My TDS amounts look wrong or empty in the formatted preview — how do I fix that?

Last updated on Apr 14, 2026

Short Answer: Open 'Configure books data', ensure 'TDS amount' is set to the correct column, verify values in 'Formatted preview (first 5 rows)', then click 'Save & apply'.

PreRequisites

  1. Books file uploaded and 'Configure books data' modal open.

Steps

  1. Open 'Configure books data' for your books file.
    You will see mapping fields including 'TDS amount' and a 'Formatted preview (first 5 rows)'.

  2. Under 'TDS amount', click 'Select column' and choose the column that contains TDS values from your file.
    The TDS values populate in the 'Formatted preview (first 5 rows)'.

  3. If values include currency symbols or appear parsed incorrectly, clean the source column in your file so it contains numeric values only, then re-upload the file, or select a different column if appropriate.
    Correct numeric TDS amounts should appear in the preview.

  4. Click 'Save & apply' to persist the corrected mapping.
    The books mapping is saved with correct TDS amounts for reconciliation.

Troubleshooting

  1. TDS shows 0.00 or blank after selecting column.

    Likely Cause:
    • Values include text or formatting that prevents numeric parsing.

    Action:
    • Remove non-numeric characters (such as commas or currency symbols) from the source column and re-upload the file, or choose the correct numeric column.

Note: Check 'Formatted preview (first 5 rows)' immediately after selecting the TDS column to confirm the values are correct.
