eTIMS sale fields (Kenya)

# eTIMS sale fields (Kenya)

Set up. Your company: KRA PIN (in the tax number field), the eTIMS branch ID and an item class code. Each customer with a PIN: put it in their tax number.

Make the file. The file holds the sale as the eTIMS integration expects it: invoice number, sales and receipt type, the amounts per tax type (A exempt, B 16%, C zero, D non-VAT, E 8%), and the item list. Credit notes are written as refunds.

Where it goes. Load it into your eTIMS client or device integration. The device or the eTIMS system signs the sale and returns the control-unit invoice number, the device (SCU) identifier and the QR text.

Keep the receipt. On the invoice, open References and enter those values. A later file for the same invoice carries them.

Pop Books makes the file. You send it. Pop Books does not connect to any tax authority, portal or Peppol access point, and it does not file anything for you. The layout notes were last reviewed in 2026-11; confirm unusual cases with your adviser or provider before you rely on a file in a new country.
