E-way bill

Shipments have an E-way bill no. field (12 digits). It is shown on the shipment, the invoice and the LR.

Lorry Receipt (LR / bilty)

The shipment page has an LR card. Fill it in and download the LR PDF:

The LR number is generated automatically. The LR date is editable.
Freight basis: PAID, TO PAY, or TO BE BILLED (TBB).
GST payable by: Consignor, Consignee, or Transporter (forward charge).
Risk: at owner's risk, or at carrier's risk.
The consignor's invoice number and value, and the charged weight.

The consignor, consignee, route, vehicle and driver are taken from the shipment and its load.

Coming later: direct e-way bill and GST e-invoice (IRN) generation through the government APIs is on our roadmap. For now, generate those on the government portal and enter the numbers in Optrix.
