System Requirements
wise-receipt
1. Introduction
The "wise-receipt" project aims to develop a Virtual Fiscal Device Management System (VFDMS) for integration with the Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA). This system will facilitate real-time fiscal compliance for vendors, supermarkets, shops, restaurants, and POS providers across Tanzania.
2. System Overview
The wise-receipt system is designed to be a multi-tenant SaaS platform that supports real-time receipt processing, fiscal device management, and TRA integration. It will provide a robust API-first infrastructure with high scalability, offline synchronization, and role-based access control. The system will cater to the unique needs of the Tanzanian market, ensuring compliance with fiscal regulations and optimizing operations for environments with unstable internet connectivity.
3. Functional Requirements
- As a Vendor, I should be able to register and manage my fiscal devices.
- As a Cashier, I should be able to generate fiscal receipts in real-time.
- As an Admin, I should be able to monitor device status and receipt generation.
- As an Auditor, I should be able to access immutable audit logs for compliance reporting.
- As a System, I should be able to send transactions to TRA in real-time.
- As a System, I should be able to store fiscal records securely.
- As a System, I should be able to support multiple branches and vendors.
4. User Personas
- Admin: Oversees the entire system, manages users, and ensures compliance.
- Vendor: Manages fiscal devices and branches, and interacts with the TRA.
- Cashier: Operates POS systems and generates fiscal receipts.
- Auditor: Reviews audit logs and ensures fiscal compliance.
5. Visuals Colors and Theme
- primary: #1A73E8 (a deep blue for brand identity)
- primary_light: #4D90FE (a lighter blue for hover states)
- secondary: #F4B400 (a vibrant amber for emphasis)
- accent: #0F9D58 (a contrasting green for CTAs)
- highlight: #FF7043 (a warm coral for notifications)
- bg: #F1F3F4 (a light gray for the background)
- surface: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.9) (a soft white for cards)

- border: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1) (a subtle border color)
6. Signature Design Concept
Interactive Fiscal Dashboard
The homepage will feature an interactive fiscal dashboard that visualizes real-time data through dynamic charts and graphs. Users can hover over elements to reveal detailed insights, click to drill down into specific metrics, and drag to rearrange dashboard widgets. The dashboard will utilize framer-motion for smooth animations and react-chartjs-2 for data visualization. This engaging interface will provide users with an intuitive understanding of their fiscal operations, making it a standout feature of the wise-receipt platform.
7. Interaction Model & Motion Direction
- Landing Page: Parallax interaction model with layered depth via scroll. Decorative layers will translate at different speeds, while real content scrolls naturally.
- Internal Pages: Static interaction model for clarity and minimal motion, focusing on data-heavy content and operational efficiency.
8. Non-Functional Requirements
- High availability and scalability to support multiple vendors and branches.
- Robust security measures to protect sensitive fiscal data.
- Compliance with Tanzanian fiscal regulations.
- Optimized for environments with unstable internet connectivity.
- Comprehensive logging and monitoring for system health and performance.
9. Tech Stack
