New TDS Missed Entries Exception Report
Identify entries with TDS ledgers that are missing from your TDS reports
New Feature Report JOB-158823

📌 Overview

Some entries containing TDS ledgers were not reflecting in the TDS reports, making it difficult for users to fully rely on the TDS data for compliance. To address this, a brand new TDS Missed Entries exception report has been developed. This report displays all entries that contain TDS ledgers but have not been considered in the standard TDS reports — giving you complete visibility into any gaps.

🌟 What This Means for You

You can now confidently verify your TDS data before filing. The TDS Missed Entries report acts as a safety net, ensuring no TDS-related entries slip through the cracks. If any entries are listed here, you know exactly what needs attention — giving you full confidence in your TDS compliance.

🎬 How to Access It

Simply navigate to the report, and it will list all entries that have TDS ledgers but are missing from your TDS reports. Review the entries and take corrective action as needed.

Tip: Run this report periodically — especially before TDS return filing — to ensure all TDS-related entries are properly captured and nothing is missed.

Cashfree Bank Validation Integration
Verify bank account details at the time of ledger creation or edit using Cashfree’s validation service
New Feature JOB-157918

📌 Overview

RealBooks now integrates with Cashfree — a trusted third-party vendor — to validate whether a bank account number is valid or invalid. This validation happens at the time of ledger creation and ledger editing, and works for both Bank ledgers and Party ledgers. The verification is based on the account number and the updated IFSC code entered in the ledger master.

🌟 What This Means for You

Before making any bank payment via FTP, you can now be confident that the recipient’s bank details are verified and valid. If the bank details are not verified, bank payments via FTP will not be processed — even if the entry has been approved in RealBooks. This adds a critical layer of security to your payment workflow, preventing payments to incorrect or invalid bank accounts.

🎬 How It Works

1. While creating or editing a Bank or Party ledger, enter the account number and IFSC code.
2. The system will validate the bank details via Cashfree’s bank validation service.
3. If the account is valid, the ledger can be saved and FTP payments will proceed normally.
4. If the account is invalid or unverified, the system will flag it — and bank payments via FTP will be blocked until the details are corrected and verified.

Important: This is a parametric feature and is not enabled by default. To get it activated for your organization, please reach out to the RealBooks Support Team.
Good to know: This validation is powered by Cashfree and requires a valid IFSC code. Ensure your ledger masters have up-to-date IFSC codes for accurate verification. Unverified accounts will not block entry creation, but will prevent FTP payment processing.

Generate Invoice Option for Stock Transfer Entries via Voucher Listing Report
Quickly generate invoices for stock transfers using the new Generate option or the G shortcut key
Report Enhancement JOB-158330

📌 Overview

A new Generate Invoice option has been added for Stock Transfer entries in the Voucher Listing Report. You can now generate invoices directly from the report without needing to open each entry individually. Additionally, a convenient keyboard shortcut G is available — simply select a Stock Transfer entry and press G to instantly trigger the invoice generation pop-up.

🌟 What This Means for You

No more navigating away from the Voucher Listing Report to generate invoices for stock transfers. Whether you prefer clicking the option or using the keyboard shortcut, invoice generation is now just one step away — saving you time and keeping your workflow seamless.

🎬 How to Use It

1. Go to Reports → Inventory → Stock → Voucher Listing.
2. Locate and select the Stock Transfer entry you want to generate an invoice for.
3. Use the Generate Invoice option, or simply press the G key on your keyboard.
4. The invoice generation pop-up will appear — select the appropriate template and proceed.

Tip: The G shortcut works when you have a Stock Transfer entry selected in the listing. It’s the fastest way to generate invoices without taking your hands off the keyboard!

Bill Date Now Separated into Its Own Column in Purchase Register Excel Export
Ref No. and Ref Date are now in separate columns for cleaner Excel exports
Report Enhancement JOB-158479

📌 Overview

Previously, the Ref No. column in the Purchase Register (Voucher Wise) Excel export contained both the Bill Number and Bill Date combined in a single column, separated by a comma. This made it difficult to sort, filter, or work with bill dates independently in Excel.

With this enhancement, the Ref No. column now contains only the Bill Number, and a brand new Ref Date column has been added right next to it containing the Bill Date.

🌟 What This Means for You

Your Excel exports are now cleaner and easier to work with. You can independently sort, filter, and analyze by Bill Number or Bill Date without needing to manually split the data. This applies to both Excel and Custom Excel export types.

🎬 Where It Applies

This change applies to the following sub-types:

Purchase
Purchase Return
Purchase & Purchase Return

And both export types:

Excel
Custom Excel

Note: This change only affects the Excel export. The on-screen report view remains unchanged.

BarCode Search Now Included in Simultaneous Item Search
Search items by BarCode alongside Item Name and Item Code when simultaneous search is enabled
Config Enhancement JOB-157922

📌 Overview

When the Simultaneous Item Search parameter is enabled from the Settings page, the search previously only worked with Item Name and Item Code. With this enhancement, the search now also includes BarCode — so you can find items by scanning or typing a barcode directly in the search field.

🌟 What This Means for You

If your workflow relies on barcodes, you no longer need to switch between search modes. Simply type or scan the barcode in the simultaneous search field, and the system will find the matching item instantly — just like it does for Item Name and Item Code. One search field, three ways to find your item!

🎬 How to Use It

1. Ensure the Simultaneous Item Search parameter is enabled in your Settings page.
2. In any item search field, type or scan the BarCode.
3. The system will search across Item Name, Item Code, and BarCode simultaneously and display the matching results.

Date Range Now Included in Purchase & Sale Register Excel Exports (Voucher Wise Item Wise)
The selected date range is now displayed in the exported Excel file for easy reference
Report Enhancement JOB-158940

📌 Overview

When exporting Purchase Register or Sale Register data in the Voucher Wise Item Wise Excel format, the date range selected in the report was previously not included in the exported file. This made it difficult to identify which period the exported data belonged to. The selected date is now available in the Excel export.

🌟 What This Means for You

Your exported Excel files now clearly show the date range, making it easier to identify, organize, and share period-specific data without confusion. No more guessing which date range a particular export covers!

🎬 Where It Applies

Purchase Register (Voucher Wise Item Wise):

• Purchase
• Purchase Return
• Purchase & Purchase Return

Sale Register (Voucher Wise Item Wise):

• Sale
• Sale Return
• Sale & Sale Return

Opening Balance Support in Link Wise Summary Report
No longer need to run the report from company start date — opening balances are now included for any selected date range
Report Enhancement JOB-153809

📌 Overview

Previously, to get accurate data in the Link Wise Summary report, users had to run the report from the start of the company so that all entries for a reference number were considered. If a specific month was selected, older transactions for that reference were not included — leading to incomplete data.

With this enhancement, the report now shows the opening balance for each reference as on the selected date range, so you no longer need to run the report from the very beginning.

🌟 What This Means for You

You can now run the Link Wise Summary report for any specific month or date range and still get the complete picture. The opening balance ensures you see the correct closing balance without having to process data from the start of the company every time.

🎬 How It Works

The following logic is now applied:

• If any transaction has happened for a reference in the selected date range, the report will show the opening balance of that reference — even if the first transaction date falls outside the current period.

• If no transaction has happened for a reference in the selected date range, the report will still include the reference with its opening balance.

• The reference data appears in both the Summary and Detail sheets, with transactions for the selected period and the opening balance as on the start of the date range.

• The Difference & Subtotal calculations now factor in the opening balance to display the correct closing balance.

Important: This is a parametric feature and is enabled on demand. Kindly get in touch with the RealBooks Support Team to enable it for your organization.
Good to know: The export will always be generated for pending links, irrespective of any dropdown selection (All, Pending, or Nil).

Error When Selecting the Same GST Ledger After Changing Item in Purchase Order or Sale Order
Changing an item and reselecting the same GST ledger no longer throws an incorrect “select an item” error
Bug Fix JOB-159048

📌 What Was Happening

When editing a Purchase Order or Sale Order, if you changed the item and then selected the same GST ledger that was already used for the original item, pressing Tab or Enter triggered an incorrect error message: “You have to select an item”. This blocked the user from proceeding, even though the item was already selected and valid.

🌟 How This Helps You

You can now freely change items in edit mode and reselect the same GST ledger without any errors. The system correctly recognizes the selected item, so your order editing workflow remains smooth and uninterrupted.

Sale Order & Purchase Order — Entry Saved in Wrong Segment When Segment Was Switched in Another Tab
Ctrl + S no longer bypasses the segment-switch warning, preventing cross-segment data mismatches
Bug Fix JOB-154348

📌 What Was Happening

A critical data integrity issue was reported: a user created an entry in the Haridwar segment, but it got saved in the Kolkata segment instead. The Business Place in the entry was also reflecting as Uttarakhand inside the Kolkata segment, even though no changes were made to the entry itself.

After investigation, the root cause was identified — the user had switched the segment in another tab. While the current tab showed a “segment switched” warning on screen, the user was still able to save the entry using the Ctrl + S shortcut, bypassing the warning. This caused a mismatch where one database table recorded Haridwar as the segment while the remaining tables saved Kolkata.

🌟 How This Helps You

The Ctrl + S shortcut now correctly respects the segment-switch warning. If the segment has been changed in another tab, the system will block the save action and prompt you to refresh — preventing any cross-segment data mismatches. Your entries will always be saved in the correct segment.

Good to know: If you work with multiple tabs and switch segments frequently, always pay attention to the segment-switch warning. The system now ensures that no data can be saved until the page is refreshed with the correct segment context.

B3
Purchase Order Now Validates GST Tax Details Before Saving
Prevents Purchase Orders from being saved without applicable GST, protecting downstream Sale Orders and entries
Bug Fix JOB-158522

📌 What Was Happening

In certain cases, a Purchase Order was being saved without GST tax calculated on the items — even though all necessary configurations were in place (GST-registered Company/Segment, GST-registered Party, Input Tax configured in Item Master, and GST enabled in the Voucher Type). This caused a ripple effect: the auto-posted Sale Order (via Interbranch auto-posting) and its related Sales entry were also impacted with missing tax details.

🌟 How This Helps You

A new validation has been added to safeguard your data. The system will now prevent saving a Purchase Order without GST tax details when all the following conditions are met:

• The Company/Segment is marked as GST Registered
• The Party is GST Registered
• The Item Master has Input Tax configured
GST is enabled in the Voucher Type

This ensures your Purchase Orders always carry the correct tax information, and any downstream auto-posted Sale Orders and entries remain accurate.

Good to know: This validation acts as a safety net against any system glitch or unintended behavior. If you see the validation message, simply verify your tax configuration and re-enter the tax details before saving.

Stock Journal CWIP, CON & Physical Entries Now Open Properly from Item Register, Exception Report & Stock Movement Drill-Down
Edit mode access fixed for all Stock Journal variations across additional reports
Bug Fix JOB-158690

📌 What Was Happening

Similar to the issue previously fixed in the Stock Journal Report (JOB-158260), the same problem existed in other reports as well. Stock Journal CWIP, Stock Journal CON, and Stock Journal Physical entries wouldn’t open in edit mode when accessed from the Item Register, Exception Report, and the drill-down of the Stock Movement Report.

🌟 How This Helps You

All Stock Journal variations — CWIP, CON, and Physical — now open correctly in edit mode from these reports as well. No workarounds needed, regardless of which report you’re navigating from.

🛠 Where to Find It

Also applies to the drill-down view of the Stock Movement Report.

Sales Transaction Now Also Validates Business Place Before Saving
Business Place validation extended from Sale Order to Sales entries, preventing missing GSTIN data
Bug Fix JOB-157298

📌 What Was Happening

Previously, the Business Place was sometimes getting skipped in Sale Orders even when the configuration was done correctly. This was suspected to occur due to frequent switching of segments across different browser tabs. A validation was already added for Sale Orders to block saving if the Company is GST registered, the GSTIN is assigned to the segment, and the appropriate Business Place is missing.

However, the same issue was also occurring in Sales transactions, where the Business Place could be saved as blank under similar conditions.

🌟 How This Helps You

The Business Place validation has now been extended to Sales transactions as well. If your Company is GST registered and the GSTIN is assigned to the segment, the system will block the save if the Business Place is missing — ensuring your GST compliance data is always complete and accurate across both Sale Orders and Sales entries.

Good to know: This validation works as a safety net. If you see the validation message, simply select the correct Business Place before saving. This prevents any downstream GST filing issues caused by missing Business Place information.
