What IRD-ready means

IRD-ready means invoices and credit notes carry what the IRD asks for and, when your company's IRD setting is on, are sent automatically and protected from silent change. This page says what changes on screen.

What "IRD-ready" means here

Penahak Accounting's invoices are IRD-ready: each carries the customer's PAN and name, a number from your own series, the date in BS, the fiscal year name, the taxable amount and the VAT. Whether your company sends them to the IRD depends on your company's IRD setting, kept by Penahak. This page is about what the screens do when that setting is on.

Which documents go to the IRD

DocumentSent as
Sales invoice (every form)A bill
Sales return (also when a provisional return is approved)A credit note naming the invoice
Cancelled invoiceA credit note naming the invoice, with your reason
Reversed sales returnA bill again, because it puts the sale back

Quotations, orders, delivery notes, goods delivery records, add-on vouchers, receipts and service jobs are not sent.

What changes when your company's IRD setting is on

AreaWhat you see
SendingEach saved invoice and return is sent by itself, a moment after it is saved. Nobody presses a button
DatesInvoices and returns can only be dated today. The date field cannot be changed
EditingA saved invoice cannot be edited or deleted: Edit and Delete are not offered. See Editing a saved invoice: what can and cannot change
CorrectionsA Take goods back with a sales return, or a Cancel an invoice on the day
PrintingThe first print is the original, in the number of copies your company set; later prints are counted and marked as reprints: Print and reprint invoices
Reference voucherThe customer's own bill number shows on the abbreviated invoice
Fiscal yearEach year needs its Fiscal year IRD name, or selling is blocked: The fiscal year
Missing billsInvoices and returns that did not reach the IRD are sent again automatically; a cancel is sent again from the IRD API screen: How bills reach the IRD, and what to check when one does not

What you can check yourself

The Materialized view report lists every invoice and return with a Sync with IRD column of Yes or No: The Materialized view report. Your accountant should look at it at least once a day.

What you need to keep right

  • The customer's PAN on the customer, or on the invoice for a walk-in buyer, so the bill carries it.
  • Your company's PAN, user name and password on the IRD API screen: Set up IRD for your company.
  • A Fiscal year IRD name on the active fiscal year.

Common questions

Our company has just switched IRD on. Can we still edit last month's invoices?

No. With IRD on, Edit and Delete are not offered on any saved invoice. Correct an older invoice with a sales return (Editing a saved invoice: what can and cannot change).

A walk-in buyer gives us a PAN. Where does it go?

On the invoice. On the abbreviated invoice, open the cash customer detail and enter the buyer's name and PAN (The abbreviated invoice for counter sales). Then the bill carries it.
