Frequently Asked Questions
What information is required to start using Advintek's service?
Businesses provide the invoice information needed for processing through a suitable channel such as secure upload, email, or system integration. Advintek’s Invoice Factory then validates and maps the information before processing it through the appropriate Zambia Smart Invoice workflow and maintaining the resulting electronic records.
Which invoice documents can Advintek support for Zambia?
Advintek can support relevant electronic invoice transactions within the Zambia Smart Invoice environment, including standard sales invoices, credit notes, and debit notes. ZRA’s Smart Invoice specifications include these transaction types, allowing businesses to manage different invoice adjustments through a structured electronic invoicing process.
Do I need an ERP or accounting integration?
Not necessarily. Businesses can provide invoice information through available submission methods, while organizations using ERP or accounting packages can pursue a certified invoicing system integration. ZRA identifies certified invoicing systems as the appropriate Smart Invoice option for taxpayers using accounting packages or ERP systems, with VSDC supporting the integration.
Does Advintek support Zambia Smart Invoice requirements?
Advintek’s solution is designed around Zambia’s Smart Invoice environment and can support structured invoice processing, validation, integration, and electronic record management. ZRA requires VAT-registered taxpayers to issue electronic invoices through Smart Invoice, making appropriate system readiness important for businesses covered by the requirement.
What happens when invoice information contains an error?
Invoice information can be checked through the validation stage before processing continues. Where required information is missing or inconsistent, the workflow can identify the issue so it can be corrected before the transaction proceeds, helping businesses maintain more accurate electronic invoice records and reduce avoidable processing problems.
