- Issuing an E-Invoice: When there is a transaction, either a sale or adjustments to an e-invoice, the supplier creates an e-invoice and sends it to IRBM for validation through the MyInvois Portal or via API.
- E-Invoice Validation: IRBM performs real-time validation of the e-invoice to ensure that it meets all required standards and criteria. The supplier receives a Unique Identifier Number via the MyInvois Portal or API once the e-invoice is validated.
- Validated E-Invoice Notification: Once an e-Invoice is approved, both the supplier and buyer will receive notifications via the MyInvois Portal or API.
- E-Invoice Sharing: Validated e-invoices have a QR code, which may be utilised to verify their existence and status on the MyInvois Portal. After the e-invoice has been cleared, suppliers can share the QR code with purchasers to ensure transparency.
- E-Invoice Rejection or Cancellation: The buyer or supplier can reject or cancel the e-invoice within 72 hours of validation, as long as they provide sufficient justifications.
- MyInvois Portal Accessibility: Suppliers and buyers can both request and retrieve e-Invoice data through the MyInvois Portal.
