This new update mainly helps suppliers when a buyer rejects a document, such as a Credit Note or Debit Note. The following are the key points:

• A new tab will show all rejected Credit Notes, Debit Notes, and their amended records.
• It clearly identifies the cases where the supplier needs to add back tax liability in Form GSTR-3B, because the recipient did not accept the adjustment.
• Suppliers can also download the data in Excel to match it with their own accounting records.
• If a rejection happened by mistake, the supplier can report the same document again in Form GSTR-1A or the amendment tables in later months, so the recipient can accept it.
