You might be attempting to create an IRN that is already generated.

When trying to generate an e-invoice, you will receive a duplicate IRN if the IRN number has already been generated, cancelled, and repassed with another entry in the same cancelled voucher or with a previous voucher number with a new invoice.

Say for Voucher No 1, you have generated an e-invoice, which you have cancelled later. If you are now generating an e-invoice for another voucher with the same voucher number, you will be prompted with a duplicate IRN error.

In this case, record the new voucher with a separate voucher number. Also, remove the IRN from the e-invoice details and then generate the e-invoice through the new voucher.

• In case the IRN/QR code does not exist for the said invoice, then instead of re-generating, you can use “Get IRN”. If not done within 72 hours, then this solution works. 
• In case voucher is deleted by any chance, and due to numbering it is showing, then we need to recommend not to delete voucher and insert same voucher and use get IRN and in case it greater than 72 hours then raise credit note.
