E-business
INA-Industrija nafte, d.d. set up an electronic invoicing system with the biggest retail suppliers already in 2012, in particular through the implementation of the EDI method.
Suppliers of INA retail network have recognized the benefits of electronic exchange of documents via the EDI method, and the number of business partners included in the electronic exchnage increases each year. One of the main goals of the implementation of the EDI method is a complete cancellation of the exchange of paper documents, including invoices, which has been carried out with several business partners, and INA continues to aspire to such practice.
