File your GSTR-1
When it's time to file, GST Manager gives you the CSV data you need for your return. This walkthrough takes you from picking a date range to a downloaded GSTR-1 file, explains the B2B and B2C rows, and shows the companion exports you can pull alongside it.
What GSTR-1 is
GSTR-1 is your outward-supplies return. GST Manager's report puts your B2B (customers with a GSTIN) and B2C (customers without one) invoices into a single CSV so you can prepare it.
Step 1 — Watch the due countdown
On the dashboard, the GSTR-1 due countdown shows when your next return is due, so you know when to start. Open GST Manager → Reports when the date approaches.
GST Manager → Reports
Step 2 — Pick your date range
In GST Manager → Reports, each report has a From / To date-range picker. Set the range to your filing period (for example, the calendar month you're filing for). The Reports page is where you "Download CSV exports for compliance filings."
Step 3 — Download the GSTR-1 (B2B & B2C) CSV
Next to GSTR-1 (B2B & B2C), click Download CSV. This report puts "B2B (with GSTIN) and B2C (no GSTIN) on a single CSV with a Section column." Open it and read the Section column to tell the two apart:
- B2B rows — invoices to customers who have a GSTIN, captured as validated on the contact page. These carry the customer GSTIN and belong in your B2B tables.
- B2C rows — invoices to customers with no GSTIN. These are your consumer sales and belong in the B2C section of your return.
Step 4 — Pull the companion exports
For the rest of your filing, use the other two reports over the same date range:
- Export invoices — "Only invoices flagged as export (billing country ≠ India)." Download this for your export supplies.
- Legacy — all paid invoices — "Every paid invoice across the date range — domestic + export," useful as a reconciliation cross-check.
