Generate IRN and Print QR Code

In TallyPrime, you can proceed to generate IRN and print QR code after passing a transaction.

Before you begin | Prerequisite

• Ensure that you have enabled e-Invoicing in TallyPrime.
• Ensure that you have registered your business on IRP
• Ensure that you have created an API user profile by selecting Tally (India) Pvt Ltd as the GSP.

If you’re already using an e-Way Bill profile in TallyPrime, you don’t need a separate API User Profile for e-Invoicing.

Let’s consider a GST Sales transaction to generate IRN.

1. Specify the required voucher details, such as the Party A/c name, Sales ledger, Name of Item, GST ledger, and so on.
   Avoid starting invoice numbers with zero (0), a slash (/), or a hyphen (-), as these are rejected by the IRP.
2. Set Provide e-Invoice details to Yes.
   1. In the e-Invoice Details screen, specify the Bill to and Ship to places, if this is your first e-Invoice for the party. These details will be carried forward in subsequent transactions with the party.
      
   2. Press Ctrl+A to save the details and to return to the voucher.
      
3. As always, press Ctrl+A to save the voucher.
   A message will appear, prompting you to generate the e-Invoice.
   
4. Press Enter to continue.
5. Specify the e-Invoice Login details, and press Enter.
   
   The details of the invoice gets exchanged with the e-Invoice system.
   On successful upload to IRP, the IRN details will get updated in the voucher, and a message about the successful generation of e-invoices will appear.
   
6. Print the invoice with the IRN and QR code.
   

TallyPrime simplifies the entire e-invoicing journey, from setup to generation, cancellation, and printing, while seamlessly integrating with your regular invoicing.

Q&A

1. Can I generate an e-Invoice without generating an e-Way Bill?
