For accountants and bookkeepers
Clean bills, matched to source, with the tax lines already split.
ChowChirp gives you payables with the document attached, SST lines on every bill and sale, e-Invoice records with their validation details, and exports in AutoCount and Xero friendly layouts. It records; you file.
Where you are
Your restaurant clients send a shoebox, a spreadsheet and a POS export. You rebuild the month from three sources and hope the SST period is right.
With ChowChirp the bills arrive approved, matched and tax-split, with the original invoice attached. The month-end checklist is worked before you see it. The export imports cleanly.
What changes
Bills with the source attached
Every payable keeps its invoice image, its match status and the name of the person who approved it.
Tax as lines, never a lump
SST 6% and 8%, exempt and out of scope, on each line. Service charge separate. Bank Negara rounding recorded per cash tender.
A period you can lock
The close checklist covers payables, petty cash, SST, e-Invoice records, cash sessions and delivery reconciliation. Lock when it clears. Reopen with approval.
Exports that declare themselves
CSV, XLSX and PDF, with the renderer version, the confidence basis and the fields redacted.
e-Invoice records that say what they are
Issued, consolidated and self-billed records with validation identifiers. Nothing shown as validated unless LHDN returned a validation.
Petty cash under policy
Receipt required above RM30, RM1,000 per entry, and a list of approved claims with no receipt.

The screens you will live in
Finance and payables
Every approved bill lands on one aging board, matched to its purchase order and delivery. Petty cash, cash position, SST and e-Invoice records and the month-end close live in the same place, with the evidence attached.
Invoices and documents
Supplier invoices, credit notes and delivery notes go from a photo to an approved bill in one screen. The AI fills the fields, a person checks the exceptions, and one approval posts to payables and stock.
Owner dashboard
The owner dashboard pulls the work from every outlet into one prioritised list. Alerts, corrective actions, crisis reports, exports and the audit explorer sit behind it. Every figure opens to the entry that produced it.
Frequently asked questions
Does it replace my accounting software?
No. It is operational finance for the restaurant. You keep the general ledger and the filing. ChowChirp exports to you.
Which formats do you export?
CSV, XLSX and PDF, including AutoCount and Xero friendly CSV layouts for payables and petty cash. Direct API connections are on the roadmap.
How are e-Invoices handled?
ChowChirp keeps issued, consolidated and self-billed records with their MyInvois identifiers where available. Consolidated submissions can be sent where a MyInvois connection is configured. The screen always distinguishes recorded from sent from validated.
Can I get my own login?
Yes. Owners can invite an accountant with access to finance screens and exports only.
