The taxable type LHDN receives is arithmetic

You can say where the tax type on a submitted e-invoice line actually comes from — recomputed from the line's tax amount rather than…

Two fields with the same name

Step 1 — Find the field that looks like the answer

You will know which of two similarly named things you are looking at.

Step 2 — Watch the value be replaced

You will know what actually happens at submission.

Step 3 — Name the one case where your choice survives

You will know the exception, and it is narrow.

What your submitted data can show

Step 4 — Check the rule against what was actually sent

You will test the rule on your own data rather than take it on faith.

What you do
  1. Take a day of your To IRB listing and read each line's taxable type…

Step 5 — Understand where a zero amount comes from

You will know where not applicable comes from.

Where to fix it

Step 6 — Decide where to look when one is wrong

You will stop fixing this in the wrong place.

What you do
  1. Fix the rate on the line and the type follows
