Tally Notes Account: Account is a summarized record of all the transactions relating to every person, every thing or property and every type of service. Ledger: The book of final entry where accounts lie. Journal entries: A daily record of transaction. Trail Balance: It is a statement of all the ledger account balances prepared at the end of particular period to verify the accuracy of the entries made in books of accounts. Profit: Excess of credit side over debit side. Profit and loss account: It is prepared to ascertain actual profit or loss of the business.

Journals Journal entry is an entry to the journal. Journal is a record that keeps accounting transactions in chronological order, i.e. as they occur. Ledger is a record that keeps accounting transactions by accounts. Account is a unit to record and summarize accounting transactions. When a small business makes a financial transaction, they make a journal entry in their accounting journal in order to record that transaction. The transaction is recorded in the general journal or one of the special journals for the most active accounts. The most common special journals are the Sales Journal, the Purchases Journal, the Cash Receipts Journal, and the Cash Disbursements Journal.

An accounting journal is a detailed record of the financial transactions of the business. The transactions are listed in chronological order, by amount, by accounts that are affected, and in what direction those accounts are affected. Depending on the size and complexity of the business, a reference number can be assigned to each transaction and a note may be attached explaining the transaction. The accounting journal is the place where the details lie. The general ledger is where you look for the big picture. A sample accounting journal page has columns for the date, the account, the amount of the debit, and the amount of the credit.

Examples of ledgers that may be opened under this group are Share Capital, Partners' Capital A/c, Proprietor's Capital Account.

14

Tally Notes 2. Current Assets Directly under Current Assets, you may find place for assets that do not fall under the following sub groups: Bank Accounts For Current, savings, short term deposit accounts, etc. Cash-in hand Tally automatically opens one Cash A/c under this group. You are permitted to open more cash accounts, if necessary. Note: An account under Cash-in-hand group or Bank Accounts/Bank OCC A/c group is printed as separate Cash Book in the traditional Cash Book format and does not form part of the Ledger. Deposits (Asset) In essence, a place for Fixed Deposits, Security Deposits, or any deposit made by the company (not received by the company, which is a liability). Loans & Advances (Asset) For all loans given by the company and advances of a non-trading nature, e.g., advance against salaries, or even for purchase of Fixed Assets. We do not recommend you to open Advances to Suppliers account under this group. Doing so gives rise to the difficulty in ascertaining advance position of a particular supplier and to adjust future bills against such advances. For further details, please refer to the section on Common Errors. Stock-in-hand This is a special group. You may wish to open accounts like Raw Materials, Work-in- Progress and Finished Goods. How the balances are controlled depends on whether you opted to maintain an integrated account-cum-inventory system in the company features. (refer to Company creation section for more details) Let's consider the options: Integrated Accounts-cum-Inventory You are allowed transactions in Inventory records and the account balances are automatically reflected in the Balance Sheet as Closing Stock. You are not allowed to directly change the closing balance of an account under this group. Non-integrated Accounts-cum-Inventory Accounts that fall under this group are not permitted any transactions. It allows you to hold opening and closing balances only. Since no vouchers can be passed for these accounts, they are the only accounts for which the closing balances can be directly altered (by an authorised user only) Sundry Debtors For your customer accounts. Do not open them under the Sales Account group, which is a revenue account. For more information on common and possible errors in grouping of accounts, please refer below to the separate paragraph on the topic.

3. Current Liabilities You may open accounts like Outstanding Liabilities, Statutory Liabilities and other minor liabilities directly under this group. Sub-groups under Current Liabilities are Duties and Taxes, Provisions and Sundry Creditors Duties and Taxes

15

Tally Notes For all tax accounts like VAT, MODVAT, Excise, Sales and other trade taxes. A convenient place to find the total liability (or asset in case of advances paid), as well as the break-up of individual items. Provisions For provision accounts like Provision for Taxation, Provision for Depreciation, etc. Sundry Creditors For trade creditors of the company. Do not open your supplier accounts under the Purchases Account group, which is a revenue account. For more information on common and possible errors in grouping of accounts, please refer below to the separate paragraph on the topic. 4. Investments To group your investment accounts like Investment in Shares, Bonds, Govt. securities, long term Bank deposit accounts, etc. A convenient place to view the total investments made by the company. 5. Loans (Liability) For loans, typically long term, taken by the company. Bank OD Accounts [Bank OCC Accounts] Tally gives two distinct types of Bank Accounts, The Bank OCC A/c is meant to record the company's overdraft accounts with banks. e.g., Bill Discounted A/cs, Hypothecation A/cs etc. Note: An account under Bank OCC A/c group is printed as separate Cash Book in the traditional Cash Book format and does not form part of the Ledger. Secured Loans For term loans and other long/medium term loans that have been obtained against security of some asset. Tally does not verify the existence of the security. Typical accounts would be Debentures, Term Loans, etc. Unsecured Loans For loans obtained without any security .e.g., Loans from Directors/partners or outside parties. 6. Suspense Account Theoretically speaking, this group should not exist. However, in modern accounting, many large corporations use a Suspense Ledger to track moneys paid or recovered, the nature of which is not yet known. The most common example is money paid for Travelling Advance whose details would be known only upon submission of the TA bill. Some companies may prefer to open such accounts under Loans and Advances (Asset) group. Please note that Suspense Account is a Balance Sheet item. Any expense account even if it has 'suspense' in its name, should be opened under a Revenue group like Indirect Expenses and not under Suspense Account group. 7. Miscellaneous Expenses (Asset) This group is typically used more for legal disclosure requirements, like Schedule VI of the Indian Companies Act. It should hold incorporation and pre-operative expenses. Companies would write off 16

