Create an Invoice
This is the heart of Clorvia. Once your firm, customers, and items are set up, raising an invoice takes under a minute.
Before you start
Make sure you’ve set up:
- Your firm (your GST identity) — Firms & GST Identity
- The customer you’re billing — Customers & Suppliers
- The items you’re selling — Items & Inventory
Step by step
Start a new invoice
Open Invoices in the sidebar and click + New.
Pick the firm and customer
- Choose the firm issuing the invoice (if you have more than one GSTIN).
- Choose the customer. Their details and GSTIN fill in automatically.
Set the dates and place of supply
- Invoice date (and due date if you offer credit).
- Place of supply — the customer’s state. This determines whether GST is CGST+SGST or IGST. See GST on Invoices.
Add line items
For each product or service:
- Pick the item — its rate, HSN/SAC, and GST rate fill in.
- Set the quantity (and adjust the rate or add a discount if needed).
- Clorvia shows the taxable value and GST for the line.
Review the totals
Clorvia totals the taxable value, the CGST/SGST/IGST, any cess, round-off, and the grand total.
Save and send
Save the invoice. You can then share it with your customer and record their payment when it arrives.
Numbering: give invoices a clear, sequential number (for example
INV-001,INV-002). Consistent numbering is part of GST compliance.
After saving
- Record a payment when the customer pays — Payments & Receipts.
- Track what’s owed from the customer’s record or your reports.
- Restore an invoice if you delete one by mistake — deleted records can be brought back.
