Create a delivery challan and convert it to an invoice
Quick answerIn MAJA Books go to Sales → Delivery Challans → New Delivery Challan, choose the customer, challan type and (optionally) the sales order, fill the dispatch details and items, and click Save & Mark Dispatched; later open it and choose Convert to Invoice to get a pre-filled invoice to review and save.
Steps

- Optionally choose the order in Against Sales Order (only this customer's open orders are listed).
- Under Dispatch Details, fill Vehicle Number, Driver Name, Transporter, Dispatched From and Dispatched To as needed.
- Under Items Dispatched, enter Description, Qty and Unit for each item. Click Add Line for more.
- Tick Show rate & value (internal reference only — not a tax document) if you want rates and a reference total on the challan.

- Click Save & Mark Dispatched, or Save Draft.
Convert the challan to an invoice
- Open the challan from the list.
- Click ··· and choose Convert to Invoice.

- Pick the income Account and VAT% on each line, check the place of supply, and click Save & Send.
What MAJA does for you
- A delivery challan is not a tax document: saving it posts no journal and does not move stock.
- When the pre-filled invoice saves, the challan is marked Invoiced. If you cancel the invoice, the challan stays as it was.
Good to know
- Stock leaves inventory when the invoice is saved, not when the challan is dispatched.
- A challan that is already invoiced cannot be converted again.
- Use PDF/Print on the challan to print it for the driver.
