Open the posted sale in Aicountly Billing and look for the e-Invoice and e-Way Bill card on it. It shows the current status of each document, and the buttons Generate e-Invoice, Generate e-Way Bill and Generate both, depending on what your role is allowed to do and what has not been generated yet.
For an e-Way Bill, Billing asks how the goods travel (road, rail, air or ship). For road transport you give a vehicle number or a transporter ID; you can also add a transporter ID and the distance in km, and if you leave the distance blank the portal works it out from the PIN codes. Billing then asks you to confirm before filing.
Check the customer, GSTIN, items and amounts first: the filing goes to the government GST portal through Smart Books and stays on record there. Billing's own prompt notes that an e-Invoice can be cancelled only within 24 hours and cannot be edited. If the card says your role in Smart Books does not include GST filing, the company owner needs to grant that access there.
