SphereComply sits between connected ERP systems and the organisation’s Accredited Service Provider (ASP), applying one controlled process for outbound and inbound invoices: validation, approval, transmission and audit evidence.

Product Overview

Preparing for UAE e-invoicing involves more than generating an XML file. Businesses need to manage data mapping, validation, approvals, corrections, transmission, incoming invoices and audit evidence across their existing systems.

SphereComply provides a central, ERP-neutral integration and control layer between ERP systems and the ASP, applying one consistent, auditable process that can extend across further ERP systems as the environment grows.

  1. 01Different ERP systems requiring consistent compliance handling

How It Works

Outbound Invoices

  • Step 1

    Invoice created

    SphereComply supports outbound invoices received from connected ERP systems as well as invoices created manually by authorised users. This supports business units that do not generate every invoice through the organisation's main ERP.

  • Step 2

    Data mapped

    Invoice data is mapped into the controlled invoice model.

  • Step 3

    Invoice validated

    The invoice is validated against applicable PINT AE rules.

  • Step 4

    Approval applied

    Approval is applied according to configured value thresholds.

  • Step 5

    Invoice transmitted

    The approved invoice is transmitted through the ASP.

Inbound Invoices

  • Step 1

    Invoice received

    An inbound invoice is received through the ASP.

  • Step 2

    Invoice validated

    The received invoice is validated.

  • Step 3

    Review applied

    Review or approval is applied according to configured rules.

  • Step 4

    Invoice posted

    The invoice is posted, or returned, to the connected ERP.

Users and Access Control

Access follows defined roles, with segregation of duties enforced between preparation, approval and administration.

  • Administrator

    Configures the platform, ERP adapters, approval rules and tenant setup within SphereComply.

  • AR / AP Clerk

    Prepares and reviews outbound and inbound invoice data within the controlled workflow.

  • Finance Manager

    Reviews and approves invoices routed for approval according to configured value thresholds.

  • Compliance Officer

    Reviews invoice history, audit evidence and control records for compliance and audit purposes.

Who It Is For

  • Finance and tax teams preparing for UAE e-invoicing
  • Organisations operating more than one ERP system
  • Business groups managing multiple companies or business units
  • Organisations needing consistent invoice governance across connected units

Business Outcomes

  • Consistent compliance control

    Apply one governed e-invoicing process across connected ERP systems and business units.

  • Reduced ERP customisation

    Keep shared mapping, validation, workflow and audit controls within the integration layer instead of rebuilding them separately in every ERP.

  • Better invoice visibility

    Give authorised finance and compliance teams better visibility across invoice stages, exceptions and approval status.

  • Stronger audit readiness

    Maintain a reconstructable history of invoice actions, document versions and corrections, supporting preparation for compliance review and audit inspection.

Engagement Approach

An indicative engagement approach, not a guaranteed implementation plan. Actual scope, sequencing and timing are confirmed during the requirements discussion.

  1. 01

    Understand the ERP landscape

    Review the connected ERP systems and business units in scope.

  2. 02

    Review invoice data and workflows

    Review existing outbound and inbound invoice processes and data.

  3. 03

    Configure mapping and validation

    Configure data mapping and PINT AE validation rules.

  4. 04

    Establish approval controls

    Configure approval thresholds and dual-approval requirements.

  5. 05

    Connect the ASP

    Connect SphereComply to the organisation's ASP.

Use-Case Scenarios

  • Illustrative Scenario

    Multiple companies using different systems

    A business group operates several companies using different ERP systems. SphereComply provides a common integration and control process while ERP-specific adapters manage system connectivity.

  • Illustrative Scenario

    Central finance approval

    Invoices created by different business units require approval based on transaction value. SphereComply applies configured approval thresholds and dual-approval rules before transmission.

  • Illustrative Scenario

    Manual invoice entry for disconnected business units

    A business unit does not issue invoices through the main ERP. An authorised user creates the outbound invoice directly in SphereComply, which applies the same validation and approval controls as ERP-originated invoices.

  • Illustrative Scenario

    Incoming invoice processing

    The accounts-payable team receives structured electronic invoices. SphereComply validates the documents and manages the controlled flow before information is posted to the ERP.

Product Boundary

  • SphereComply is an integration and control layer connecting ERP systems with the organisation's ASP.
  • SphereComply is not an ERP.
  • SphereComply is not an ASP.
  • SphereComply does not replace the ASP.
