Dear Experts,

I have a contract job working for a customer. In this case, I ship materials to the customer multiple times and generate a separate E-Way Bill for each shipment. At the end of the month, I post a single invoice by using Get Shipment Lines and combining all the multiple shipments.

My concern is that the customer wants the invoice only with SAC code, not with HSN code. However, the shipment lines are item-based and contain HSN codes, which are validated during E-Invoice generation.

I want to ship material to the customer with E-Way Bills and later post an invoice only with SAC code using G/L lines, and also generate the E-Invoice.

How can I do this?

Hi,

From your question I understand that you are doing Job work for your customer where your customer send you some material for Job work, which you then Ship to the customer once work is done. Then you want to invoice your customer for those items as it is shipped but as you are providing a service instead of HSN you need to invoice with SAC code for service along with G/L.

There are multiple workarounds for it.

1 - You can change the HSN/SAC code at the time of posting of the Invoice and select a SAC code even for an Item.

2 - You can post a dummy invoice with Shipments lines with 0 value. And Post separate invoice with G/L with actual cost of work.

3 - You can do a customization, where instead of Purchase and Sales, you use Inventory Receipt and Inventory Shipment module to do inward and outward of material. While use sales invoice with G/L Account and SAC code to post a Job work sales invoice. (This is what we use for most of our client.) I know Purchase and Sales is easier but Inventory Receipt and Inventory Shipment is much easier if you just customize some field for E-way bill details and generate e-way bill with that data.

Regards,

Dhiren.

Hello,

This isn’t a technical limitation but a GST-compliant process issue: if you ship goods and later invoice using Get Shipment Lines, Business Central correctly enforces HSN on the e-Invoice, so you can’t switch that invoice to SAC-only. The supported and compliant way is to move goods using Delivery Challans (job work / returnable goods) with E-Way Bills using HSN, and then at month-end raise a separate Sales Invoice with only G/L lines (SAC) for job-work/service charges and generate the e-Invoice from that; trying to ship as items and later bill as services is intentionally blocked by BC and GST rules.
