E-Invoice With SQL Account
Make the switch to SQL Account and ensure your business stays compliant with LHDN E-Invoice.
Streamline Your Malaysian Business For E-Invoicing With SQL Account
The Malaysian Inland Revenue Board (LHDN) is making e-invoice mandatory for tax purposes. SQL Account is certified to comply with these regulations, making it a seamless solution for your business. E-invoicing is being rolled out in stages, with the first group of businesses needing to be compliant by August 1, 2024. By July 1, 2025, all businesses in Malaysia, regardless of size, will be required to use e-invoices. Make the switch to SQL Account and ensure your business stays compliant with LHDN regulations.
How SQL Accounting Assists Your Business In Adhering To LHDN E-Invoice Requirements?
According to the guidelines as of February 9, 2024, each e-invoice must contain 35 mandatory fields and 20 optional fields, making a total of 55 fields that need to be completed for successful valid e-invoice submission. SQL Account automates this process by storing all these field records, eliminating the need for repetitive manual entry.
For every e-invoice issued, you can track its status within SQL Account, including whether it has been submitted, validated, deemed invalid, or cancelled. This enables you to effortlessly monitor the status of all e-invoices through SQL Account.
Beyond standard sales invoices, certain transactions require e-invoice, including dividends, foreign income, foreign purchases, payments to agents, and cross-border dealings. SQL Account is equipped to support and comply with these requirements in accordance with LHDN guidelines, covering:
Our LHDN E-Invoice Features
MyInvois Ready Company Profile
SQL Account equips you to finalize your company profile with all necessary details for E-Invoice submission. It also highlights any missing information to ensure your profile is MyInvois Ready. We can now allow you to use the LHDN Preprod API for testing.
E-Invoice
Our streamlined invoicing process incorporates standard E-Invoice submission to MyInvois with a simple button click. It facilitates both individual and bulk submissions and provides you with the submission status and a countdown of 72 hours for any changes needed.
Consolidated E-Invoice
Certain businesses can submit consolidated E-Invoices once a month. SQL Account provides a user-friendly interface for submitting multiple invoices as a single consolidated E-Invoice to MyInvois.
Self-Billed E-Invoice
When your suppliers are unable to provide an E-Invoice, you are required to issue self-billed E-Invoices. With SQL Account, you can easily submit any purchase bills as a self-billed E-Invoice to MyInvois with just a click.
Seamlessly Import Transaction from Supplier E-Invoice
Effortlessly integrate supplier transactions into your SQL Account by importing E-Invoices directly from your suppliers. This streamlined process eliminates manual data entry, ensuring accuracy and saving time. With just a few clicks, you can import all relevant transaction details from the supplier’s E-Invoice, keeping your records up to date and aligned with SQL Account.
Cancelling an E-Invoice
You can cancel an E-Invoice, with a stated reason, within 72 hours of its submission to MyInvois. SQL Account features a countdown timer that indicates which invoices are still eligible for cancellation. This action can be easily performed in SQL Account with just a click.

How To Get Started With E-Invoice In Your Business?
LHDN offers businesses two methods for e-invoice compliance:
-
MyInvois Portal – The MyInvois Portal is a platform for taxpayers who are unable to issue an e-invoice through their own system or who do not have a system for issuing e-invoices. By logging in via the MyTax Portal, they can utilize the MyInvois Portal to fulfill their e-invoice obligations in accordance with the rules and requirements. Taxpayers can manually fill up all the mandatory fields, submit, view, cancel, or reject invoices, among other actions
-
SQL Accounting Software – Recognized as a leading accounting and business solution in Malaysia, trusted by over 270,000 businesses. Our software is user-friendly, supporting e-invoices and ensuring compliance with Malaysia’s Sales and Service Tax (SST), alongside a comprehensive suite for all your operational workflow and accounting standards.
Do I Need A Digital Cert?
A digital certificate is a secure electronic document used to verify the identity of a person, device, or server online. It plays a crucial role in ensuring that data transmitted over the internet is encrypted and secure, protecting it from unauthorized access and tampering.
A master certificate, on the other hand, is a primary digital certificate used by an organization to manage and secure communications across its entire system. It serves as a central point of trust, simplifying the management of multiple digital certificates within the organization. By using a master certificate, the SQL Accounting Software System ensures that all its communications are secure, thereby eliminating the need for existing SQL users to purchase separate digital certificates.
However, if you have specific needs or additional security requirements that necessitate the use of a personal digital certificate, you can acquire one from here. Digital certificates can be purchased from trusted certificate authorities (CAs), and it’s important to choose a reputable provider to ensure the highest level of security. Some of the well-known companies from which you can purchase digital certificates include:
– Pos Digicert Sdn Bhd
– MSC Trustgate.Com Sdn Bhd
– TM Technology Services Sdn Bhd
– Raffcomm Technologies Sdn Bhd
Acquiring a digital certificate from one of these companies will provide you with the assurance that your online interactions and data transfers are securely protected.
