Help for PEPPOL reporting

[dzagagnoni89]

Hello,
in my company we use phase4 for PEPPOL both in reception and in sending.

We are analyzing the specifications indicated in this article to start implementing PEPPOL reporting and we have some questions:

1. In the sending phase, where do we find the "Timing of the exchange" field? When receiving it should be here --> AS4 field "eb:UserMessage/eb:MessageInfo/eb:Timestamp".
2. Is there a method or a function to easily extract the PEPPOL SeatID of the participants from their certificate?
3. Where do we find the Country Id of the Sender and Country Id of the Receiver fields?

Thanks in advance for the support!
Regards,
Davide Zagagnoni

Hi Davide, thanks for reaching out :)

Please note, that I also started an Open Source implementation for Peppol Reporting based on the specifications you mentioned - it can be found at https://github.com/phax/peppol-reporting (under development).

Regarding your questions:
ad 1. In the first version of the BIS sent out for review, a "Guideline for Service Providers" was included - that is still available under https://openpeppol.atlassian.net/wiki/download/attachments/2832957455/Peppol%20Reporting%20-%20SP%20Guideline%20v1.0.pdf?api=v2
It states this on Timing:

ad 2. I already did this code in class PeppolCertificateHelper - you can extract it either from a Java X509Certificate or a Subject String.

ad 3. The Country codes of Sender and Receiver will be part of the SBDH. That is an update of the SBDH specification that requires publication and therefore these 2 fields are currently optional. See this section of the BIS you are referencing:
