Troubleshooting

Invalid GSTIN error during party creation.

Verify that the GSTIN is entered correctly without spaces. The system performs a checksum validation. Ensure you have an active internet connection if you are using the 'Fetch from Portal' feature.

Invoice is not printing correctly on thermal printer.

Go to Settings > Print Configuration and ensure the paper size is set to '80mm' or '58mm' as per your device. You may need to adjust the margin settings for optimal alignment.

Stock levels are not updating after a sale.

Ensure that the 'Inventory Tracking' flag is enabled for that specific item in the product master. If using the Windows app, check if a sync is pending.
