# Tax reports

When it's time to file, you don't want to copy invoice numbers by hand. GST Manager gives you
three ready-made CSV exports under **GST Manager → Reports** — *"Download CSV exports for
compliance filings."* Each one covers a date range you pick and hands you a spreadsheet you can
open, check and feed into your filing tool.

*GST Manager → Reports*

::: info B2B vs B2C
A **B2B** invoice is one where the customer supplied a **GSTIN** (their 15-character GST
registration number); a **B2C** invoice has none. GST Manager decides this for you when it
classifies each invoice, so your reports already have the split right.

## The three reports

Every report shares the same controls: a **From** and **To** date-range picker and a **Download
CSV** button. Set the range to the period you're filing for, then download.

| Report | What's in it | Use it when |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **GSTR-1 (B2B & B2C)** | *"B2B (with GSTIN) and B2C (no GSTIN) on a single CSV with a Section column."* | You're preparing your monthly or quarterly GSTR-1 return. |
| **Export invoices** | *"Only invoices flagged as export (billing country ≠ India)."* | You need your export sales for FEMA/GST export reporting. |
| **Legacy — all paid invoices** | *"Every paid invoice across the date range — domestic + export."* | You want a full ledger for reconciliation or your accountant. |

## How to choose

* Reach for **GSTR-1 (B2B & B2C)** first for a normal return. The **Section** column tells you
  which part of GSTR-1 each row belongs to, so B2B and B2C rows stay sorted without extra work.
* Use **Export invoices** when you only care about sales to customers outside India — it filters
  to invoices whose billing country isn't India, which is exactly what your export reporting needs.
* Keep **Legacy — all paid invoices** for reconciliation. Because it lists *every* paid invoice —
  domestic and export together — it's the right export to tie your books back to your total sales.

## Set the date range and download

1. Open **GST Manager → Reports**.
2. Pick the **From** and **To** dates for the period you're filing.
3. Click **Download CSV** on the report you need.
4. Open the file, give it a quick sanity check, and hand it to your filing workflow.
