What to do next
- Turn it on in Sandbox this week and send one real invoice through it. Master toggle, Environment left at Sandbox, an ASP account tested to Verified, and one posted AED invoice to a UAE customer taken all the way to View XML. An hour spent doing this in a sandbox is worth a week of reading about it, and it is the only way to find out what your own data does.
- Audit your customers for the two data faults that matter. Export the active contacts and look for a missing street, which fails validation loudly, and a missing country, which is worse because it drops the invoice out of scope silently. Fix them on the contacts, not on the invoices, and do it before your go-live date rather than during your first week live.
- Read the rest of the track. Course 3.1 covers the mandate, the phases, the five-corner model and the penalty regime; course 3.3 covers the dispatcher, retry backoff, inbound documents and the E-Invoicing Status report. Both are on the Odoone course list.
