First Invoice Checklist
The five things to confirm before you start sending GST invoices to customers.
Overview
Run through this checklist once before going live. If every box is ticked, your invoices are GST-compliant and ready to send to customers.
The checklist
✓ GST details added
Your GSTIN, business name, and state are saved in Settings → General, and the GSTIN appears on a generated invoice.
✓ HSN codes and GST rates set
Your products have HSN codes and the correct GST rate, so tax is calculated and the tax summary on the invoice is accurate.
✓ Delivery tested
Your sending channel works end to end. For email, a test invoice was delivered (check spam too) and, if you use your own domain, your SMTP sender is verified. For WhatsApp, your number is connected and a test message reached the customer.
✓ Invoice numbering configured
Invoice numbers follow the format you expect (prefix, starting number, and padding), and the sequence will reset correctly at the start of the financial year if you use custom numbering.
✓ A real order tested end to end
You generated an invoice for an actual order, and the tax split (CGST/SGST for intrastate, IGST for interstate), totals, addresses, and PDF all look correct.
Result
All five boxes ticked means GST Pro is configured correctly and you can send invoices to customers with confidence.
