"Now, there's no need to visit the business hall to obtain a paper invoice or to mail it. You can issue invoices from your office by subscribing to SMS. It's truly convenient." Recently, with the assistance of the staff at the Shahe Road business hall in Taihe county, Fuyang city, Anhui province, Shan, a customer of the Luofu Railway in Fuyang city, successfully issued a value-added tax (VAT) special digital invoice.

"Digital electronic invoice" is an abbreviation for a fully digitized electronic invoice that does not exist in paper form or requires any media support. It implements a national unified coding system and facilitates automatic circulation and delivery. After upgrading to the "digital electronic invoice", the business hall of State Grid Fuyang Power Supply Company can issue the "digital electronic invoice" to users through the marketing 2.0 system. This not only provides users with a better service experience for users but also enhances work efficiency. The "digital electronic invoice" enables direct integration between the industry, finance and taxation systems. The system allows online direct connections through the online state grid, marketing 2.0 system and tax system, enabling online data transmission without manual intervention. This prevents false invoicing and addresses risks associated with invoice loss. The implementation of "digital electronic invoices" promotes paperless accounting vouchers, allowing for direct paperless reimbursement and entry in XML files, injecting new momentum into the digital and intelligent transformation of financial management. Compared to traditional paper invoices, the special digital invoice offers convenience, safety and cost savings. Users simply need to provide an email or mobile phone number, subscribe to the automatic invoicing function, and a QR code will be generated and automatically pushed after the electricity bill is paid. Customers can download and issue invoices directly with a single scan, eliminating space and time constraints for invoicing, reducing mailing and storage costs associated with traditional invoices, and further aiding enterprises in lowering financial operation costs.

The company will continue to enhance the promotion and application of digital invoices, strengthen normative supervision, promote the integrated management of "industry, finance, and taxation", facilitate the achievement of high-quality development, improve customer satisfaction, and continuously optimize the business environment, leveraging the "clean and honest WanDian" digital intelligence supervision platform.
