Purchase OCR Improvements โ€“ Smarter Feedback & Faster Flow

Platforms: ๐Ÿ“ฑ Android

Two key improvements to Purchase OCR - one to help us understand where it goes wrong, and one to make the save flow noticeably faster.

What's New

1. OCR Feedback After OCR creates a purchase, users will now see a quick ๐Ÿ‘ / ๐Ÿ‘Ž feedback option on the purchase voucher.

  • If they tap ๐Ÿ‘Ž, they can pick a reason or type their concern manually

  • This helps the product team investigate failures and prioritize fixes

  • For Sales/CS: If a customer says "OCR is wrong," ask them to tap ๐Ÿ‘Ž on that voucher so the issue gets captured with full context

2. Faster Save Flow The "We'll notify you" waiting screen is mostly gone.

  • For most users, they'll land directly on the Purchase Voucher within a couple of seconds after saving

  • The ๐Ÿ‘ / ๐Ÿ‘Ž feedback option appears right there on the voucher

  • If processing still takes longer in some cases, users get an option to continue in the background โ€” no one gets blocked.

Discount on MRP โ€“ Show Customer Savings on Every Invoice

Platforms: ๐ŸŒ Web | ๐Ÿ“ฑ ODA | ๐Ÿค– Android | ๐ŸŽ iOS

Businesses can now display the discount given on MRP directly on item details and sales vouchers - making savings visible to customers and speeding up counter billing.

What's New

1. Smart Discount Calculation

  • Auto-calculates: Discount on MRP = MRP โ€“ Sales Price (before tax)

  • Displayed in both % and โ‚น amount

  • Only shown when discount value > 0

  • An info icon beside MRP explains the formula

2. Settings Control

  • "Discount on MRP" is checked by default when MRP is enabled

  • Can be toggled ON/OFF independently

  • Disabling MRP automatically disables Discount on MRP

  • Consistent behavior across Web & Mobile

3. Item & Batch Level Visibility

  • Visible in Item Pricing Details during creation, editing, and batch creation

  • Only appears when MRP setting is ON

4. Sales Voucher Support Available in: Sales Invoice, Automated Bills, Quotation, Sales Return, Delivery Challan, Proforma Invoice

  • Not visible in Purchase Vouchers

  • Editing MRP from an invoice affects only that invoice (not inventory)

5. Print Support

  • Reflected across invoice themes

  • Available in new thermal prints (Web)

  • Not yet in Android & iOS 3-inch thermal bills

Item Level Discount โ€“ Set Once, Apply Every Time

Platforms: ๐ŸŒ Web | ๐Ÿ“ฑ ODA

Set a default discount at the item level and let it auto-apply on every sales transaction โ€” no more remembering or re-entering discounts manually.

What's New

1. Default Discount in Item Master

  • Set discount inside Inventory โ†’ Item โ†’ Pricing Details

  • Auto-applies on: Sales Invoice, Estimate/Quotation, Proforma Invoice, Credit Note, Delivery Challan

  • Still editable directly from the invoice screen when needed

2. Discount Types & Guardrails

  • Amount โ†’ Cannot exceed Item Selling Price (before tax)

Invoice Cancellation โ€“ Cancel Without Losing the Record

Platforms: ๐ŸŒ Web | ๐Ÿ“ฑ ODA | ๐Ÿค– Android | ๐ŸŽ iOS (View Only โ€” cancellation not supported on iOS)

You can now cancel invoices instead of deleting them โ€” keeping invoice numbers intact, improving GST compliance, and maintaining cleaner records.

