Why invoices and cheques carry words

Writing the amount in words alongside the figures makes alteration harder and settles disputes when digits are unclear. UAE tax invoices, purchase orders, contracts and cheques commonly include it, usually as 'UAE Dirham Twelve Thousand Four Hundred and Fifty and Seventy-Five Fils Only'. If the words and figures disagree, banks generally follow the words.

International vs lakh/crore grouping

Most of the world groups thousands, millions and billions. India uses thousands, lakhs (100,000) and crores (10,000,000). Choosing INR switches to lakh/crore automatically, and you can enable the same grouping for other currencies. Values are rounded to the currency's two decimal places and handled as text, so large amounts don't lose precision.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does it support Arabic?

This version produces English wording. Many UAE invoices are bilingual — for the Arabic line, check the result with a native speaker or your system's Arabic invoice output.

What about currencies with three decimals, like KWD or OMR?

They aren't included, because their subunit is a thousandth. Use 'No currency' to read out the number, then add the wording manually.

How large a number can it handle?

Up to 18 digits before the decimal point — far beyond any realistic invoice.
