How APPs Work in Practice

1. Your ERP system generates an invoice
2. The APP receives the invoice data
3. APP validates the data against NRS requirements
4. APP securely transmits the invoice to NRS
5. NRS validates, stamps, and returns confirmation
6. For B2B, the APP forwards the invoice to the buyer's APP
