   1. Preamble: the procedure that follows guides the companies Chief Access Manager and the (candidate) billing officer to a 3-steps workflow, that (1°) is common for all eGOV roles - so it is repeatable and manageable for the Access Manager - , and (2°)  guarantees that all candidates are truly identified, so roles cannot be appointed to the wrong person or usurped. Notice also that Access Manager can easily  revoke appointed roles whenever needed.
   2. Workflow:
      1. The Access Manager creates an invitation for the role "billing officer", and sends the invitation to the candidate
         1. Go to https://iamapps.belgium.be/rma. click "log in"
         2. Go to tab "manage invitations"
            
            
            
            
         3. Click "create a new invitation". follow the 6-step wizard, selecting the role "billing officer".
            
            
            
            
         4. Once the invitation is created, send it by mail (email address filled in) or copy the url that corresponds to the invitation and send it by manual email to the candidate

In case of trouble using my eGOV Roles management, please send a support request .

I need to represent several companies. is it possible?

...

• As Legal Representative this is automatic. You will see immediately all invoices of all companies you legally represent provided your enterprise data in the CBE are correct  and be able to send invoices for all of them.
• As Billing Officer each company you represent must appoint you the role billing officer, following the procedure documented at I am not a legal representative of the company, but I am in charge of outgoing invoices to the government for the company. Therefore I need to access the site.

Selection on company is possible after login in Mercurius.

Remark: to be able to send invoices to public entities, access to the Mercurius portal is not necessary. Public entities adhere the European interoperability framework PEPPOL. This framework consists of a transnational transport infrastructure. More than 200 Access Points are available all over Europe. ICT companies develop global solutions based on this interoperability framework and transport infrastructure. A list of available Access points can be found at https://peppol.eu/who-is-who/peppol-certified-aps/. More information on PEPPOL in Belgium can be found at Belgian PEPPOL Authority.
