According to eGov Monitor, Argyll and Bute Council will be the first local authority in Scotland to begin using electronic invoices for ePS generated orders as part of a pilot scheme being run by the public sector eGovernment initiative - eProcurement Scotland.
If the system is deemed a success suggested timescales for other ePS user organisations in Scotland to implement eInvoicing software directly into ePS will then be put forward.
eProcurement Scotland aims to help the Scottish public sector, including central government, local government and the NHS, to achieve cost savings and efficiencies through eProcurement.
