What this solves
Money is lost between the sale and the payment
Invoices with the wrong tax head, payments recorded against the wrong bill and advances nobody remembers. The result is GST notices, disputes with customers and dues that grow unnoticed.
MatruOS makes the GST invoice from the customer and the items, records every payment against the bill it settles and keeps each customer's balance current.
Invoices are right the first time, you always know who owes what, and collections start on the due date.
What changes for an export invoice
One set of records for home and abroad
Export invoices sit in the same series and the same customer records as your domestic sales. The export desk works in the same system as everyone else, so nothing has to be pieced together at year end.
Before you ship
MatruOS makes the export invoice. Your CA or customs broker handles shipping bills and bank realisation from it.

Questions
Questions people ask
What does place of supply 96 mean?
In GST, 96 is the state code used for a supply to a place outside India. MatruOS sets it on export invoices so the supply is treated as inter-state, with IGST.
Can I export without charging IGST?
Exporters with a valid Letter of Undertaking can supply without paying IGST. While no LUT is on file, MatruOS charges IGST and shows you where to add one.
Which currencies can I bill in?
You choose the currency the buyer pays in, such as US dollars, and enter the exchange rate on the invoice.
