Manage User Permissions

GSTZen will give you an option to assign different users to different business entities and control what rights they have through Permissions management. Permissions can be given at PAN level and at GSTIN level. The permissions are applicable both for the process of return filing and for generating e-invoices.  GSTZen allows the administrator to limit the ability of the users to access the data of other PANs or GSTINs as he may see fit i.e. the user will only be able to access the data for the PANs or GSTINs he is given access to. There are three levels of permissions that can be assigned to the user

  • Reader – Has read only permission. Cannot make any modifications.
  • Writer – Role with write permission. Can create or upload invoices.
  • Generator – Can create/cancel e-invoices and eway bills
  • Filer – Can sign and file returns. Can modify mapping for creating e-invoices through excel.
