First, you will
upload your purchase register details. Second, GSTZen gets your purchase
invoices from the Government portal. GSTZen’s intelligent matching logic
compares both and provides a reconciliation report. GSTZen automatically
takes care of minor errors in Invoice numbers, dates, and amounts.

Next, you can review this report, take action if needed and upload it back.
At this point, we are ready to file the GSTR2 return to the Government
portal.

In this video, we will go through these steps, one by one.

Step 1 Provide GSTZen with information about Purchase Invoices, Credit
and Debit Notes, and Advances paid to suppliers. You can upload them easily
using XLS files. GSTZen importer is flexible and can work with data from
any accounting software.

Step 2 Login to the Government portal and Download your Purchase invoices
into GSTZen. These are Invoices that your suppliers have uploaded in their
GSTR1 return.

Step 3 GSTZen’s intelligent matching logic gets to work. The output is a
reconciliation report in Excel format.

Step 4 Let us download this report. GSTZen classifies Invoices into four
groups. Invoices present in GSTZen but not uploaded to the Government
portal by our supplier, shown in Yellow. Invoices uploaded to the
Government portal, but missing in GSTZen, shown in Blue. Mismatched
Invoices where amounts in your purchase register and the Government portal
are different, shown in Red. Finally, matched Invoices, shown in Green.

Step 5 Review the report and take action if needed. The report shows all
Invoices and compares your purchase register tax amounts with the amounts
in the Government portal. This is a regular Excel file. You can sort,
filter, and analyze this report. The Action column allows us to decide how
we want to reconcile. The Action cell has a dropdown providing us with
choices. This being Excel, we can copy paste the action for multiple
Invoices.

Step 6 Upload the Reconciliation report back to GSTZen. You can see that
the dashboard indicates that some Invoices are not yet reconciled. After
uploading the report, we can see that all Invoices are reconciled.

Step 7 We now have all the information necessary to file the GSTR2
return to the Government portal.
