Electronic invoicing is a process aimed to transform the traditional practice of issuing the paper invoices to digitalize the process for the exchange of invoices in a structured electronic format between buyer and seller through a unified process . E-invoicing also provides real-time invoicing data to the government and helps in plugging revenue leakages .
