Generate and submit simplified electronic invoices for Saudi Arabia

  • 發行項

Note

The functionality described in this article is meant to support the Phase 2 requirements of the E-invoicing implementation in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. For information about the legacy features meant to support the Phase 1 requirements of the E-invoicing implementation in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, see Generate QR codes and print them on receipts for Saudi Arabia.

This article provides an overview of the functionality for simplified electronic invoices (e-invoices) that are available for Saudi Arabia in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Commerce. This article also provides guidelines for setting up the functionality.

The electronic invoicing functionality that's available for Saudi Arabia in Commerce provides the following capabilities:

  • Generate an XML file of a simplified e-invoice when a sales transaction is concluded in Commerce point of sale (POS).
  • Generate a cryptographic stamp, or a digital signature, for the simplified e-invoice.
  • Generate and print a QR code for the simplified e-invoice that includes the cryptographic stamp.
  • Submit the simplified e-invoice from Commerce headquarters to Saudi Arabian tax authorities (Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority [ZATCA]) for reporting purposes.

For more information about the electronic invoicing requirements for Saudi Arabia, see the E-Invoicing portal by ZATCA.

The high-level, end-to-end process flow in Commerce for Saudi Arabia is as follows:

  1. When the checkout process is completed for a sales transaction in POS, POS uses Commerce Scale Unit (CSU) to send the Commerce runtime (CRT) a request to generate and digitally sign a simplified e-invoice. The Fiscal registration framework and an internal connector are used to implement the generation and digital signing of simplified e-invoices.

    Note

    If POS is in offline mode, the generation and digital signing of an e-invoice occur in the local copy of CRT on the POS machine.

  2. CRT generates a simplified e-invoice in an XML format. Electronic reporting (ER) is used to implement the XML format of e-invoices for Saudi Arabia. A common format is used for simplified e-invoices in Commerce and regular tax e-invoices in Dynamics 365 Finance.

  3. CRT sends Commerce headquarters a request to provide a digital certificate.

  4. Commerce headquarters extracts the digital certificate from Azure Key Vault and sends it back to CRT. For more information about how Commerce handles digital certificates, see the Configure the digital signature parameters section of this article.

    Note

    If POS is in offline mode, the local copy of CRT uses a digital certificate that's locally installed on the POS machine.

  5. CRT calculates the invoice hash, digitally signs the e-invoice data, and generates a QR code that includes the invoice hash and digital signature data. CRT also updates the XML invoice with the invoice hash and digital signature data. The e-invoice, the invoice hash, the QR code, and other information are saved in the channel database in a fiscal transaction that's linked to the sales transaction.

  6. POS requests a sales receipt from CRT. CRT builds the receipt, including the QR code, and sends it back to POS. POS sends the receipt to the receipt printer.

  7. Commerce headquarters uses Commerce Data Exchange (CDX) to download the sales transaction data together with fiscal transactions from CSU. The data is stored in the headquarters database throughout the life of your production environment.

  8. Commerce headquarters extracts the simplified e-invoice in the XML format from the fiscal transaction that's linked to the sales transaction. It then submits the e-invoice to ZATCA. The submission is done by integrating with the Electronic Invoicing service. For more information about the common electronic invoicing capabilities that are available to Saudi Arabia, see Customer electronic invoices in Saudi Arabia.

Configure the digital signature parameters

To digitally sign and submit simplified e-invoices, you must obtain so-called Cryptographic Stamp Identifiers (CSIDs) from ZATCA. CSIDs are in the form of digital certificates. For more information about how to obtain CSIDs, see Electronic invoicing onboarding in Saudi Arabia. You must obtain a CSID for each POS register that you will use, because sequential numbering and digital signing of simplified e-invoices are done per POS register.

The digital certificates that will be used to digitally sign simplified e-invoices are stored in Key Vault. For the offline mode of the Store Commerce app, signing can also be done by using a digital certificate that's stored in the local storage of the machine that the Store Commerce app is installed on. The User-defined certificate profiles for retail stores feature enables configuration of certificates that are stored in Key Vault. It also supports failover to offline mode when Key Vault or Commerce headquarters isn't available. This feature extends the Manage secrets for retail channels feature.

To configure certificates and certificate profiles that can be used for digital signing, follow the steps in Set up certificate profiles. You must configure a separate certificate profile for each CSID that you obtain from ZATCA.

After you configure certificate profiles, follow these steps.

  1. Go to Retail and Commerce > Channel setup > Fiscal integration > Connector technical profiles, and select the connector technical profile that you created earlier.
  2. To configure certificate profiles per POS register, select Override, and create records for all registers that you must specify CSIDs for.
  3. In each record, on the Device FastTab, in the Certificate profile field, specify a corresponding certificate profile. For more information about how to override connector technical profile settings, see Create connector technical profiles.

Specify ER configurations

You must download the latest versions of the following configurations from the Dataverse repository. For more information, see Import Electronic reporting (ER) configurations from Dataverse.

  • E-invoice generation configurations:

    • Invoice model data model
    • Invoice model mapping for commerce (SA) data model mapping
    • Sales e-invoice (SA) format

  • E-invoice submission configurations:

    • Customer invoice context model data model
    • Retail channel data data model
    • Retail fiscal document mapping data model mapping
    • Retail fiscal document format format

You must also configure legal entity–specific parameters of the e-invoice format.

  1. In the Electronic reporting workspace, select Reporting configurations.

  2. On the Configurations page, select the Sales e-invoice (SA) format that you imported earlier, and then select Configurations > Application specific parameters > Setup.
