- step 1 of 6
Raise the bill with its e-invoice
Generate the e-invoice for an approved bill with one click, or for many bills at once. The e-way bill can be made with it.
October so far: 13 invoices, each with its IRN and acknowledgement.- The IRN for one bill or many at once, for invoices, returns and notes.
- The signed QR, IRN and acknowledgement print on the invoice.
- E-way bills for invoices, challans, job work and purchase returns.
- Change the vehicle, extend or cancel an e-way bill without leaving Stebly.
- step 2 of 6
Books that keep themselves
Bills, returns, receipts and payments post to the ledgers as they are approved, so the books are never a month behind.
This year so far: ₹1.57 Cr of sales and ₹38.59 L gross profit. Closing stock comes from the stock records, or from your CA's figure.- Sales and purchase bills, returns and payroll post to the books on their own.
- Receipts and payments are set against open bills, oldest first, with TDS on payments.
- Trial balance, trading account, P&L and balance sheet on any date, down to each ledger.
- Depreciation and interest worked out and posted, and a month locked once it is closed.
- step 3 of 6
Know who owes you, and how late
Every open bill, customer by customer, with the days it is late, so you know whom to call first.
₹86.76 L to collect from 112 customers, ₹65.94 L of it overdue, with the days each bill is late.- Every open bill with its due date and the days it is late, for customers and suppliers.
- An ageing matrix from current to over 120 days, oldest dues first.
- Advances set against bills, and a statement for any customer to print or save as PDF.
- Dealers and distributors see their own dues and ledger in their app.
- step 4 of 6
GSTR-1 straight from your books
GSTR-1 is built from the bills already in your books, section by section, so nothing is typed twice.
September: 251 documents, ₹22.08 L taxable and ₹3.97 L tax, with nothing flagged.- B2B, B2C, credit notes, HSN and document summaries, from posted bills.
- Anything that would stop the return is flagged before you file.
- The JSON to upload on the GST portal, or the offline tool's Excel.
- After filing, what was filed is compared with your books.
- step 5 of 6
Match every bill with GSTR-2B
Read GSTR-2B from the portal or load its file, and every purchase bill is matched with it. Differences show up before you claim the credit.
August: 68 bills from 41 suppliers, and the credit in your books agrees with 2B.- GSTR-2B read from the portal, or loaded from its JSON or Excel file.
- Each bill marked as an exact match, or with what differs: bill number, date, amount or tax.
- Bills only in 2B or only in your books, with a missing bill entered from its 2B row.
- Accept, reject or park supplier invoices in IMS, and send your choices to the GST portal.
- step 6 of 6
Know the tax before you file
GSTR-3B is worked out from your books, with your credit beside GSTR-2B. Stebly sets the credit off in the order the law lays down and shows the cash to pay.
August's GSTR-3B: every tax head agrees with 2B, and nothing is flagged before filing.- Outward supplies, reverse charge and credit, worked out from your books.
- Your credit beside GSTR-2B for each tax head, with any difference flagged.
- Credit set off in the order the law lays down, with the cash to pay for each head.
- The set-off journal filled in for you, and GSTR-3B in its form layout in Excel.
