Government has mandated IRN generation for B2B and Export transactions and E-way bills have to be generated along with those IRNs or in reference to those IRNs. There are other document types like B2C invoices, delivery challans, bill of entry and bill of supply, etc which do not have an IRN reference. E-way bills are required to be created for these document types as well. Below is the process explaining E-way bill creation for such document types on ClearTax web portal:
Login to ClearTax E-invoicing and E-way bill product via einv.cleartax.in or https://accounts.cleartax.in/. You will land on the main launchpad page
To import data into the system click on ‘Generate E-invoices and EWB’ tile. Invoices can also be imported from the 'View and Manage EWB' page by clicking on 'Import Invoices' button
To generate E-way bills for E-invoices generated earlier or for invoices / document types which are not eligible for E-invoicing, click on ‘ClearTax EWB Template’
Select the first template i.e. ‘IRN document types template’ - If IRN is already generated and only E-way bill has to be generated
Select the second template i.e. ‘Any document types template’ - If E-way bill has to be generated for non-IRN eligible document types or for IRN eligible document types as well
Both the templates are available for download on the same page.
After selecting the ‘Any documents type’ template to generate E-way bills for non-IRN documents click on ‘Select file from your computer’ and upload the correct file with data against which E-way bills have to be generated.
Choose the file to be imported from your computer and click on 'Open'
After clicking on ‘Open’ the file will be processed and data will be uploaded into ClearTax.
After the data is imported a summary of the number of documents imported is displayed on the screen. Data imported can be validated for errors by clicking on ‘Proceed to validate data’. You can also skip this step by clicking on ‘Proceed without validating’.
If there are errors in the imported data then it can be corrected on the screen after clicking on ‘Proceed to Validate data’. All the errors are highlighted in red and error messages are provided to help with the correction
If there are no errors then the click takes you directly to ‘View and Manage EWB’ screen
Click on the filter button next to EWB status, select ‘Pending’ from the options available and click on ‘Apply’ to select all the pending invoices for E-way bill generation.
All the pending invoices will be filtered and visible on the screen once the filter is applied.
Among the invoices ‘Pending’ for E-way bill generation, select the invoices for which E-way bill have to be generated immediately and click on ‘Generate EWB’.
After clicking on ‘Generate’, click on ‘Generate EWB’.
Please wait while we connect with NIC to generate E-way bills for selected invoices.
Congratulations!! Your E-way bills are successfully generated.
Now the generated E-way bills can be printed (basic and detailed), downloaded or modified based on the options available on the portal.
