InvoiceNow for TallyPrime

Send and receive nationwide e-invoices over the Peppol network and submit your GST invoice data to IRAS — automatically, from right inside TallyPrime. No portals, no re-keying.

Can TallyPrime send InvoiceNow e-invoices in Singapore?

Yes. With Orson Automation’s InvoiceNow-Ready solution, TallyPrime sends and receives Peppol e-invoices over Singapore’s InvoiceNow network and submits GST invoice data to IRAS, directly from a Tally voucher. Documents travel through an accredited Peppol Access Point, so there is no separate portal and no re-keying.

What is InvoiceNow?

InvoiceNow is Singapore’s nationwide e-invoicing initiative (led by IMDA) built on the international Peppol network. It lets businesses exchange invoices directly system-to-system in a structured digital format, and — for GST-registered businesses — transmit invoice data to IRAS. Orson Automation’s InvoiceNow-Ready solution brings this straight into TallyPrime, so your team keeps working the way they already do.

How InvoiceNow works — the 5-corner model

You never send a file to your customer or to IRAS directly. Your invoice travels as structured data through accredited Access Points over the Peppol network — and for GST, a copy is reported to IRAS. That’s the “5-corner” model Singapore uses.

InvoiceNow 5-corner model: Supplier and Buyer exchange via Access Points over Peppol, with IRAS as corner 5

One document — understood by every system

A Peppol e-invoice is structured data, not a PDF — so it posts to the right ledger on both sides automatically. A Sales Invoice you raise in TallyPrime arrives in your customer’s system as a Purchase (or Bill), whether they run Xero, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, QuickBooks or any Peppol-ready software. And when they invoice you, it lands in TallyPrime as a Purchase Voucher — no re-keying, no PDF.

A Sales Invoice from TallyPrime becomes a Purchase in any Peppol-ready system, and vice versa

Sales side (issued)
Purchase side (auto-posted on receipt)

Documents you send (outward)

  • Sales Invoice
  • Credit Note
  • Purchase Order — to your suppliers
  • Invoice Response (accept / reject / acknowledge)
  • Order Response
  • GST data to IRAS — sales, plus purchases self-reported when not received via InvoiceNow

Documents you receive (inward)

  • Invoice → posts as a Purchase
  • Credit Note → posts as a Debit Note
  • Purchase Order → posts as a Sales Order
  • Invoice Response (status of invoices you sent)

Order documents (Purchase Order, Order Response) are available on order-enabled plans.

Frequently asked questions

What is Peppol?
Peppol is a global framework and network for exchanging electronic business documents in a standard format. Singapore was the first Peppol Authority outside Europe; IMDA governs the network locally and accredits solution and access-point providers.
What is the 5-corner model?
It describes how a document travels: (1) the supplier, (2) the supplier’s Access Point, (3) the buyer’s Access Point, (4) the buyer — and (5) IRAS, which receives the GST invoice data. You send from Tally; the Access Points handle delivery over Peppol and reporting to IRAS.

Do I need to change my accounting software?

You can still capture and, where required, report the transaction. We can also help your trading partners get connected so more of your invoicing becomes fully electronic over time.

Documents are exchanged only through accredited Access Points, and signed documents are archived with an audit trail and retained in line with IRAS record-keeping requirements.
