E-Invoicing module in Easedesk ERP — complete overview, features, FAQs

E-Invoicing in Easedesk pushes every B2B sales invoice to the GSTN Invoice Registration Portal (IRP), gets back a unique 64-character IRN and signed QR code, and prints them on the invoice — all in 1-2 seconds per invoice, with optional auto-chaining to e-way bill.

It is included in every Easedesk subscription (subject to plan availability) and works out-of-the-box with sensible Indian defaults. Whether you're a 10-person startup or a 500-person enterprise, the E-Invoicing module scales without changing how you log in or where your data lives.

Unlike standalone e-invoicing tools, Easedesk's E-Invoicing module is part of a connected ERP — data flows automatically between modules (your invoice posts to accounting, your payroll updates statutory liabilities) so you never re-key the same number twice.

Mandatory for any business with aggregate turnover > ₹5 crore in any preceding FY since August 2023. Applies to B2B supplies, B2G supplies, exports, and credit/debit notes against B2B. B2C is optional.

For Indian GST and accounting compliance, the regulatory landscape changes every few months — GST rate revisions, new TDS sections, fresh EPFO circulars. Easedesk's product team monitors gazette notifications and pushes updates so your E-Invoicing module always reflects the current law without you having to lift a finger.

Access to the E-Invoicing module is governed by Easedesk's role-based access control (RBAC). By default, the Owner role has full access (wildcard permissions). The predefined roles that include E-Invoicing access are typically Admin, Accountant, and the Viewer role (which gets read-only access).

Owners can edit any predefined role's permissions, or create new custom roles, in Settings → Users & Roles. Permissions are checked at the API level on every request — so even if a user finds a hidden URL, they cannot bypass the role gates.

For sensitive operations like delete, approve and export, you can require an extra-step approval workflow — see the Approvals module documentation.
