Additional capabilities

Beyond the books.

SAF Export

Summary Alphalist File (SAF) export available on demand. Formatted to BIR's prescribed CSV layout. Download for any period — monthly, quarterly, or annually. Required when BIR requests your records during examination.

BIR Examiner Access Mode

Generate a time-limited, read-only access link for a BIR examiner. The examiner sees all books and transaction records without accessing other parts of your account. Access expires when the examination period ends.

Append-Only Ledger

BlackZero's ledger is event-sourced and append-only — no transaction can be deleted or silently modified. Corrections are made through reversals with a full audit trail. This is the Annex B Feature 9 tamper-evidence requirement satisfied.

Your books, current at all times.

No month-end catch-up. No manual posting. All 7 books maintained from your transaction records.
