In a phased manner, the new system will make the entire process of submission and backend processing of bills completely paperless and transparent.  Thus, it is a major step forward in realizing the vision of “Digital India” and promoting ease of doing business. 

The objectives of the system are to:

1. Provide convenience to all vendors/suppliers of the government to submit their bills/claims at any time, from anywhere. 
2. Eliminate physical interface between suppliers and government officers.
3. Enhance efficiency in the processing of bills/claims.
4. Reduce discretion in the processing of bills through the “First-In-First-Out”(FIFO) method.

Currently, the suppliers of various goods and services to the Government have to submit physical, ink signed copies of their bills to the respective Ministries/Departments/offices of the Government of India.  Tags: e way bill system, e way bill system check,

Similarly, government employees also need to submit hard copies of their claims.  At the backend too, the processing of bills is done through a mixed system of physical and digital modes. So the suppliers/vendors or their representatives need to visit the offices to deliver bills.  Moreover, they are unable to track the status of the processing of their bills. 

Under the newly launched e-Bill system

Under the newly launched e-Bill system, vendors/suppliers can upload their bills online along with supporting documents from the convenience of their homes/offices at any time through digital signature.  Tags: e way bill system customer care number, electronic bill system definition,

For those not having a digital signature, the facility of e-sign using the Aadhaar has also been provided. So, the suppliers will no longer be required to visit the offices concerned for this purpose. Tags: e way bill system download, e way bill system details,

At the backend too, the electronic bill received will be processed by the authorities digitally at every stage and finally, the payments will be credited digitally to the bank account of the vendor.
