Reports look empty or numbers don't match
Most often you're viewing a different organization than the one that holds the data.
- Check the organization name shown in the header — that's your active tenant.
- The fully reconciled data lives on the demo's default organization; log out and back in to reset to it.
- Confirm the report's date range — financial reports default to FY2024-25; widen it if your data is elsewhere.
- After a backend change, refresh the page so the latest API response is used.
Tenant mismatch
If you manually switched organizations, switch back to the reconciled one to see Excel-matched figures.
Changes not showing up

uvicorn. - Changes to
next.configrequire a manual frontend restart — they are not hot-reloaded. - Clear the browser cache after a frontend rebuild.
GST treatment looks wrong
- Verify the customer/vendor GSTIN and the invoice place of supply — these drive intrastate vs interstate tax.
- Intrastate splits into CGST + SGST; interstate uses IGST.
- Check item GST rates and HSN/SAC codes on the lines.
