PANAMA CITY, Panama - June 11, 2026 - P4 Software, a Grupo Barrdega company with more than 30 years of experience delivering business solutions across the Americas, today announces the official integration of cifraHQ, its cloud ERP platform with accounting and electronic invoicing, with Alanube, a Qualified Authorization Provider (PAC) certified by Panama's Dirección General de Ingresos (DGI).
With this integration, every invoice issued from cifraHQ automatically travels to Panama's Electronic Invoicing System (SFEP), receives its CUFE (Código Único de Factura Electrónica), the PAC's digital signature and the DGI's authorization, all within seconds and without the user ever touching an external system.
Invoice right, without the hassle
For thousands of businesses in Panama, complying with electronic invoicing still means juggling: exporting files, copying data between systems, or relying on the DGI's free invoicer with its operational limitations. The cifraHQ + Alanube integration eliminates that work at the root:
- Real-time issuance: invoices, credit notes and debit notes authorized by the DGI directly from the accounting workflow.
- Complete traceability: every document is recorded with its CUFE and CAFE, with authorization statuses visible instantly.
- Accounting and invoicing in one place: what gets invoiced is posted automatically, with no double data entry and no discrepancies.
- Guaranteed DGI compliance: Alanube validates every document against the current SFEP technical specification before authorization.
- API-first architecture: like every P4 Software product, the integration is native, robust and ready to scale with the business.
- Simple, transparent pricing: electronic invoicing folios at $0.08 per document, with no hidden costs.
"Panama businesses should not waste time fighting technology to comply with the DGI. That is our job. In Alanube we found a PAC with a serious, modern, well-designed API, exactly the standard we demand for our customers. The result is simple: you invoice, cifraHQ and Alanube take care of the rest."
Glenn Tosco, founder and CTO of P4 Software and Grupo Barrdega
Made in Panama, built for Panama
Unlike generic solutions adapted to the region, cifraHQ was built with Panama compliance in its DNA: DGI electronic invoicing, ITBMS, payroll with CSS and MITRADEL, and the tax forms local businesses actually need. The Alanube integration consolidates that vision and positions cifraHQ as the modern alternative for mid-market companies and business groups looking to leave legacy systems behind.
The functionality is available today for all cifraHQ customers in Panama. Interested companies can activate electronic invoicing with full support from the P4 Software team and its network of certified partners, including the DGI electronic invoicer enablement process.