What's New

1. Cancel Instead of Delete

  • Invoice numbers stay on record (no gaps in sequence)

  • Improves GSTR-1 reporting accuracy

  • Invoice doesn't disappear โ€” it's marked as cancelled

2. Easy Cancellation

  • Cancel from within the Invoice Details page or directly from the Sales Invoice list

  • A cancellation reason is required for tracking and reporting

3. Cancelled Invoice PDF

  • View, download, or share the cancelled invoice PDF even after cancellation

4. Delete After Cancellation

  • A cancelled invoice can still be deleted if needed

  • Once deleted, it cannot be restored

5. Payment Handling

  • If the invoice had recorded payments at time of creation, those entries are removed on cancellation

  • Payments recorded separately via Payment IN are delinked and moved to the party balance

  • Important: All invoices deleted or cancelled before March 31st will be included in GSTR-1 reports. From April 1st onwards, only cancelled invoices will appear in GSTR-1 โ€” deleted invoices will be excluded.

Payment-In Discount - Settle Invoices with Clarity

Platforms: ๐ŸŒ Web | ๐Ÿ“ฑ Android | ๐ŸŽ iOS

Clear off pending invoices or offer early-payment / cash discounts at the time of receiving payment - without editing existing invoices or making manual adjustments.

Whatโ€™s New

1. Discount at Payment Time

You can now apply a Payment-In Discount while recording a payment from a customer.

  • Ideal for last-minute negotiations or early-payment incentives

  • Original invoice remains unchanged (GST-safe and audit-friendly)

  • Discount is recorded separately as Discount Allowed

2. Complete Payment Breakdown

Before saving a payment, youโ€™ll see a clear calculation:

Invoice Amount โ†’ Pending Amount โ†’ Amount Received โ†’ Payment-In Discount โ†’ Balance

This ensures full transparency and eliminates confusion around settlements.

3. Works with Part Payments & Multiple Invoices

  • Apply discounts across multiple partial payments for the same invoice

  • Distribute one discount across multiple pending invoices automatically

  • You can edit the discount distribution anytime before saving

4. Accurate TDS & Accounting

  • If TDS is applicable, it is calculated on the discounted amount

  • Ledger postings are automated:

    • Discount recorded as an expense

    • Net received amount reflected correctly in Cash/Bank

  • Ensures accuracy in:

    • Ledgers

    • P&L

    • Cash/Bank statements

5. Clear Reporting & Audit Safety

  • Payment-In Discounts are tracked separately from invoice-level discounts

  • Fully visible in:

    • P&L (Discount Allowed)

    • Cash/Bank statements

    • Standard reports (no separate report needed)

6. Payment-Out Discounts (Bonus)

You can now also record cash discounts received from suppliers while recording a Payment-Out, with correct income and ledger treatment.

7. Improved Payment History (Android)

  • New shortcut to Payment History from invoice preview

  • Tap any Payment-In to view or edit:

    • Linked invoices

    • Discount applied

    • TDS details

Why This Matters?

  • No more credit notes or negative adjustments

  • GST filings remain untouched

  • Faster settlements, cleaner books, and clearer audits

Who is this for?

  • SMEs/MSMEs offering quick-payment or cash discounts

  • Businesses with TDS obligations

Solar GST Update - Introducing the New 8.9% GST Slab

Platforms: ๐ŸŒ Web | ๐Ÿ“ฑ Android | ๐ŸŽ iOS

The Government of India recently revised GST for the solar industry. MyBillBook now fully supports the new 8.9% effective GST rate across all platforms โ€” allowing solar businesses to invoice with full compliance.

Whatโ€™s New

Weโ€™ve added support for the 8.9% composite GST rate for solar goods + services.
This rate comes from the newly announced 70:30 rule:

  • 5% GST on solar goods

  • 18% GST on related services

  • Applied using a 70% (goods) : 30% (services) split

  • Results in an effective GST rate = 8.9%

Users can now select 8.9% GST directly from their tax settings while creating invoices.

The older 13.8% custom slab will continue to remain available for businesses still using it.

What is the value?

  • Supports the latest solar GST structure announced by the government.

  • No manual calculations or custom rate setup needed.

  • Composite supply breakup remains consistent across invoices.

Who is this for?

  • Solar EPC companies

  • Installers & integrators

  • Distributors & dealers

  • Anyone selling solar goods bundled with services
