Prerequisites to bulk generate e-Way Bills/consolidated e-Way Bills are:
Templates are available for following:
1. To bulk-generate Eway bills
You can use either of the below two methods of preparing the data file for uploading on the portal to generate Bulk EWB :
Step-1: Download the JSON template- “E-Way Bill JSON Format” / “Consolidated E-Way Bill JSON Format” file
Step-2: Update the downloaded file with the requisite details. The file in JSON is ready for upload.
The tool helps convert the multiple e-Way Bills/Consolidated EWBs excel file into a single JSON file.
Step-3: Update the .xlsx file (excel template) with the requisite details.
Step-4: Use the .xlsm converter tool to convert the excel file into a JSON file.
The resulting file in JSON is ready for upload.
The second method i.e. using bulk converter tool to convert excel into JSON template is preferable over the first i.e. updating JSON template directly and using it. The reason being there is a validation that takes place when you convert the updated excel template into the JSON template, where any errors shall be reported to you for your corrections even before uploading the JSON file.
2. To bulk-update vehicle details
Download the ‘Vehicle No Updation JSON Preparation’ template from ‘Bulk Generation Tools’ available under ‘How to use’ from home page tabs.
Once the template is downloaded, fill up the details and validate the file by clicking on ‘Validate’ button in the excel file. After validating for any errors, Click on ‘Prepare JSON’. The JSON file is ready for use!
