ZATCA Signing Units
The e-invoice generation solution units (EGS) registered with ZATCA. Under Phase 2 every invoice is stamped by one -- the branch’s own, or the company’s default -- and carries its counter (ICV) and the previous invoice’s hash (PIH). The private key and the ZATCA secrets are sealed and never shown. A TEST unit stamps with a self-signed certificate ZATCA would not accept: for demonstrations only.

The rules that apply here
Everything on this screen obeys the platform rules rather than rules of its own. The ones worth knowing before you use it:
- Narrowing a list — search, conditions, sort, totals, export and saved views.
- What may be changed — the five grounds a record may not be edited on.
- Companies and business units — what the switcher above this list is doing to it.
- Creating a record — required fields, where choices come from, and how the number is allocated.
- Importing a spreadsheet — this screen accepts one, and it runs through the same rules as typing.
