Invoice & Receipt
Issue receipts that meet Japanese qualified invoice requirements from Shopify order data.
This app helps with
Issue receipts right in the chat. When a customer asks for a receipt, ALF asks for the order number and email address, checks the order and the customer, and then issues it. Your operators don't build documents by hand.
A receipt that meets Japan's invoice system, delivered as a PDF. The PDF carries the issuer name, registration number, amount and tax for each tax rate, and the transaction date, and is emailed to the address on the order. The customer chooses the addressee. A copy stays in the chat.
Getting started ① In the app's Settings, enter the issuer name and registration number, then save ② In ALF › Tasks, open the delivered task 「領収書の発行（Shopify）」 and choose ⋮ › Publish ③ Send 「領収書がほしい」 in a chat to try it The app's "How to use" tab shows these steps on video.
Re-issues and orders that can't be issued are handled too. Every receipt is kept in the "Receipt history" tab and can be exported as CSV. A re-issue with a new addressee gets the original number with a suffix. Unpaid or refunded orders are declined with the reason.
Recommended for
Built for Shopify merchants who receive receipt requests as routine work. If your team currently builds each PDF by hand, this removes both the turnaround time and the transcription mistakes in the addressee name.
It assumes you hold a Japanese qualified invoice issuer registration number and need to issue documents that satisfy the invoice system.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can anyone issue a receipt if they know the number?
No. A receipt is only issued when the email address (or phone number) matches the one on the order, and it is only sent to that email address. Knowing the number alone does not allow retrieving the document, sending it by email, or voiding it.
Do I have to build the task myself?
No. Installing the app delivers the task 「領収書の発行（Shopify）」 to ALF › Tasks, paused. Choose ⋮ › Publish to start using it.
Can I change the task's wording?
Yes. Choose ⋮ › Duplicate on the delivered task to get an editable copy, then edit and publish the copy (keep the original paused).
Can the addressee name be changed?
Yes. The customer enters the name, and the document is issued under it. Company names are supported.
Can a receipt be re-issued later?
Yes. A re-issue produces a new document with a suffix added to the original number, and the ledger keeps the history so it is clear which document is current.
How is the finished receipt delivered?
As a PDF attached to an email.
Where are the registration number and issuer details configured?
In the app settings, where you register the qualified invoice issuer registration number, issuer name, and address. Those details are printed on every document.
Does it work with carts other than Shopify?
Shopify only at this time.
