Frequently asked questions

In the supplier portal (Coupa), you will find the status of your invoice and the due date. You can view the historical data. The manual below provides full details.

When you enter your IBAN, you have to leave out 'BE' and the 3 following digits, as well as the last 2 digits.

When you entered your new account number on the supplier portal, it was not immediately transferred to Luminus. In order to do so, you must update your profile.

How do I update my profile?

• Go to PROFILE > information requests. (You will see the information that Luminus currently has about you.)
• Under Bank details, select “IBAN” then “add” and “add remit to address”. Here you can choose to add the remit to address you require or create a new remit to address.
• Once you have completed this process, click at the bottom to send it for approval.
• Once Luminus has validated the details, your new account number will be registered with us.

You can change the portal language at the very bottom of the page. Click on the language and select your preferred language.
