Seres Buys out SELISA’s Software Publishing Business

Actu Seres October 2008

On 3rd November 2008, Seres finalised the takeover of the ADR/ADC software editor business of Selisa/Ladservices, another subsidiary of Doc@post.

The Selisa/Ladservices business taken over by Seres is one of the main players on the French market for Automatic Document Capture (ADC) software publishing. Its solutions are renowned for their capacity to scan and index any kind of document.

The software business employs 20 people and thus becomes part of the Seres group, integrating the subsidiary Seres ASV set up in 2007 and specialised until now in the development of video coding systems.

In addition to Seres ASV’s own offer, this new business will be naturally associated with other product lines in the Seres group to put together a unique package on the market for the dematerialisation of flows, combining dematerialisation at source by EDI and dematerialisation of paper flows, in particular for in-coming invoices.

The Seres group will thus continue to market ADC software and will shortly be able to offer new ranges based on this software.

Thanks to these new solutions, Seres’ clients can now work with a single partner to manage their dematerialized processes, regardless of whether their flows are electronic or on paper.

e-Factura: a widely-used solution within the primary sector

A few months ago, Seres Mexico received approval from the SAT (Tributary Administration Service in Mexico) to implement its e-Factura solution within companies in the primary sector.

Following approval, our Mexican subsidiary was exclusively entitled to issue the first electronic invoice as part of the new tax resolution (l.2.5.1 of the Resolución Miscelánea Fiscal), concerning electronic invoices in the primary sector.

Thanks to this new regulation, companies in the industrial sector may now, on condition that they use a SAT-approved electronic invoice solution, deduct 100% of their purchases from suppliers in the primary sector.
It is therefore down to these companies (who process raw materials and market their products) to subscribe to an approved dematerialization solution, and not the responsibility of the raw material producer. With this new resolution, the responsibility for issuing electronic invoices is shared between the producer, the raw material processing company and the supplier of the approved solution, but the administrative liability is fully shouldered by the latter two.

Seres Mexico is today one of the SAT-approved suppliers with the largest number of operational clients for its e-Factura solution.

Butagaz Success Story

Butagaz has decided to implement the Doc@post tax-compliant dematerialization solution, based on the Seres’ e-Facture offer.

Béatrice Concordia is project manager, in charge of implementing tax-compliant dematerialization solutions within Butagaz. She explains the general project to overhaul the client back office at Butagaz, which was entrusted to Doc@post and which includes a tax-compliant paperless aspect.

Success Story for Seres Mexique – Chrysler

Seres Mexico has been selected by Chrysler, a major player in the automotive sector, to set up its electronic invoice solution within its network of suppliers.
