What is the difference between MyInvois Portal and API integration?
Table of Contents
The MyInvois Portal is a web interface for users to manage e-Invoice activities directly, while API integration enables a business system to exchange e-Invoice data with MyInvois programmatically. The portal may suit businesses with lower transaction volumes or manual workflows. API integration can suit businesses that need to process invoices from accounting, ERP, billing, or other business systems.
Both approaches must comply with the applicable LHDN/HASiL requirements. The choice depends on transaction volume, technical resources, internal controls, and integration needs.
Key points
- The portal supports direct user interaction.
- API integration connects software systems with MyInvois services.
- API integration can reduce repetitive data entry for suitable workflows.
- Both approaches require accurate, compliant invoice data.
- Choose based on operational needs, volume, and technical capability.
