The Best Methods To Validate Duplicate GST Number In Logic ERP Software
This tutorial demonstrates the methods available in Logic ERP to validate duplicate GST numbers when creating a new account.
Access Account Setup
Navigate to the Setup > Setup Accounts and the click on "Setup New Account"
At the bottom, use the shortcut key F5 to open the configuration settings.
Locate the option labeled as
“Validate Duplicate GST No. As”.
You will find two validation methods:
Prompt if GST number already exists
Do not allow saving if GST number already exists

Method 1: Prompt if GST Number Already Exists
Select the option Prompt if GST number already exists.
Save the changes.
Copy the GST number from an existing account.
Create a new account and paste the same GST number.
When saving, the system displays a prompt message:
“GST number already exists for another party. Do you want to continue with the same GST number?”

This method allows flexibility—you can still save the account if required, but with a warning.
Method 2: Do Not Allow Saving if GST Number Already Exists
Select the option Do not allow saving if GST number already exists.
Save the changes.
Create a new account and paste an existing GST number.
On saving, the system displays an error message:
“GST number already exists.”

The software blocks the account creation until a unique GST number is entered.
This method enforces strict compliance, ensuring no duplicate GST numbers are allowed.
Comparison of Both Methods
Prompt if GST already exists

Do not allow saving if duplicate
Prevents saving; duplicate GST numbers are not accepted.
Key Benefits
