GST e-invoicing with IRN, email, and WhatsApp delivery

GST E-Invoicing

Portal IRN, then mail or WhatsApp

Generate a GST e-invoice from a confirmed B2B invoice, print IRN and QR on the PDF, and send that same document by email or WhatsApp.

From invoice to customer

One document, three destinations

MercExe does not treat GST e-invoicing as a separate product. The invoice you confirm is the invoice you register, print, email, and send on WhatsApp.

GST e-invoicing

On a confirmed sales invoice for a business customer with GSTIN, generate the e-invoice against the GST portal using your GSP credentials. Cancel it on the portal when the invoice must change. IRN status stays on the document so you do not edit or double-submit by accident.

  • Generate and cancel from View Invoice — no re-keying tax lines
  • GSP GSTIN, user, and password in Tax Configuration, with verify-and-save
  • IRN printed on the PDF; Signed QR in the footer after generation
  • Edit blocked until the e-invoice is cancelled

On the PDF

IRN and QR on the customer copy

After the portal returns an IRN, print and preview use the same invoice PDF. The IRN appears in the document summary; the signed QR is rendered on the invoice so the customer copy matches what GST expects.

  • IRN text on branded PDF themes and thermal layouts that support it
  • QR generated from the signed QR payload, not a placeholder image
  • Same CGST, SGST, IGST, and cess lines as the invoice
  • GST on the books →

Why MercExe e-invoicing

Portal and PDF stay in step

IRN and QR come from the generated e-invoice, not a paste into a template. Cancel on the portal before you edit.

Mail from your own sender

SMTP or OAuth 2 in Mail Configuration. The customer sees your from-address with the invoice PDF attached.

WhatsApp without a side app

Templates and phone live in Settings. Operators send from print preview on the same invoice they just confirmed.

GST already on the line

CGST, SGST, IGST, and cess are calculated on the invoice. E-invoicing submits those lines; it does not ask you to type them again.
