Description of HSN

I used to file GSTR 1 using software . In HSN summary descripttion column remains blank, but when you write HSN code manually on portal it shows descripttion. so shall I file the GSTR 1 without descripttion by using software or I should fill HSN summary manually.?
I use GENIUS software

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common issue with filing GSTR 1 using software, where the HSN description column remains blank. While HSN codes are mandatory, the software doesn't always auto-populate the description. The consensus is that you can file GSTR 1 without the description if your software doesn't capture it, as the HSN code itself is the critical element. However, it's noted that manual entry on the portal often retrieves the description automatically.

HSN is mandatory , so even if descripttion is not captured need not worry. Yes you can file without descripttion.

Note : But even though it is being uploaded by any software, once the HSN is provided it automatically picks the descripttion.
Hsn is being conceptualized to give a better understanding of the nature of goods.
But recently there is a circular where it has been made mandatory to give details of hsn code.
Ok thanks
