Self-billed E-Invoices

In a general scenario, e-invoice is not required for purchase invoices.

In a common scenario for imports, when the seller is not tax registered or not required to issue an e-invoice, a buyer is required to issue an e-invoice.

Note: In this process, supplier creates an invoice and buyer creates an e-invoice additionally in specific cases.
You can use these attributes to set up a rule to allow self-billed invoices for purchase invoices in the E-Invoice Configuration (lpmys1110m000) session:
  • Document Type field set to Purchase Invoice
  • Business Partner
  • Business Partner Set
  • Transaction Type

E-Invoicing is applicable if an e-invoice exists for the specified attributes of a purchase invoice. In case of imports, you must specify the required import details on the E-invoice. If the order is matching with receipt, the import reference details are defaulted from warehouse receipts when creating an E-Invoice.

Create and process a self-billed invoice

When a self-billed e-invoice is required, tax details are not specified in the supplier invoice. You can manage the taxes for these scenarios:
  • Use shifted tax (reverse charge) on the supplier invoice
  • Create a separate invoice only for tax purposes
    • You can use the tax on separate invoice tax code for this scenario

You can use the E-Invoice Configuration (lpmys1110m000) session to handle both the scenarios based on the transaction type, business partner and so on.

E-invoice creation for such a supplier invoice is a standalone process. In this process, purchase invoice can be registered and handled independently according to the standard procedure. E-Invoice creation is initiated using the Generate Self Billed Invoices (lpmys1220m000) session in Malaysia Localization.

If a purchase invoice related to order is processed, purchase invoice has to be matched and approved and finalized before e-invoice can be created. This is the process flow for self-billed purchase e-invoices:

If the purchase invoice is a cost invoice, the E-invoicing flow is performed after the finalization of cost invoices. This is the process flow for e-invoices related to cost invoices:
