Managing and reconciling financial transactions related to Letters of Credit (LC) is a crucial task for businesses engaged in international trade, especially under the rigorous tax regulations in Saudi Arabia. ALZERP Cloud ERP Software offers a specialized tool to address this need—the LC Vendors Ledger Report. This feature is designed to help businesses maintain accurate and compliant records of their LC transactions, specifically focusing on VAT and tax management.
ALZERP’s LC Vendor Ledger Report provides a detailed overview of your transactions with specific LC suppliers, ensuring accurate VAT and tax management. This report is essential for reconciling LC purchases and payments, identifying discrepancies, and maintaining compliance with ZATCA regulations.

The Importance of the LC Vendors Ledger Report #
The LC Vendors Ledger Report under VAT and Tax management in ALZERP is distinct from the traditional financial ledger. While the core financial ledger in ALZERP’s Financial Statements module captures all financial transactions impacting the overall financial health of the business, the LC Vendors Ledger focuses solely on transactions related to LC purchases and payments. This distinction is critical because it allows businesses to separately manage and report LC transactions for tax purposes without affecting their main financial accounts.
The primary purpose of the LC Vendors Ledger Report is to ensure that there is a balance between the LC purchases and the corresponding payments. This report allows businesses to verify that the payments made against each LC purchase match the expected amounts, ensuring accuracy and compliance with tax regulations.
