Why is EDIFACT out of the game?

• The Electronic Invoicing version in France has been a popular topic, with debates on various aspects such as the model, implementation dates, and formats.
• However, the focus on the proposed formats, particularly the absence of consideration for widely used formats like EDIFACT, has been overlooked.
• The three core formats are quite similar, raising the question of why these specific formats were chosen when companies have been using structured files like EDIFACT for decades.
• The widespread use and standardization of EDIFACT make it a viable option, prompting the question of why it wasn’t selected for Electronic Invoicing in France.
