Every fiscal document, issued digitally from Odoo

The integration works on top of the invoicing, inventory and withholding flows your team already uses. Nobody has to learn a new system.

Invoices, credit and debit notes

Issued from your sales journals with the control number assigned by the digital printer. Credit and debit notes automatically carry the data of the invoice they affect.

Dispatch guides

Delivery orders numbered by the digital printer as soon as the transfer is validated, with vehicle, driver and weight on the document.

VAT and income tax withholding vouchers

Vouchers issued to your vendors through the digital printer, and the withholdings your customers apply to you reported so they appear in the sales ledger.

Bolívares, foreign currency and IGTF

Totals in bolívares per VAT rate, the foreign-currency equivalent, discounts, the IGTF collected and the payment methods, on every document.

Official PDF and e-mail delivery

Download the official PDF, send it to your customer by e-mail and share the public verification link, all from the document itself.

Status query and annulment

Check the status of any document at any time. Accounting managers annul it with its reason, which is sent to the digital printer, and the journal entry is cancelled with it. No hand-made changes.

Invoice faster, spend less
and sleep easy

Digital invoicing is not just a legal requirement: it removes costs, errors and waiting times from your daily operation.

Head office, branches, field sales and your online store issue legal invoices under the same series, without hardware in every location.

Digital invoicing questions, answered

What changes with Providencia SNAT/2026/00093?

Published in Official Gazette No. 43,484 on 21 October 2026, it ends the exclusive obligation of the fiscal printer for face-to-face businesses: each taxpayer freely chooses to issue its fiscal documents through digital means, an authorized digital printer or a fiscal printer. It takes effect 180 days after publication, and if you change your issuance method you must notify the SENIAT office of your fiscal domicile. We guide you through the whole process.

Is digital invoicing legal in Venezuela?

Yes. Providencia SNAT/2024/000102 regulates the issuance of invoices and other fiscal documents through digital printers authorized by the SENIAT. Odoo connects with The Factory HKA, an authorized digital printer, which assigns the control number to every document.

Do I still need a fiscal printer?

Not for the documents you issue digitally. You can also combine both models: digital invoicing on the journals you choose and fiscal printers where you still need them, for example at the point of sale. Each document is issued through a single channel.

What happens if the service does not answer?

The document is numbered when it is confirmed and Odoo retries the issuance automatically with that same number. If the digital printer rejects it, you see the reason, fix the data and send it again: no document is lost and no number is skipped.

Do my ledgers and reports keep working?

Yes. The control number assigned by the digital printer is written on the document, so the purchase and sales ledgers, withholding reports and the rest of the Venezuelan localization keep working as usual.
