GST Invoices and Bill Printing for Restaurants
What you are allowed to issue depends on how your outlet is registered, and the bill should say the right thing on it. Set your status once and every bill afterwards carries the correct heading, your details and a bill number that runs in order.
The three kinds of bill
| Your registration | What the bill is headed |
|---|---|
| Registered under GST, with a GSTIN | Tax Invoice |
| Composition scheme | Bill of Supply |
| Not registered | Receipt |
You set this once in Edit Profile and every bill afterwards is headed correctly.
Bill numbers
Bills are numbered in order, with a prefix you choose and a starting number you set. The number is issued when the bill is raised, so the sequence is the sequence.
What is on the bill
- Your outlet's name, address and GSTIN where you have one
- The date and time
- Every line with its quantity and what it came to
- Any discount given
- How it was paid, including a split across cash, UPI and udhaar
Printing and sharing
Print it from the order or sale screen. You can also send it to the guest, so a lost paper bill is not lost at all.
