We live in an age of informatisation where almost every process has been made easier, optimised and digitized. Yet the process of issuing electronic receipts is still archaic and economically wasteful.
By instructions of the Directive on electronic invoicing in public procurement. Slovenia has made usage of software for tax purposes (»Davčna blagajna«) mandatory since 2014. Usage of electronic receipts (eInvoices or eReceipts) has made the public sector in Slovenia paperless. Yet receipts are still being issued only physically to consumers. They often discard the paper receipt, lose them or they fade away over time.
The goal of our thesis is to make receiving, administration and storing of electronic receipts easier for the consumer. We want to achieve that by studying the field of issuing electronic receipts, schema of e-SLOG, Slovenian and data protection legislation (GDPR).
As a final product of out thesis, we are going to develop a prototype of a mobile application for Android platform in an open source framework called Apache Cordova. And also, a prototype of a web application for storing electronic receipts. Consumer and business will be connected by sending XML documents through NFC protocol. Physical persons will therefore be able to view their receipts in graphic or table form.
