Installation
Get GST Manager live in three steps: upload, activate (which auto-applies core hook points), and configure your company details.
Prerequisites: a server meeting the Requirements (especially the ionCube Loader).
1. Upload the plugin
Admin → Plugins → Upload Plugin → upload relyweb-gstmanager-vX.Y.Z.zip.
AcelleMail extracts the plugin to storage/app/plugins/relyweb/gstmanager/ and lists it as inactive, ready to activate.
2. Activate the plugin
Admin → Plugins → GST Manager → Activate.
Activation handles the setup automatically:
- Database migration: creates tables and seeds defaults (24 config keys and 38 Indian states).
- Tax settings: mirrors your default GST rate into AcelleMail's tax settings for new orders.
- Core hook points: auto-applies the 4 extension points (GST invoice PDF, GSTIN field, export numbering, and tax on order totals).
Hardened hosts & SSH fallback
On standard (cPanel) hosts, the hook points apply automatically with no SSH. On hardened hosts where the web process cannot write core files, the GST Manager dashboard displays a banner with a one-line SSH command to complete the patch. See Apply the core hook points.
3. License and configure
- GST Manager → Plugin Settings → License → enter and activate your license key. (Until the license is Active, the dashboard, Setup and Reports stay locked.)
- Open Setup to configure company details: GSTIN, registered state, tax rate, invoice identity, and bank details.
See the Configuration guide for a walkthrough of every field.
4. Verify
- Confirm the GSTIN field appears on customer contact pages.
- Download an invoice to verify the GST Tax Invoice PDF renders.
