How do I add shipping charges to my invoices under GST?

To add shipping charges to your invoice, you will need to enable the Shipping Charges field.

  • Go to Settings in the top right corner of the page.
  • Select General under Preferences.
  • Scroll down and mark the box next to Shipping Charges.
  • Enter the SAC (Services Accounting Code) in the Default Shipping Charge SAC field. This SAC will be auto-populated in the transaction when tax is applied to Shipping Charges.
  • Click Save.

Now, after enabling the fields, you will be able to view them in the invoices you create or edit.

To add shipping charges to your invoices:

  • Go to Sales on the left sidebar and select Invoices.
  • Click + New in the top right corner to create a new invoice or click Edit to edit an existing invoice.
  • On this page, specify the shipping charges in the Shipping Charges field.
  • To apply tax to the shipping charges, click Apply Tax on Shipping Charge.
  • Select the Tax Rate and click Update.
