Why use My Locations Manager for Peppol?
GLNs can be used to correctly allocate and send invoices per department. This is especially useful when an organisation has one company number, but wants to indicate different recipients for specific invoices.
In My Locations Manager, you can add extra data about your organisations or locations. For Peppol, only the GLN number itself is relevant. Please note: GS1 is not a Peppol register. GS1 does not forward this information. You must communicate your GLN to your suppliers or via your software provider.
