- Party wise Reconciliation – While reconciling ITC as per 2A and ITC (B2B) as per books of accounts with the criteria of invoice number only, there are several problems being faced. Firstly, mismatch of invoice number due to minor clerical error in entering the invoice number in books, which led to mismatch of large number of invoices which is otherwise in match.
