Hashavshevet Data Tools

Instructions

Important: use the official OPENFORMAT/BKMV export, not direct binary parsing.

Hashavshevet does NOT publish public per-byte offsets for its internal .dat / .hsh / .mdb files. The publicly documented and ITA-mandated export from any Israeli bookkeeping software is OPENFORMAT (קובץ אחיד / BKMV). The export produces a ZIP of three files: INI.TXT (production summary, holds the leading A000 record plus per-record-type control-count summary records), BKMVDATA.TXT (the business data, with one A100 opening record, then C100, D110, D120, B100, B110, M100 records, then one Z900 closing record), and README.TXT (general production details for the user). Only INI.TXT and BKMVDATA.TXT are sent to the ITA or the CPA. Spec: https://www.misim.gov.il/TmbakmmsmlNew/Files/horaot_131.pdf. Hashavshevet's BKMV export guide: https://downloads.h-erp.co.il/files/general/bkmv7-erp.pdf. Validate output against the ITA simulator: https://www.misim.gov.il/TmbakmmsmlNew/frmCheckFiles.aspx.

The fixed-width column maps below (HESHIN_COLUMNS / PKUDOT_COLUMNS) are best-guess heuristics for legacy Windows installations, not authoritative specifications. Use them only as a fallback when no OPENFORMAT export is available; never claim them as the canonical Hashavshevet format. For any ITA filing, CPA handoff, or PCN874 / Form 6111 generation, export via OPENFORMAT instead.

Hashavshevet בענן (H-WEB / Wizcloud) public REST API. The cloud version of Hashavshevet exposes a public REST API for documents, accounts, and transactions: https://home.wizcloud.co.il/help/apidocument/. Use this for ongoing two-way sync with Green Invoice / Rivhit / iCount instead of one-shot file dumps where possible.

SHAAM allocation-number context (2026). Sales-invoice journal entries created/imported through Hashavshevet for B2B amounts at or above the current threshold must carry an allocation number (mispar haktza'a). Threshold (VAT excluded): NIS 10,000 since January 2026. NIS 5,000 since 1 June 2026. An above-threshold tax invoice WITHOUT a valid allocation number cannot be used by the counterparty to deduct input VAT, so treat a missing allocation number as a hard validation error, not a soft "incomplete" warning. Hashavshevet בענן has built-in real-time SHAAM integration; the Windows version may need a separate workflow.
