Step 2 — Sort your supplier list into two groups

You know roughly how much of GadgetSphere's purchasing this touches.

What you do
  1. Go down your supplier list once and mark those two groups

Step 3 — Take the rule from LHDN, not from BigLedger

You will not flag a supplier on a hunch.

What this step names
  1. Miss one and it is never reported at all
  2. By anybody
  3. Nothing raises an alarm

You know where to go when a field on a self-billed e-invoice is wrong.

You will stop looking for it in the wrong places.
