چکیده
This paper examines the adoption of electronic invoicing in Finnish organizations. Drawing on qualitative interview data from four companies and two public organizations, our objective is to find factors affecting the rate of adoption of electronic invoicing. We begin with Rogers (1995) model and examine and illustrate the factors of relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, trialability, and observability. We then derive a more general set of factors affecting the rate of adoption of electronic invoicing in Finland. These factors include communication, technological readiness, and management support.
