# Generate a Consolidated E-way bill

Steps to describe how to generate a consolidated E-way bill

**A consolidated E-way bill is generated when the transporter is carrying multiple consignments in a single vehicle. Consolidated E-way bill allows the transporter to carry a single document, instead of separate documents for each consignment in a conveyance.**

### Step 1:  Land on View E-way bills page

From the left menu click on '**E-way Bills**' to land on the View E-way bills page. 

You will be able to see the list of invoices with E-way bill details (if available) for the last one week by default.
