Features
Everything Orbit Connect does
Every capability, grouped, with the plan it starts on. Nothing here is aspirational: each line is checked against the product.
Invoicing
GST tax invoices for every paid order, numbered the way your accountant expects.
Invoice any paid order
From StartupCreate a numbered GST tax invoice for an order in one click, from the Orders page in the app or from the order itself in Shopify admin.
Automatic invoices on payment
From BasicSwitch on automatic generation and each paid order gets its invoice as soon as Shopify reports the payment.
Off until you turn it on. Needs your GST details saved and the in-app data terms accepted.
Your numbering, your prefix
From StartupSet the prefix and starting number for each document type and each GST location, or use the Shopify order number as the invoice number.
Invoice numbers are limited to 16 characters, the GST portal's maximum.
Invoice templates you can shape
From StartupAdd your logo and accent color, choose a layout, rename labels and pick which product fields print, with a live preview. Invoices, delivery notes and packing slips each have their own template.
Shipping and COD as their own lines
From StartupShipping, cash-on-delivery and handling fees appear as separate invoice lines, each with its own tax worked out from Shopify's tax on the order or your store's default rate.
One invoice per shipment
From BasicShip an order in parts and issue a separate invoice for each shipment, under the GST registration and number series of the location that shipped it.
Off by default. You choose how shipping is split across shipments.
Repeat B2B buyers remembered
From BasicA business customer's GSTIN and company name are saved once and filled in on their next order.
GSTIN capture on the cart page
From BasicAdd a GST details block to your cart page so business buyers can enter their company name and GSTIN before checkout.
You add the block from your theme editor. It works on the cart page, not at checkout.
GST & compliance
Rates, HSN codes and report data that your accountant can review.
GST and HSN, set once
From StartupSet the GST rate and HSN/SAC code on each product, or state a rate once for a whole collection. Import and export in bulk with CSV.
A clear order for GST rates
From StartupEach invoice line takes its rate from the product's own GST rate first, then your collection rule, then the tax Shopify calculated for the order, then your store's default rate. Prices can be tax-inclusive or tax-exclusive.
Shopify's tax is used unless you choose to use Orbit Connect's rates only.
GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and IFF working data
From StartupDownload validated GSTR-1 and IFF data as JSON or CSV, plus a GSTR-3B summary and an HSN summary as CSV, for your accountant to review.
Working data, not a filed return. Have your tax professional check it before you file.
e-Invoice and e-Credit Note
From GrowthFor businesses that need e-invoicing: see which B2B invoices are missing fields the invoice registration portal requires, then submit invoices and credit notes through your own GST Suvidha Provider (GSP) account.
You need your own GSP account. Orbit Connect does not connect to the government portal directly.
Delivery
Get the invoice to the customer without anyone copying files around.
Invoices by email
From GrowthTurn on email delivery and each new invoice is sent to the customer as a PDF. Customers who have opted out are skipped.
Off until you turn it on.
Send from your own domain
From GrowthConnect your own SMTP account so invoices go out from your address. The connection is tested before it is saved and the password is stored encrypted.
Invoices on WhatsApp
From GrowthSend an invoice PDF to a customer on WhatsApp through your own WhatsApp Business (Cloud API) account, once the customer's consent is recorded.
Sent per invoice from the app. WhatsApp's own messaging rules apply, and Meta bills its charges to you.
Download from the order page
From GrowthCustomers see a GST invoice download link on their order status page in their Shopify customer account. You can also add a secure invoice link to your order-confirmation email.
Download links are signed and expire.
Documents
Everything around the invoice, from credit notes to packing slips.
Credit notes, offline bills and estimates
From StartupCreate credit notes from Shopify refunds, linked to the original invoice number and date. Also create offline invoices, bills, purchases and estimates for sales outside Shopify.
Bulk downloads
From BasicPick a set of orders and download their invoices as a ZIP of PDFs, or export a sales register as CSV.
Delivery notes and packing slips
From BasicGenerate delivery notes and packing slips for selected orders, and a combined logistics manifest, from live Shopify order data.
Print from Shopify POS
From BasicStaff can print an order's GST invoice from the order details screen in Shopify POS.
Opens the device's print dialog. The invoice must already exist for the order.
Integrations
Keep your accounting and ERP tools in step with Shopify.
Odoo sync
From AdvancedPush invoices and credit notes for any date range to your Odoo, each with its customer, sale order and delivery, so stock and accounts move together. Syncs run in the background and Odoo kits are supported.
Needs an Odoo instance with API access: self-hosted, Odoo.sh, or Odoo Online on a Custom plan.
Single-ledger mode for Odoo
From AdvancedBook every order against one Odoo contact, such as your payment gateway, instead of one customer per checkout, so reconciliation matches the gateway's payout.
Zoho Books
From AdvancedConnect your Zoho Books organization and sync invoices and credit notes for a date range.
Tally export
From AdvancedDownload a Tally-importable XML file of your vouchers for any date range and import it into TallyPrime.
A file export, not a live connection to Tally.
API access
From AdvancedCreate API keys and use them to fetch an order's signed invoice link from your own systems.
Today the API has one endpoint: get an order's invoice link.
Priority support
From AdvancedSupport requests from Advanced customers are handled ahead of requests from other plans.
No response-time guarantee is published.
Data & security
Invoices carry customers' names, addresses and GSTINs, so the app is built to protect them.
Sensitive fields encrypted
From StartupCustomer names, contact details, addresses and GSTINs on your documents are encrypted with AES-256-GCM before they are stored, as are the credentials you save for integrations.
Covers specific sensitive fields. The security page lists what is and is not field-encrypted.
Data-protection controls in the app
From StartupAccept the data-processing terms, set how long documents are kept, record customer delivery consent and opt-outs, and run the retention clean-up.
Audit trail
From StartupReport exports, document downloads, consent changes and integration connections are logged per store. Audit records are kept for a year.
Expiring, revocable download links
From StartupInvoice download links use random tokens that are stored only as hashes, expire, can be limited in use and can be revoked.
Shopify privacy requests
From StartupShopify's customer data-request and customer-erasure requests, and shop erasure after uninstall, are received and processed by the app.
