2505773 - GST Invoice Not Generated for Outbound Delivery

Symptom

You have created a stock transfer order between your warehouses in India. When the outbound delivery for the order is released you see that the Goods and Service Tax Invoice is not generated automatically in the system.

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to Outbound Logistics work center.
  2. Navigate to the Outbound Delivery view.
  3. Select the relevant outbound delivery document and choose the Preview button and choose the option Preview.
  4. You can see that the system generated the delivery note and the complete GST invoice is not generated for all the line item of the outbound delivery.

Cause

The Shipment Date of the relevant stock transfer outbound delivery is on a date before 01/07/2017 and the Delivery Date is on a date after 01/07/2017. In this scenario the system will not be able to place the delivery either on a period before GST mandate of after a period with GST mandate.

Resolution

You will have to modify either the Shipment Date or the Delivery Date of the outbound delivery so that both the date falls into either a period before 01/07/2017 or after 01/07/2017. Please follow the below given steps to do so If the outbound delivery is already Released.

  1. Go to Outbound Logistics work center.
  2. Navigate to the Outbound Delivery view.
  3. Select the relevant outbound delivery document and choose the Edit button.
  4. Choose the button Action and select the option Undo Release.
  5. The fields Shipment Date and Delivery Date will be enabled once the Release Status of the document is Not Released.

Change the dates as per your business requirement. If the Shipment Date and the Delivery Date falls on a date range on or after 01/07/2017, the GST invoice will be generated along with the delivery note.
