GST & Billing Configuration

ZippCRM automatically calculates GST on invoices based on the billing state of both your firm and the client. This section explains what to configure so invoices are GST-compliant.

SettingWhere to set itEffect on invoices
Your firm's GSTINAdmin → Organisation → TaxAppears as "Supplier GSTIN" on all invoices
Your firm's stateAdmin → Organisation → AddressDetermines CGST+SGST vs IGST split
Client GSTINClient record → Tax detailsAppears as "Recipient GSTIN"
Client stateClient record → Billing addressSame state = CGST+SGST; Different state = IGST
GST rateInvoice line item (default 18%)Calculated on taxable amount
TDS rateClient record → TDS settingsDeducted from payable amount on invoice
Before sending your first invoiceVerify that your firm GSTIN and the client GSTIN are both correct. A wrong GSTIN on a sent invoice requires a credit note to correct — it cannot be edited after sending.

Email (SMTP) Configuration

ZippCRM sends all outgoing emails through your configured SMTP server. Without SMTP configured, no emails will be delivered to clients.

2

Enter SMTP Host, Port, Username, Password

Use your firm's SMTP credentials or a transactional email service (SendGrid, Mailgun, SES).

3

Set From Name and From Email

This is what clients see in their inbox. Use something professional like 'ZippCRM Notifications '.

4

Click 'Send Test Email'

Sends a test message to your admin email. Confirm receipt before saving.

5

Save — emails are now active

All system-generated emails (invoices, alerts, notifications) will now reach clients.

If test email failsCheck port number (587 for TLS, 465 for SSL, 25 for plain), credentials, and whether your SMTP provider requires app-specific passwords. Contact your IT team if using internal mail servers.
