Unit Quantity Code (UQC) is a uniform measuring unit used by the department for measuring quantity in the returns filed. UQCs are used to maintain consistency and prevent variations in quantities in the returns filed by different businesses. This requires the businesses to measure the quantities of items using the UQC from the list given by the department.
Using Tally.ERP 9, you can map your unit of measurement to the UQC given by the department, and file the returns. This can be done in the UoM master as well as in the Map UoM-UQC report, which allows you to map all the UoMs at once. In case an item has more than one UoM, and thus linked to multiple UQCs, you will have to select the reporting UQC for such items to report in GST returns.
To map UoM to UQC
1. Go to Gateway of Tally > Display > Statutory Reports > GST > Map UoM - UQC .
2. Select the UoM that has to be mapped to its UQC, and click S : Map to UQC .
3. Select the right UQC from the predefined list.
4. Press Enter to map. Similarly, you can map each UoM to the right UQC.
The list of Unit Quantity Code provided by the department does not have the representative code for brass, carats, litres, running foot, and so on. Based on your business requirement, map the unit to the related UQC. For example, you can map litres to KLR-KILOLITRE. Before filing, change the quantity in the hsn worksheet of the template, or CSV file. Examples of mapping units to the related UQCs with the conversion factors are given below:
