ExpressGST || Invoice Management System (IMS) Dashboard
The Invoice Management System (IMS) is an integrated feature within the GST framework that enables recipients to manage invoices filed by suppliers through GSTR-1, GSTR-1A, or IFF. Recipients can take necessary actions—Accept, Reject, or Mark as Pending—to ensure accurate and timely availment of Input Tax Credit (ITC).
Additionally, users can import their book data to reconcile it against GST data, facilitating informed decisions directly within the IMS Dashboard.
