From the May month return credit note issued is taken in negative amount as it is deducted from sales and it ultimately decrease the sales amount. You can file the return, their is no problem regarding that.

you should enter the amount, and amount can't be in negative figure.

Before filing the return you should take a screenshot of the screen and tag the @ askGST on Twitter and also raise grievance. If problem is resolved then file according otherwise later file the GSTR-1 in negative figure only.

Also you should file GSTR-3B with net taxable value after deducting the amount of those credit note.

Than okay otherwise generate CSV File and exclude Credit note Amount from B2B & B2C
