The assistant · Ask your books

Ask your books in plain words, and let them do the work — with your say-so

An assistant inside the product that reads your books and answers with their real figures: who owes us, what the profit is, how much VAT is due. And it does the bookkeeping from one sentence — an invoice, a receipt, an expense, a journal — writing nothing until it has shown you the exact amounts and you have agreed.

  • Every figure in an answer comes from the books themselves, never from memory
  • Every action is shown with its exact amounts before it is written, and can be undone after
  • It sees only what your permission sees, and respects locked periods and issued documents
  • It runs inside the Kingdom on Oracle Cloud; your data never leaves

The assistant never issues an invoice or posts a journal on its own: you are the one who clicks «yes».

How the assistant works From the Grow plan

Sales and invoicing

Quotes that become tax or simplified invoices, credit notes and receipts allocated against their invoices, and a bilingual document your customer receives by link or email and pays by card — with every document raising its own journal the moment it is issued.

  • A quote becomes an invoice in one actionTax or simplified, numbered without gaps, with the journal raised at issue.
  • A receipt allocated against its invoicesAgainst specific invoices or oldest first, so you know what paid for what.
  • A bilingual document with a public link and PDFReaches your customer by email, prints from the server, and is paid by card from its link.

A tax invoice after issue: the QR, the ZATCA status, the accounting entry and the source document, on one screen.

E-invoicing

A QR code and hash chain on every invoice, and phase-2 integration from inside the product: device onboarding with an OTP from the Fatoora portal, signed UBL 2.1 XML, clearance for tax invoices and reporting for simplified ones, and every document's status in front of you — with no third-party unit.

  • Phase 1 from the first invoiceA TLV QR code and a hash chain on tax and simplified invoices alike.
  • Phase 2 built inA signing key, an OTP from the Fatoora portal, compliance checks, then the production certificate — all from Settings.
  • The status in front of you, with the reasonCleared, reported, waiting to send, or rejected exactly as ZATCA returned it.

Purchases and expenses

Purchase orders that become supplier bills, debit notes, payments allocated against their bills, a quick expense in one screen, scanned bills read into drafts — and approval before posting for those who want it.

  • A purchase order, then a billConverted in one action, with the journal at posting: expense or inventory, input VAT and payables.
  • The bill is read from its photoPhotograph or upload it; the supplier, date, amounts and VAT are read into a draft you review.
  • Approval before postingAmount limits, delegates and escalation for supplier bills, before they touch the books.

Supplier bills by status and due date, with what is overdue.

Banking and reconciliation

Bank and cash accounts in their currencies, a statement that arrives by paste or as a CSV, Excel or OFX file, rules you write once, matching against existing journals, transfers between accounts, and a reconciliation that will not close while a difference remains.

  • The statement by paste or fileCSV, Excel or OFX; headers are read in Arabic and English, and the encoding is detected on its own.
  • Rules that match for you"Anything containing this word goes to that account" — written once, working every month.
  • A reconciliation that closes at zeroThe difference is always on screen, and it will not close until it is zero.

Inventory and manufacturing

Warehouses, weighted-average or first-in-first-out costing, adjustments, counts and transfers, cost of goods sold posted with every invoice, and bills of material, build orders and kits.

  • A movement behind every lineEvery sale or purchase line actually moves stock, and cost of sales posts itself.
  • Weighted average or FIFOChoose the method; cost layers are kept, so it is known which consignment each unit left from.
  • Bills of material and build ordersA build order consumes the components through work in progress and produces the item at its cost.

Payroll journals from Basmtak HR

For Basmtak HR customers: approving the run there creates the accrual journal in your books with the GOSI share, then the payment journal when it is paid, split across branches and departments and linked to its source. The rest of the product works fully without this link.

  • Accrual, GOSI and paymentThe approved run creates the accrual journal and the GOSI share, and the payment journal when paid.
  • Split by branch and departmentThe journal arrives split as HR knows it, not as one lump on one account.
  • Never twiceEvery journal carries its source key; redelivery cannot create a second one.

Fixed assets

Each asset with its cost, in-service date, life and method — straight-line or declining — a schedule per asset, a monthly run that posts the journal and catches up on missed months, allocation across cost centres, and disposal at a gain or a loss.

  • A register that ties the asset to its billCost, in-service date, life and salvage value, with a link to the bill.
  • Monthly depreciation with its journalRunning the month posts the depreciation journal for every asset and catches up on what was missed.
  • Disposal at a gain or a lossSelling or writing off an asset is a disposal journal, with a sales invoice if there is a buyer.

VAT, withholding tax and Zakat

The VAT return is built from your documents in the layout of ZATCA's form and reconciled against the VAT accounts, and recording its filing locks its periods; withholding tax on payments to non-residents with its journal and report; and the Zakat base from the balance sheet.

  • A return in ZATCA's box orderStandard-rated, zero-rated and exempt sales, purchases, and the net — as on the form.
  • Withholding taxOn payments to non-resident suppliers, with its rate, journal and report.
  • ZakatA Zakat base computed from the balance sheet, with a worksheet to attach to the filing.
