The E-Invoice Logs page (LSCMY E-Invoice Logs) records every API call made to ClearTax, whether from the background scheduler jobs or from a manual upload triggered at the POS or the Transaction Card. Use this page to troubleshoot submission failures, verify that a specific transaction was submitted, and review the ClearTax response for any e-Invoice.
Logging must be enabled in E-Invoice Setup for records to be written. See E-Invoice Setup.
To open the E-Invoice Logs page:
- Click the
icon, enter E-Invoice Logs, and select the relevant link.

Retention policy
E-Invoice Log records are registered as an allowed table in the Business Central Retention Policy framework during installation. This means you can configure a retention policy in BC to automatically delete log entries older than a specified number of days, keeping the log table from growing indefinitely.
To configure a retention policy for E-Invoice Logs, navigate to Retention Policies in Business Central and create or update a policy for the LSCMY E-Invoice Log table.
