EHF lets you send invoices and credit notes electronically to business customers in Norway and Sweden over the Peppol network, instead of emailing a PDF. TRAEDE builds the e-invoice and transmits it through TRAEDE's e-invoicing partner, Duett.
Before you start
- EHF must be enabled for your brand by TRAEDE first. If the toggle below isn't visible on a customer, contact TRAEDE support and let them know you wish to start using EHF invoicing.
- The customer's country must be set to Norway or Sweden.
- Have the customer's organization number ready, or a VAT number — TRAEDE can convert a VAT number into an organization number.
Setting it up on the customer
- Open the customer's profile.
- Go to the Master data tab.
- Find the Billing card.
- Turn on Send invoices using EHF.
- In the Organization Number field that appears, enter the customer's organization number.
- Click Save.
What triggers a send
Sending happens automatically when an invoice or credit note is booked. There's no separate button to send it — booking queues the transmission.
Requirements for a successful send
A send fails if any of these aren't in place:
| Requirement | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Customer has an organization number | This is the recipient's Peppol address. Without it, TRAEDE can't route the document. |
| Invoice has a bank account number | Invoices without one are rejected. |
| Seller and buyer both have a name and address | Required on every EHF document. |
| The invoicing entity has an invoice address registered | Applies if your brand has multiple legal entities — each one needs its own invoice address. |
| Invoice total matches the sum of the lines | Only a small rounding tolerance is allowed. |
Checking delivery status
Each send is tracked in the Document Exchange log with one of these statuses:
- New — queued, not yet picked up.
- In process queue — being transmitted.
- Processed — delivered successfully.
- Error or Abandoned — something went wrong.

EHF vs EAN
EHF and EAN are two different electronic-invoicing standards for two different markets, but they share the same toggle location on the customer. TRAEDE picks automatically: Norway/Sweden customers with an EHF agreement go out as EHF over Peppol/Duett; customers set up with an EAN/GLN number — typically Danish, via e-conomic — go out as EAN. Only one ever applies to a given document.
