How to get started with electronic invoicing
As part of its Group-wide sustainability strategy, the REWE Group continuously aims to improve processes and conserve environmental resources. For this reason, we regularly rely on electronic processes that simplify life, both for our suppliers and for our employees as well.
There are many advantages to electronic invoicing:
Savings in printing and postage costs
