Saudi Arabia: ZATCA QR on invoices
ZATCA QR is typically required for compliant invoice representations. In Xfatora, the QR is generated from key invoice fields (seller, VAT, timestamp, totals) and can be rendered in invoice HTML/PDF output.
Recommended rollout:
- Configure seller/legal identity details once
- Enable ZATCA for the correct scope (all invoices or KSA-only customers)
- Run a test invoice and confirm QR appears
- Roll out to production and add an audit checklist
Global / multi-tenant e-invoicing processing
For multi-tenant deployments and regulated markets, e-invoicing processing is often applied immediately after invoice creation.
Recommended rollout:
- Stage the configuration in a test tenant
- Run test invoices and verify the processing pipeline
- Roll out tenant-by-tenant with monitoring
Operational controls
- Keep a checklist per tenant: enable flags, seller identity, VAT number, test invoice output
- Define a “compliance owner” role responsible for settings changes
- Capture evidence: PDFs, invoice IDs, timestamps for audit requirements
FAQ
### Is this only for Saudi Arabia?
No. Saudi ZATCA is one implementation. The broader e-invoicing processing approach can support other compliance requirements depending on your enabled modules and configuration.
### How do we validate the invoice output?
Generate a test invoice and verify:
- QR presence (where required)
- Seller/VAT identity correctness
- Timestamps and totals match the invoice record
### Do customers outside KSA get the QR?
You can scope compliance behavior. Many teams use “KSA-only” rules so non-KSA customers are unaffected.
