Seamlessly Update GST Status of Vouchers
Previously, whenever you made GST-related changes in the master, TallyPrime would prompt you each time to update the GST status of the vouchers. Now, you can manage this process more efficiently by configuring it in F11 (Company Features). This allows you to alter GST-related details in the master without interruptions, with TallyPrime updating the GST status of vouchers according to your preferences.
Easy Access to GST Registration Details (History)
GST Registration Details (History) were previously accessible only under the "Show More" option for a master. This feature is now conveniently displayed alongside other primary options across all reports that support GST history, providing quicker access to this crucial information.
Improved Handling of Deleted Vouchers
Previously, when you exchanged or deleted a voucher, it was categorized under "Marked for Deletion on Portal," leading to confusion. This issue has now been resolved. If a voucher valid in the current return period was uploaded with a delete request in an earlier period, you can reset the delete request directly within the GST report.
Enhanced Management of Non-GST Transactions
Earlier, non-GST transactions appeared as "Uncertain Transactions (Corrections needed)" in GST reports, requiring manual resolution. Now, these transactions are automatically marked as "Not Relevant for This Return" within the GST reports, simplifying their management.
Bulk Resolution of Uncertain Transactions
Uncertain Transactions resulting from issues like incorrect tax rates, incorrect HSN/SAC, or mismatches in GST registration and tax rate details previously had to be resolved individually in the GST reports. With the new update, you can now select and resolve multiple uncertain transactions simultaneously through a single action in the GST reports.
Improved Transaction Classification in GST Reports
Purchase transactions or debit notes recorded without a Supplier Invoice No. or Date used to appear as "Uncertain Transactions (Corrections needed)" in GST reports. These transactions will now be categorized as "Included in Return" in the GSTR-3B report and "Available in Books" in the GSTR-2A and GSTR-2B reconciliation reports. You can directly update the Supplier Invoice No. and Date by drilling down from these categories and reconcile them as necessary.
View Already Exported Transactions in GSTR-1
When exporting GSTR-1, previously exported data would only appear if the option "Include Transactions where no action is required" under "Basis of Value" was enabled. Now, you can directly include or exclude previously exported transactions in the GSTR-1 report using the right button.
Export GSTR-2A and GSTR-2B Reconciliation Reports in the Old Format
Exporting GSTR-2 to Excel in the old GSTR-2A format is now easily available. Simply enable the option "As per old format (GSTR-2)" in the GSTR-2A or GSTR-2B reconciliation reports during export, and the details will be exported in the desired format.
Validation of HSN for B2C Transactions
Previously, B2C transactions with incorrect HSN/SAC codes appeared as "Uncertain Transactions" in GST reports. Now, you can validate and correct the HSN/SAC codes for B2C transactions with an effective date, and the details will be reflected in the HSN/SAC summary report.
HSN/SAC Limit Based on Annual Turnover
You can now set the length of HSN/SAC codes (4, 6, or 8 digits) based on your Annual Aggregate Turnover (AATO), allowing for better compliance with GST regulations.