Tally Notes a permissible portion of the account every year. A balance would remain to the extent not written off in Profit & Loss Account. Tally does not, however, show a loss, carried forward in the Profit & Loss Account, under this group. The Profit & Loss Account balance is shown separately in the Balance Sheet. 8. Branch/Divisions This group is provided to keep the ledger accounts of all companies that are your company's branches, divisions, affiliates, sister concerns, subsidiaries, etc. This is a group of convenience. You may not wish to utilise it in this manner. Note that Tally permits Sales and Purchase transactions to take place with accounts opened here. Remember, these are their accounts in your books and not their books of accounts. Just treat them as you would any party account. If you wish to maintain the books of that branch/division on you computer, you must open a separate company. (Tally allows maintenance of multiple company accounts). Revenue Primary Groups 9. Sales Account For different sales accounts. The natural segregation of your sales accounts could be based on Tax slabs or type of sales. This also becomes a simple mechanism for preparation of Tax returns. An example of such classification may be helpful: Classify under Sales Accounts the following sub-groups Domestic Sales Export Sales Now under Domestic Sales open the following ledgers: Sales (10%) Sales (5%) Sales (exempt) You may even open an account Sales Returns under the group Domestic Sales to view your net sales after returns (or the returns may be directly passed through journal against the specific sales account). Please do not open customer accounts under this group. For more details on possible errors in this regard, please refer to the paragraph given below. 10. Purchase Account This is similar to sales accounts, except for the purpose of the transaction. 11. Direct Income [Income Direct] For non-trade income accounts that affect Gross Profit. All trade income accounts would naturally fall under Sales Accounts. You may wish to use this group for accounts like Servicing Contract Charges that follow sales of equipment. If yours is a professional services company, you may not use the Sales Account group at all. Instead, open accounts like Professional Fees under this group. 12. Indirect Income [Income Indirect] For miscellaneous non-sale income accounts, e.g., Rent Received and Interest Received. 13. Direct Expenses [Expenses Direct] 17

Tally Notes For manufacturing or direct trading expenses. These accounts determine the Gross Profit of the company. the Profit & Loss Account which is a reserved primary account. You may use this account to pass adjustment entries through journal vouchers .e.g., transfer of profit or loss to Capital or Reserve account.

Cost Centres and Cost Categories Cost Centre A cost centre is a unit of an organization to which transactions can be allocated. Cost Centers are units to which costs or expenses are allocated and Profit Centers are units to which incomes are allocated. Tally.ERP 9's cost centres allow a dimensional analysis of financial information. Tally.ERP 9 gives you the cost centre break-up of each transaction as well as details of transactions for each cost centre. Cost Categories Cost Categories have been introduced specially for project oriented organisations as they require allocation of resources to parallel sets of cost centres. For example, the project is to construct an airport. The airport is the cost centre. For this project certain expenses are incurred by the project head. A simultaneous allocation of the amount has to be made for both the project and the project head. This requirement can be achieved using Tally.ERP 9's Cost Category feature. Any number of parallel allocations can be done as per requirements. Activating Cost Category and Cost Centre Ensure that you are at the Gateway of Tally of National Traders.

Tally Notes

Budgets Tally allows you to create multiple budgets. There could be a budget for specific purposes, e.g., for the bank, for the head office, optimistic budget, realistic budget, pessimistic budget, etc. Departmental Budgets can also be created, e.g., Marketing Budget, Finance Budget, etc. As usual, you first create budgets. You can of course alter them. Budget figures are used to compare against actuals and to display variances. This is done by bringing up a new column when displaying a statement and selecting the appropriate budget. We shall now go through the creation and alteration of budgets. Gateway of Tally > Accounts Info > Budgets How to Manage and Operate Budgets? Gateway of Tally > Accounts Info > Budgets Create Name Give the budget a name, in this case, Corporate Budget. As you may have other budgets as well, the name distinguishes them. Under In the true Tally tradition, you can have a hierarchical budget set-up. At the top level is the Primary Budget. You can set up more than one Primary Budget. Under each Primary Budget, sub-budgets can be created. Period of Budget Specify the period of the budget. The period could be a month, a year or any period starting from any date to any date. Set/Alter Budgets of You may want to set the budget for groups of ledger accounts or for ledger accounts individually or for cost centres or all of them. We shall take up budget for group only. Follow the same process for setting budgets for individual ledgers and cost centres. Alter a Budget Accts Info. > Budgets > Select the budget to alter 22

