: Often mandatory, with structured formats and portals: XRechnung via Peppol or portals in Germany, Chorus Pro in France, PEF/Peppol elsewhere.
• Watch out for: Buyer routing IDs (e.g., Leitweg-ID in Germany), specific reference fields (contract or order numbers), and approval workflows on the authority's side.

Cross-cutting challenges

• Convergent Invoicing runs on FI-CA rather than classic SD billing, so e-document support can differ by country and release. Verify it for your exact scenario.
• Mandates and deadlines are changing quickly (Germany, France, Belgium, Poland, ViDA), so check current dates for your countries.

The suite of business software that helps companies manage how raw materials turn into finished products and reach customers. It connects planning, warehousing, shipping, and tracking into a single digital system. We assist in covering the end-to-end flow from planning and procurement through production, warehousing, transportation and delivery.

Logistics and execution down into four main steps:

• Receive: Tracks incoming goods from suppliers and handles customer returns.
• Store: Manages inventory flow inside warehouses and optimizes storage costs.
• Distribute: Plans and monitors the movement of products so they arrive at the right place on time.
• Analyze: Provides real-time data insights to spot supply chain risks and make better decisions.

• Before development: Comparing and selecting the right software solution options. The goal is to verify whether the software solution meets operational, technical, future and budgetary requirements.
• During development (testing): Early detection of bugs, vulnerabilities, and performance issues. This ensures quality and saves costs in the long term.
• During use (post-implementation evaluation): Assessing whether the software solution actually delivers the desired results and aligns with the needs of the end user. This is not yet in scope.

 

SAP managed services mean taking care of, monitoring, and running a client's SAP environment on an ongoing, day-to-day basis. While project-based SAP consulting services focus on initial buildouts or migrations, managed services provide continuous post-implementation support, maintenance, and optimization.
