For healthy competition and tax fairness in the restaurant sector, we implemented measures making it mandatory to produce a bill using an IT solution.

All restaurant establishment operators subject to mandatory billing measures must send us their transaction data using the required equipment and give every customer a bill produced using the equipment.

IT solution

The IT solution used in the restaurant sector comprises:

• a certified sales recording system (SRS) that collects transaction data and securely sends it to a cloud environment;
• a cloud environment, called the WEB-SRM, that validates and stores the data before securely sending it to us;
• a computer system that integrates WEB-SRM data into our informational environment.

Most restaurant establishment operators also have a receipt printer, which must be compatible with their SRS.

Certified SRS

To use the cloud solution, you must adapt your SRS to work with the WEB-SRM and have it certified by us.

To help you estimate the work required to make your product compatible with the WEB-SRM, see document SW-76-V, General Information for Adapting an SRS.

For the certification process, see Certification of Sales Recording Systems That Communicate With the WEB-SRM.

Server administrator

Under the mandatory billing measures in the restaurant sector, each administrator of a remote server (a centralized computer system) that communicates directly with the WEB-SRM must request an authorization code from us.

The code authorizes the remote server to communicate with the WEB-SRM and receive a digital certificate used to identify the owner of the private key or public key.
