- Date of issuing
- Date and time of the last alteration of the document
- Receipt number
- Total of the receipt (rounded to 2 decimals)
- The signature generated in the previous document, of the same series
- and on the private key of the computer invoicing program producer

Also, the version of the private key (sequential integers) that was used to generate the signature of the respective document needs to be recorded.
