SAP Business One ERP with ZRA Smart Invoice Integration

Smart Invoice introduced by ZRA (Zambia Revenue Authority), is a framework that makes use of ERP systems to authorise the generation of e-invoices and e-receipts.

ACEteK has a ZRA Smart Invoice software Integration for SAP Business One. We have studied the Smart Invoice platform and built expertise in integrating, SAP Business One ERP system to Smart Invoice as per the requirements detailed on the ZRA Smart Invoice Portal.

Smart Invoice was introduced to promote transparency of transactions, prevent fraudulent purchases where no actual goods movement occurred, and reduce the occurrence of false refund claims. Smart Invoice made it easy to match input tax and output tax, which was a major challenge earlier in Zambia. It also encouraged businesses to issue invoices and receipts while preventing the loss of records due to a completely digital platform.

Key things to remember about Smart Invoice in Zambia

After sales information is captured and the transactions are initiated by the system, they are transmitted to the ZRA in real-time for the generation of e-receipts and e-invoices.
Post-authentication of every sales transaction, the ZRA adds the Anti-Fake code fields on the e-receipts and e-invoices generated.
A business has many options to connect to Smart Invoice to generate e-receipts and e-invoices; system-to-system connection, client app on mobile and desktop.
If a business uses business management software, it can connect to Smart Invoice using the system-to-system connection for real-time generation of e-invoices or e-receipts.
For better security during data transmission, all data is encrypted when it is transmitted from the taxpayer’s end to the ZRA. The public key infrastructure serve is in place to facilitate this.

What are the key features of an invoice or receipt generated using Smart Invoice?

The e-invoice or e-receipt generated by ZRA’s Smart Invoice Zambia framework adds the following fields:

SDC ID – This is the device id where the invoice was issued from.
QR Code – This is a Quick reference Code used to verify the authenticity of the e-invoice by scanning.
VSDC date – This is the VSDC response date-time
Internal data and Fiscal signature. – These are acknowledgement codes from ZRA for an already uploaded invoice.
