Issue A subscription Invoice

The Subscription Invoice Issuance Service is an online feature on SPL platform for individuals and businesses to generate official invoices for paid subscriptions such as SMEs shipping bundles, advanced logistics, P.O. Boxes, or recurring delivery plans, for use in accounting, taxes, and audits.

It is used after purchasing or renewing subscriptions to obtain documented proof containing subscription details, value, validity period, and paid amounts. The process starts with user login to splonline.com.sa or app, navigating to 'Invoices & Subscriptions' or 'Account Management,' viewing active and past subscriptions list.

The user selects the desired subscription (e.g., monthly/annual shipping bundle), clicks 'Issue Invoice' for a preview showing invoice number, user/business name, commercial registry, subscription details (type, duration, shipment volume), paid amount, payment/expiry dates, and verification code. The invoice can be downloaded as PDF, printed directly, or emailed/shared, potentially requiring nominal fees or sufficient balance. Post-issuance, it logs in account history and is verifiable via SPL portal using its number, facilitating financial reports or dealings with tax authorities or banks.
