Hello,
Previously, we were using numeric serials for our invoices (e.g., 1, 2, 3 … 24568) as all invoices were published from one device.
Now, we have updated our system so that each branch can publish invoices with its own prefix, for example:
GG-INV-1, GG-INV-2, GG-INV-3, GG-CR-1, GG-CR-2
BD-INV-1, BD-INV-2, BD-INV-3, BD-CR-1, BD-CR-2
However, before applying this new format, we had already published one invoice and one credit note using the format:
GG-1 and GG-CR-1
Now we want to start using the new format from:
GG-INV-1 for invoices and GG-CR-20 for credit notes.
My question is:
- Is it acceptable to ignore the two previously published documents “GG-1” and “GG-CR-1” (which were the first submissions under the new CSID) and start using the new serial format from now (GG-INV-2, GG-CR-20)?
Kindly advise on the correct approach to ensure ZATCA compliance.
Thank you.
