How can we help you?

Set your business up on HarakahTec, from the day you sign up to the day you open.

What HarakahTec is

One system for a Saudi business, end to end: the till that sells, the stock room behind it, the books underneath it, and the tax return at the end of it. In Arabic and English, on the same screen.

One system, not fiveSales, stock, purchases, customers, payroll and the ledger are the same data. Nothing is typed twice, and nothing disagrees.
It posts its own booksEvery sale, purchase, wage, card fee and stock movement writes its journal entry as it happens. The trial balance is a report, not a monthly chore.
ZATCA from the first invoicePhase-two e-invoicing is signed, reported and stored by the system itself. There is no second tool to buy and no file to upload.
A dashboard that answers the first questionToday’s takings against yesterday, what is selling, what is running out and what is waiting on you — on one screen, before you go looking for a report.
A till that keeps sellingWhen the network drops, the till carries on and queues what it rang up. It sends the queue the moment the line comes back.
Counted where it happensStock, shifts, cash and reports belong to a branch. A company with three shops gets three honest sets of numbers and one total.
Arabic and English, including on paperNot a translated menu over an English system — receipts, A4 invoices and exports all come out in the language you set.

This guide is meant to be worked through in order. Each section assumes the ones before it are done.

Part 1 — Getting your account

01 Registration, approval and your subscription Create your account, hand in your papers, and understand what you are paying for. 02 Finding your way around Two apps, not one. The sidebar, the business-unit picker, and the things that trip people up on day one.

Part 2 — Foundations

03 Company identity and global settings The name, VAT number, logo, currency, time zone and tax rate that everything else inherits. 04 Business units and branches What a business unit is, when one is not enough, and what each of the three branch types actually changes. 05 Users, roles and permissions Add your staff, decide what each of them can reach, and understand the approval pattern that runs through the whole system. 06 Opening the books The ledger start date, the chart of accounts, cost centres and opening balances. Do this before you trade.

Part 3 — The catalog

07 Units of measure What you buy in and what you sell in, and how the system converts between them without anybody typing a ratio. 08 Categories and subcategories How products are grouped for the back office, for reporting, and for deciding which branches even see them. 09 Products The six product types, pricing with and without VAT, cost and margin, units, stock, and the three switches that decide where a product can be used. 10 Importing a catalog from a spreadsheet Get a few hundred products in at once, see exactly what will be skipped before anything is written, and fix it. 11 Price lists Sell the same product at more than one price — for delivery platforms, wholesale, or a second brand — without duplicating your catalog.

Part 4 — The till

12 Payment methods The five types, why the type — never the name — decides everything, and the settings that govern what happens at the close. 13 Card machines and settlement Register your card terminals and their fee rates, so the close can read the machine's own figure instead of one typed by hand. 14 Registers — the tills themselves Create each till, decide who may stand at it, what it sells, what it takes and how it prints. Every till keeps selling when the internet goes. 15 The cashier's grid The coloured tabs a cashier taps, and how big the tiles under them are. Twenty minutes here saves a second on every sale. 16 The rules the till follows What happens when the shelf says zero, what a cashier may discount, whether they can add a customer, and whether they can write off waste. 17 Devices, receipts and the closing slip Printers, drawer, display and scanner; the receipt designer field by field; the closing report; and dining tables.

Part 5 — Stock and suppliers

18 Suppliers and buying Suppliers, purchase orders, purchase invoices, returns to a supplier, and paying them. This is how stock — and its cost — enters the business. 19 Stock operations The stock report, counting a shelf honestly, moving stock between branches, and writing off what you lost. 20 Manufacturing Recipes, production orders, the daily board, and the settings that decide what happens when an ingredient is short.

Part 6 — Customers and money

21 Customers, loyalty and discounts Customer types and their rules, points that earn and expire, tabs and credit limits, and discount rules that apply on their own. 22 Day-to-day accounting Expenses, fixed assets, what customers owe, journal entries, and the two reports that tell you whether the books are right. 23 Cash management What every open drawer should hold right now, the three reasons money leaves one, and how every cash movement becomes a document. 24 Employees and payroll The people on your payroll, what they are paid, and getting the wage cost into your accounts.

Part 7 — Selling, reporting, going live

25 Quotations Offer a price before the sale happens, track whether it was accepted, and turn it into an invoice when it is. 26 Working the till A cashier's whole day — signing in, opening a shift, selling, taking money, refunds, waste, the drawer, going offline, and closing. 27 Reports, VAT and what ZATCA gets automatically The dashboard and nine reports, the VAT return and its self-check, the zakat base, and the compliance that happens without you. 28 Going live The configuration checklist, the hardware checklist that has to be done by hand, and your first real sale. 29 Keeping the system honest A daily, weekly, monthly, VAT-period and yearly routine — and the system log, for when you need to know who changed what.
