Question

Why are my purchase returns not showing in GST returns?

Answer

If purchase return not showing up in the GSTR2 or GSTR3B report in the BUSY software. This could happen for the following reasons:-
Step 1: You might have selected the G.S.T Nature incorrectly. For instance, you might have chosen a Debit Note issued against sale under Dr. Note (w/o items) instead of selecting a Credit Note issued against sale as GST NATURE under Cr. Note(w/o items) voucher.
To resolve this issue, please follow the steps mentioned below:
Step 1: Either select Cr. Note Received against purchase under the Dr. Note (w/o items) voucher or select Dr. Note received against purchase under the Cr. Note (w/o items) voucher.
If you are using the monthly ITC tagging option for purchase, make sure to check if you have tagged the purchase return voucher as well for that particular month from the Monthly ITC Tagging register.
Moreover, if you have set Skip in GST Report as "Y" in the purchase return type of the purchase return voucher, the vouchers will not show up in the GST Report. So, keep an eye on it.
By following these steps, the voucher should start appearing in the GSTR2 and GSTR3B report automatically.
