Basic - How To Prepare Master Data for E-Invoicing (Clients, Items, Vendors)

1.0 Master Data

Master data preparation is essential for E-Invoicing, as accurate Item, Client, and Vendor information

ensures smooth document submission, minimizes validation errors, and supports compliance with IRBM

requirements.


  1. Item

Item data is the most essential component in E-Invoicing, as is required in both Sales and Purchasing modules. Without proper item setup, these transactions cannot proceed, and E-Invoice generation or submission will fail. 


Accurate item details ensure compliance and smooth integration with IRBM. The setup for item related E-Invoicing information is saved under the Item Module - E-Invoice Info section. This is where you define all necessary item-level details required for generating and submitting E-Invoices accurately.
