- Where credit notes, cancellations and e-way bills trip teams up
- The common data gaps behind IRN rejections — and how to close them

What the checklist covers
Four areas that decide whether an e-invoice goes through.
Most IRN rejections aren’t system failures — they’re data problems that started when the order was taken. The checklist walks through each area in order.
Clean the records every invoice pulls from
Buyer GSTINs and state codes, HSN codes on every SKU, and the tax rate each product carries.
Map dealer orders to e-invoice fields
Which order details must carry through — buyer, ship-to, item, quantity, value and tax — so nothing is re-typed later.
Credit notes, cancellations, e-way bills
Credit and debit notes are reported too; an IRN can only be cancelled within a short window; transport details decide the e-way bill.
Close the gaps behind rejections
Invalid or inactive GSTINs, duplicate document numbers, HSN or rate mismatches, and totals that don’t add up.
General guidance, not tax advice — confirm current rules with your CA or GSP.
Who it’s for
Manufacturers that take dealer orders and invoice under GST.
If your team still keys orders in from phone and WhatsApp, or your dealer-order data doesn’t line up with what the invoice needs, this checklist is for you.

How Concord fits
The checklist cleans your data. Concord keeps orders clean at source.
Concord is where dealers place their own orders — so the data that later becomes an invoice is captured right the first time. It runs standalone, or above your ERP via API-based integration. Not a DMS or SFA.
Self-service dealer ordering
Dealers place their own orders, so the data is captured clean at source — not re-keyed from phone and WhatsApp messages.
Credit-limit enforcement
Dealer credit limits are enforced at the moment of order — control up front, not chasing after the fact. Never lending or financing.
Automatic per-product, per-state tax
Each product’s tax category and the ship-to state’s rate, applied automatically on every order and shown on the invoice as one combined amount.
Per-product, per-state tax
One combined tax amount on every dealer order.
Full GST breakup + Tally sync
CGST/SGST and interstate IGST, plus Tally sync — configured to your setup.
The e-invoice itself
IRN, signed QR, IRP reporting and GSTR-1 — never Concord’s function.

What’s inside?
A step-by-step readiness checklist: the master data to clean first (GSTINs, HSN codes, per-SKU tax rates), how to map dealer-order fields to what the e-invoice needs, the edge cases that trip teams up (credit notes, cancellations, e-way bills), and the data gaps behind common IRN rejections.
Does GST e-invoicing apply to my business?
It depends on your aggregate annual turnover against the current threshold notified by the GST authorities. Use the free GST e-invoicing checker on this site to check in a minute, then come back here for the readiness steps.
Does Concord generate e-invoices for me?
No. Concord applies tax automatically per product and per state on every dealer order and shows it on the invoice as one combined amount; a full CGST/SGST and IGST breakup is configured to your setup as a scoped build. The IRN, signed QR, IRP reporting and GSTR-1 stay with your ERP or GSP.
Does Concord work with Tally?
Concord runs standalone, or above your ERP via API-based integration. Tally connects the same way as any other ERP — Tally sync is a scoped build, configured to your setup.
Is Concord a DMS or SFA tool?
No. Concord is self-service dealer ordering, credit-limit enforcement and automatic per-product, per-state tax — run standalone, or above your ERP via API-based integration. It’s not a DMS or SFA, and it doesn’t replace your system of record.
Self-service dealer ordering + credit-limit enforcement + automatic per-product, per-state tax — run standalone, or above your ERP via API-based integration. Not a DMS. Not a SFA.
