Filing GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B from ERPNext to the GST Portal
Option 1: Manual Filing (Recommended for Small Businesses)

For GSTR-1:

  1. Go to Accounts > GST > GSTR-1.

  2. Select the fiscal year/month.

  3. Review data (invoices auto-fetch if GST setup is correct).

  4. Click “Download JSON” and upload it on the GST Portal under Returns Dashboard > GSTR-1.

For GSTR-3B:

  1. Go to: Accounts > GST > GSTR-3B.

  2. Select the period and review tax amounts.

  3. Manually enter values into the GST portal (ERPNext doesn’t provide a GSTR-3B JSON file).

Option 2: API-Based Integration (For Larger Businesses)

  1. Register with a GSP (e.g., ClearTax, MastersIndia, GSTHero).

  2. Export data from ERPNext (JSON/Excel).

  3. Use custom scripts/middleware to send data to the GSP.

  4. GSP pushes data to GSTN via API, and you receive filing confirmation.

Tips:

  • Ensure correct HSN/SAC codes, GSTINs, and invoice formats in ERPNext.

  • Use ERPNext’s GST settings for proper configuration.
