Digital invoicing can cover sales to registered and unregistered buyers. Your business obligations determine the reporting setup; buyer type alone does not. See FBR’s [legal provisions]() for the applicable requirements. ### Prepared without re-typing Invoice numbers follow your sequence, tax is calculated from the rates you save, and repeat buyer details are filled from the buyer record. The fields your accountant used to type by hand arrive already correct. ### Reported when issued, not at month end FBR receives each sales-tax invoice as soon as it is created, so nothing waits in a folder for the filing deadline. An invoice that needs attention shows up the same day. ### An answer kept for every invoice Accepted invoices return an FBR invoice reference number and a QR code. The submission log keeps the time, the status and FBR’s response, so a question about any sale has one place to look. ## One tour of the whole invoice workflow Prepare, submit and track invoices, then give your accountant the reports and access they need. ### Prepare invoices Automatic numbering, tax from your saved rates, and repeat buyer details recalled for the next sale. ![The E-Invoicing invoice editor with buyer details and sales tax calculated]() The invoice editor, with tax calculated ### Bulk import Upload an Excel or CSV export and map your columns onto the fields FBR expects. ![Importing a month of sales-tax invoices from an Excel spreadsheet]() Importing invoices from a spreadsheet ### Templates Print or download invoices with the tax breakdown, the FBR reference number and the QR code. ![A printed sales-tax invoice with its FBR reference number and verification QR code]() A printed invoice with its FBR QR code ### Responses Real-time submission to FBR IRIS, with the reference number and status kept against the sale. ![The E-Invoicing invoice list with an accepted FBR sales-tax invoice and its reference number]() An accepted invoice and FBR’s response ### Reports Invoice totals, tax collected and submission status in one view, ready to export. ![The E-Invoicing dashboard with invoice totals and sales tax reports]() Invoice totals and tax collected ### Access Accountant, billing and manager roles keep each task in the right hands. ![User accounts and access level settings in E-Invoicing]() User accounts and access settings ## Your accounting software stays Invoices raised in SAP, Odoo, QuickBooks or Shopify reach FBR through E-Invoicing, and the reference number returns to the sale.

It covers the sales-tax invoices your registered business must report under the applicable FBR requirements. Buyers can be registered or unregistered. We help set up the invoicing and POS workflows your business needs, with the right customer details for each sale. ### Do we have to leave our accounting software? No. Keep SAP, Odoo, QuickBooks or Shopify. Invoices raised in those systems reach FBR through E-Invoicing and the reference number returns to the sale. A custom system can send invoices to the platform directly. ### Can we import invoices we have already issued? Yes. Upload an Excel or CSV export and the platform maps your columns onto the fields FBR expects. This is the usual route when the invoices already live in an ERP or an older system, and each imported invoice keeps its FBR response. ### Where does the FBR reference number appear? Every accepted invoice carries its FBR invoice reference number and QR code in the dashboard. The same details print on the invoice template, so the buyer can check the document and your team can find it later. ### Can our accountant work in the system too? Yes. Each person gets their own account with a role, so invoice creation, reporting and administration stay in the right hands. Every action is recorded, and the FBR connection details are encrypted. ### What do we need before the first submission? Your business details, your NTN or STRN, and access to the FBR IRIS account you use today. We set up the connection, then send a test invoice with you to confirm the fields and the response. ## Watch an invoice become a reference number Bring an invoice you already issue. We show the full path: preparation, submission to FBR, the reference number and QR code, and the record left behind. [Book a free demo]() [Contact the team]()
