local digital invoice compliance

for example, these dont apply to my business but for  the rest of my country business apply, here the digital invoice is regulated by a law, can I use an external invoice creator or certifier in order to comply the law?

What kind of requirement do you need on invoice to comply?

Welcome to the Community, @juanpagg15.

 

You have the option to import your custom invoice(s) created outside the QuickBooks Online (QBO). Simply turn on the Import Style option through QuickBooks labs.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. In QBO, go to Settings ⚙️.
  2. Select QuickBooks labs under Your Company.

  3. Turn on Import Style.

I might have something that will work for you, Shubhakara Ganiga.

 

Currently, we can capture your customer's signature only when you're using the QuickBooks Online app. Here's a link for reference: Capture signatures using the QuickBooks Online app.

 

Aside from that, you can also look for a third-party app that can integrate e-signatures with QuickBooks Online.

 

Let us know how this goes so we can provide the help you need. Have a great day!

I don't think you understood the point sir. Here is a link from QBO support on e invoices in India to help you understand https://quickbooks.intuit.com/in/resources/gst-center/e-invoicing-in-gst/#:~:text=help%20the%20taxpa...

 

The irony is that QBO's India team publishes such articles and still has no facility for generating the e invoices. Let alone e Invoices QBO does not even have any option for E way bills. GST is in India since 2017, and till date you are not compliant. These features are too basic to even ask for, every software big or small has it in India. I really don't understand why its still not on QBO. 

 

Anyways if you guys know any app or any API that integrates with QBO for E way bills and E invoicing, please share with me. We are generating E invoices from a different software and then manually bringing the sales data into QBO. Really painstaking process.

No. 

Let me give you some context. In India, which is one of your markets, the sales tax applicable is called the GST. Under the law some provisions were introduced about a year back which say for every invoice you issue, you have to either manually or through a software, put up the details of the invoice (Customer GST number, Product code HSN, amount of invoice and tax etc. on the GST portal of the government. In return you will be issued a Unique reference number IRN and a QR code, which has to be mandatorily put up on the invoice before it is sent to the customer.

So this is applicable on businesses with high turnovers from 1 OCT 2020 and now from April 1 2021 it is applicable to everyone irrespective of turnover who is registered with the GST.

QBO does not seem to have plans to implement it. If not implemented users will not be compliant and will be forced to shift to other software to issue invoices. and manually entering them into QBO afterwards. This is too much of a headache and considering QBO was here to simplify we think it will make life more tough for us.

Is there any accounting app complied with yours?

If you talk about India, every small and big accounting platform is complying since the last 6-8 months. Surprisingly QBO is not. To name you a few you can check tally, busy, SAP, Clear tax etc. They are all compliant. The thing is nobody even tells us if QBO will ever be compliant on this or not. So it creates a lot of uncertainty over whether or not Indian users should remain on QBO or migrate? Zoho, one of your good competitors was compliant right from the beginning. Why QBO lags behind?

Frankly, I am not sure QBO will comply with yours in near future. They don't have any local support in India since last year. Explore other system and contact us in private should you need to purchase a 3rd party conversion service.
