Before You Run It

  • Set the branch GSTIN and legal/shop name correctly in Settings.
  • Complete all sales, returns, credit notes and corrections for the period.
  • Check registered customers have the correct GSTIN and place of supply.
  • Check every taxable item has the intended HSN, tax rate and unit information.
  • Use one filing month unless your accountant specifically requests a wider review range.

Run the On-Screen Report

  1. Open Reports -> GST Reports -> GSTR-1.
  2. Choose the From and To months and click Apply.
  3. Confirm the displayed GSTIN, legal name and reporting period before reading totals.
  4. Review registered outward supplies invoice by invoice.
  5. Review large interstate unregistered supplies, B2C ratewise totals, nil/exempt/non-GST supplies, returns or amendments, advances and HSN summary.
  6. Compare the same dates with Sales, Returns, Tax and Tax Summary reports.
  7. Resolve source transactions, then rerun GSTR-1; never edit an exported total as a substitute for correcting the source.

Create the JSON Export

The current GSTR-1 export validates that the branch GSTIN exists, uses the selected filing month in MMYYYY form and refuses to download when no B2B invoice rows exist. A successful file is named gstr1-MMYYYY.json.

  1. Finish the on-screen reconciliation first.
  2. Click the JSON action.
  3. Read any warning instead of assuming a file was created.
  4. Confirm the success message states the invoice and GSTIN counts.
  5. Give the JSON and the supporting control reports to the accountant for validation with the current government offline/portal workflow.

Reports GST Readiness Audit GST 2.0 Readiness is a catalog review tool. It identifies possible tax-rate problems but never changes items or proves that a return is ready to file. Reports Sales Reports Sales Reports split normal sale lines, quick sale activity and summary totals so owners can audit bills without opening every receipt. Reports Returns, Pending and Registers Return, pending and register reports explain sale exceptions: money returned, money still due and drawer sessions that must reconcile with the close. Reports GSTR-3B and GSTR-9 These screens aggregate sales and receiving data, but they are working papers. GSTR-9 visibly leaves many statutory sections unsupported and neither screen should be treated as complete filing automation.
