E-Invoice
1 Module Introduction
The Electronic Invoice Module is a sub-module of the Restaurant Management Module. Its core function is to centrally manage the electronic invoice configurations of catering groups and their affiliated stores, enabling the creation and maintenance of taxpayer entities, as well as the configuration of store tax IDs and prepaid invoice tax IDs, with the ability to designate specific taxpayer entities. Through centralized configuration, this module achieves unified management and control of taxpayer entities at the group level, ensures standardized and accurate invoice issuance, and adapts to the nationwide promotion trend of full electronic invoices.
