About this skill

About Invoice checker

Invoices with wrong tax, broken arithmetic or missing details get paid and cause problems at reconciliation or filing time. This skill checks the required fields, recomputes every line and total, verifies that CGST and SGST or IGST match the place of supply and compares the total with your purchase order. You get a pass or fail verdict, the exact errors and questions for the supplier. It's a check, not tax advice — doubtful cases go to your chartered accountant. To use it, paste the skill into your assistant and send the invoice text (or line items, tax rates and totals) and the PO or agreed amount if you have it.
