Generix Delivers Schematron for Electronic Invoicing to AFNOR to Ensure Interoperability Between PDPs

Paris, FRANCE, 8 July, 2025 – Generix, a global business software company offering an expansive portfolio of SaaS solutions for supply chain, finance, commerce, and B2B integration, today announces the availability of schematrons for e-Invoicing, developed by its R&D teams for AFNOR interoperability.

To meet e-Invoicing reform regulations, Generix will provide the UBL and CII Schematrons for managing the controls relating to flows 2, 8, and 9 in the annexes to standard XP 212-012. These tools, which are designed to validate XML objects with complex and contextual rules, were developed using artificial intelligence and a commercially available LLM.

For its part, AFNOR announced in the publications of the “invoice standardization” working group that it would provide all PDPs with schematrons that apply functional and application controls. The deployment of the same validation tool across all PDP control chains ensures consistent and synchronized application of controls while reducing the number of rejections.

“We are proud to provide the FNFE and AFNOR with the schematrons supporting the EN16931 FR and EXTENSION CTC FR profile management rules. Our hope is that this universal approach will ensure that all PDPs are able to apply the right levels of checks and balances to help reduce the number of invoice rejections – enabling more successful implementation of the reform,” Christophe Viry, Director of Product, Generix.

“The FNFE, along with the wider market, extends its thanks to Generix for this valuable contribution which will help speed up AFNOR’s efforts and the rollout of schematrons to all PDPs,” Cyrille Sautereau, President of FNFE and AFNOR Commission for standardization of electronic invoicing.

Since 2020, Generix has been actively engaged in the development, implementation, and advancement of the electronic invoicing reform. It has contributed to every collaborative initiative and is now recognized as a key participant within both the Forum National de la Facture Électronique (FNFE) and the Association Française de Normalisation (AFNOR) Commission, helping to create standards and promote interoperability across the industry.
