● It is recommended that you restart voucher numbering for GST transactions to ensure that unique voucher numbers are used for all your vouchers. If Automatic (Manual Override) is set as the method of voucher numbering, it ensures that unique voucher numbers are set for your vouchers.
● Update party GSTIN/UIN for parties buying from you or selling items to you.
● Create GST tax ledgers to calculate taxes in transactions.
● Create income and expense ledgers to distribute the expenses and incomes against items appropriately.
