Governikus COM Despina

Simplified access to transport infrastructures

✓ Communication between specialist and transport procedures within the framework of XTA
✓ Authority-to-authority communication with automated access to OSCI address data
✓ Secure, confidential and verifiable communication

Thanks to the XTA web service interface, Governikus COM Despina realizes communication between specialist and transport procedures, regardless of the communication protocols used during transport.

COM Despina supports both DVDV-based OSCI application scenarios(COM Despina DVDV/OSCI Edition) and Peppol-based AS4 communication (COM Despina Peppol/AS4 Edition).

COM Despina is part of the Governikus application (product of the IT-Planungsrat) and is therefore available to the federal government, the federal states and their local authorities. The application ensures continuous and demand-oriented further development.

3 good reasons for Governikus COM Despina

Easy access to OSCI

XTA-compliant messages from specialized procedures can be transferred to the OSCI infrastructure via the standardized XTA web service (and vice versa).

Two editions for different requirements

Governikus COM Despina DVDV/OSCI Edition

This edition can be used in several scenarios. Via XTA, the application level of the specialized procedures and the OSCI transport level are decoupled. The DVDV/OSCI edition enables both authority-to-authority communication and authority-to-postbox/service account communication. For this purpose, COM Despina accesses Governikus COM Tauri (OSCI Manager). For authority-to-authority communication, the OSCI address data is determined in an automated process via the German Administrative Services Directory (DVDV). With the data transferred from the DVDV, an OSCI message is built and sent.

Governikus COM Despina Peppol/AS4 Edition

The Peppol/AS4 Edition primarily enables the electronic data exchange in the XInvoice standard according to the European Directive as well as the e-invoice law based on it. Version 2 of the Peppol/AS4 version is supported. Via a connection to Governikus MultiMessenger, XInvoice scenarios can be implemented with this edition according to the architecture guideline on e-invoices of the IT Planning Council.
