mandatory infrastructure

The invoice no longer travels alone.

Behind the move to digital sit intermediaries, directories, processing steps, contracts and fallback paths. The investigation starts with this concrete architecture instead of reducing the debate to a regulatory deadline.

The EPUB adds an introduction and conclusion to the five articles. It preserves sources, limitations, canonical links and text alternatives for the infographics so that every element can be checked.
