Bilingual Arabic/English print formats with correct RTL layout, translated labels, and locale-correct number and date formatting
Whitelisted REST-callable method to assemble and validate a structured e-invoice payload from ERPNext data
Scheduler events (`scheduler_events`) to queue documents for period summaries, transmission, or archival
Reverse-charge and place-of-supply handling wired into tax computation rather than manual entry
Client scripts for real-time field prompts and validation on the invoice form
Role profiles and permission rules restricting who can post or amend tax-bearing documents
Idempotent, re-runnable install with fixtures for custom fields and property setters so upgrades stay clean
Audit trail linking every generated report row and e-invoice payload back to its source ERPNext document
Compatible with Frappe/ERPNext v15 and v16, built to match your bench version
Period-return reconciliation view with drill-down from summary totals to individual invoices

About this Product

Businesses running ERPNext in Qatar hit a wall when they try to line up their books with General Tax Authority (GTA) expectations. ERPNext core gives you tax templates, tax categories, and a Sales Register, but it has no notion of a GTA-structured return, no bilingual Arabic/English invoice that satisfies local presentation rules, and no scaffolding for the structured e-invoicing formats Qatar is moving toward. Finance teams end up exporting to spreadsheets, re-keying tax figures, and hand-formatting Arabic print layouts every period — work that is slow, error-prone, and impossible to audit cleanly. This is exactly where native ERPNext runs out of road.

ECOSIRE builds a dedicated Frappe app — a proper installable app with its own module, not a pile of loose customizations — that layers Qatar tax intelligence on top of your existing ERPNext. We add configuration DocTypes to capture GTA registration details, tax treatment mappings, and the Arabic/English field pairs your invoices need. Server-side logic lives in hooks.py document events (for example validate and on_submit on Sales Invoice) and in whitelisted server scripts so tax figures, place-of-supply, and reverse-charge treatment are computed and locked at submission rather than trusted from manual entry. GTA-aligned tax reports are delivered as Query/Script Reports plus scheduled summaries, so a period return reconciles directly to submitted Sales and Purchase Invoices with drill-down to source.

For e-invoicing readiness we build the hook points ahead of the mandate rather than bolting them on later. That means a structured invoice payload assembled from your ERPNext data, a whitelisted REST-callable method to emit or validate that payload, and scheduler events that can queue documents for transmission or archival once the GTA's technical specification and endpoints are finalized. Bilingual invoicing is handled with print formats and client scripts that render Arabic and English side by side, pull the right translated field labels, and keep number and date formatting correct in both directions. Role profiles and permission rules make sure only authorized finance users can post or amend tax-bearing documents, and every generated report and payload is tied back to auditable source records.

Because every Qatar deployment differs — chart of accounts, existing customizations, ERPNext version, and how far along the GTA e-invoicing rollout is at the time — this is delivered build-to-order. We start with a short scoping call, confirm the exact scope in writing, then build against Frappe/ERPNext v15 or v16 to match your bench. Typical delivery is one working week from confirmed scope. You get the installable source code for your version, a UAT pass on a staging bench, a documented rollback plan, training for your finance users, and a post-go-live support window. Nothing is charged or promised as an instant download — ECOSIRE builds, installs, and stands behind it.

What you get

  • Installable Frappe app source code built for your ERPNext version (v15 or v16)
  • Installation and configuration on your bench, including fixtures, custom fields, and role profiles
  • Technical documentation covering DocTypes, hooks, whitelisted methods, and report definitions
  • User guide plus a live training session for your finance team
  • Post-go-live support window for defect fixes and configuration questions
  • UAT on a staging bench with a documented, tested rollback plan
  • Git repository handover with full commit history and versioned releases

Who this is for

Finance & Tax Manager

Owns the periodic GTA return and needs figures that reconcile to submitted invoices without spreadsheet re-keying, plus a clean audit trail for review.

ERPNext System Administrator

Runs the bench and wants a proper installable app with clean fixtures and hooks — not brittle in-place edits — that survives version upgrades to v15/v16.

CFO / Finance Director in Qatar

Needs the business demonstrably ready for GTA tax compliance and the coming e-invoicing mandate, with bilingual invoices and a defensible, auditable process.

Managed-Services / Implementation Partner

Delivers ERPNext to Qatar clients and wants a supported, documented compliance app with source handover rather than building GTA logic from scratch each time.

Frequently Asked Questions about ERPNext Qatar VAT & E-Invoicing Readiness

Is this a ready-made app I can download and install today?

No. This is build-to-order. ECOSIRE scopes, builds, installs, and supports it for your specific ERPNext deployment. There is no instant download, and we make no claim that one exists.

How long does delivery take?

Typical delivery is one working week from confirmed scope. After a short scoping call we confirm the exact requirements in writing, then build, run UAT on staging, and deploy. Timelines depend on the complexity of your chart of accounts and existing customizations.

How does support and updates work after go-live?

Every build includes a post-go-live support window for defect fixes and configuration questions. Because Qatar's e-invoicing rules are still being rolled out by the GTA, we can extend support or ship updates under a separate agreement as the technical specification and endpoints are finalized.

Which ERPNext versions do you support?

We build against Frappe/ERPNext v15 and v16 and match your bench version. The app is packaged as a standard Frappe app so it installs and upgrades cleanly with bench.

Can it fully submit e-invoices to the GTA automatically today?

We build the readiness hooks now — structured payload assembly, a whitelisted REST-callable method, and scheduler events for queuing. Full automated transmission is enabled once the GTA's official technical specification and endpoints are published; the architecture is designed so that final step is a configuration and connector task, not a rebuild.

Do we get the source code?

Yes. You receive the installable source code for your version and a git repository handover with full commit history. You are not locked to ECOSIRE to run or maintain what we build.

How does bilingual Arabic/English invoicing work?

We deliver print formats and client scripts that render Arabic and English side by side with correct RTL layout, translated field labels, and locale-correct number and date formatting — driven from your existing ERPNext invoice data.