Tally Notes If you select to alter the Corporate Budget of Groups of ledger accounts, say Yes to 'Set / Alter Budgets of Groups'. The default is No. The same sub-screen for Group Budget pops up for alteration of the figures. Alter necessary fields and accept. Delete a Budget From the Menu Go to Alter select the Budget and Press [ALT]+[D] to delete it. Budget Variance The Trial Balance and Group Summaries carry an additional 'Budget Variance' button (Alt+B) which is active if Budgets are active and at least one budget exists. Pressing this button will create an automatic display of Budgets, Actuals with Percentage, Variance from budget with Percentage in three columns. This is a first-step offering of the facility and is being fine-tuned to enhance its range and diversity of options which you should see shortly.

Inventory Information The different inventory information that you would provide to Tally by way of masters are: Gateway of Tally > Inventory Info Stock Items Like Ledgers, Stock items are the primary inventory entity. You will use stock items while recording their receipts and issues. This is lowest level of information about your inventory. Each item that is required to be accounted for, needs to be created. In fact, you will create a stock ledger account for each item and Tally calls this account 'Stock Item'. Stock Groups Stock items can be grouped together under Stock Groups to reflect their classification based on some commonality. Grouping would enable easy location and reporting of stock items in statements. Hence, items of a particular brand can be grouped together so that you can extract stock of all items of that brand. For example, create Stock Groups like Sony, Maxell, Verbatim. Your stock items could then be Sony 3.5" disks, Maxell 3.5" disks, Sony tapes, Maxell tapes, etc. Classify the Sony products under the Stock Group Sony. Now you have ready details of all Sony products suitably classified. You may even group items as Raw materials and Finished Goods. You can create sub-groups of Stock Groups for deeper analysis. Stock Categories The concept is similar to Cost Categories. You may wish to refer to the Chapter on Cost Categories to grasp the similarity/differences. This option will come up in the menu only if you have opted for stock categories in [F11] Comp. Features. Stock Categories offers parallel classification of items. You may create Stock Categories like Floppy Disks and Floppy Drives. In the above example in Stock Groups, you would know how many Sony 3.5" floppies are in stock and separately, the stocks of Maxell floppies. You would also know from the Sony stock group the stock of all Sony items. However, should you require information like total stock of floppy disks or alternative items that could be used, these would be best available through Stock Categories. If you classify both Sony 3.5" diskettes and Maxell 3.5" diskettes under the Stock Category Floppy Disks, you know your total stock of floppy disks. Since the items are substitutes of each other, if one is out of stock, you can offer the other of the same category.

Tally Notes Note: The Stock Query option under Statements of Inventory Display will reveal the strength of this feature. Note: You should configure inventory info using [F12] and [F11] to select only those features that you need. Try not to select features that you do not need. Stock Groups Gateway of Tally > Inventory Info > Stock Groups What is a Stock Group? The concept of stock groups has been explained above. Before we consider stock groups you would need to know about stock items. Like Ledgers, Stock items are the primary inventory entity. You will use stock items while recording their receipts and issues. This is lowest level of information about your inventory. Each item which you want to account for, needs to be created. In fact, you will create a stock ledger account for each item and Tally calls this account 'Stock Item'. Stock items can be grouped together under Stock Groups to reflect their classification based on of some commonality. Grouping would enable easy location and reporting of stock items in statements. Hence, items of a particular brand can be grouped together so that you can extract stock of all items of that brand. For example, create Stock Groups like Sony, Maxell, Verbatim. Your stock items could then be Sony 3.5" disks, Maxell 3.5" disks, Sony tapes, Maxell tapes, etc. Classify the Sony products under the Stock Group Sony. Now you have ready details of all Sony products suitably classified. You may even group items as Raw materials and Finished Goods. You can create sub groups of Stock Groups for deeper analysis Creating a Stock Group Gateway of Tally > Inventory Info > Stock Groups > Single Create Name Give the name of the stock group. Here we wish to create a group Sony. Under Specify whether it is a primary group or a sub-group of another group. Select from the pop up list. Here we select Primary from the list. Use Alt+C to create a parent if you do not have the group you want in the list. Can quantities of items be ADDED? This really pertains to information on the stock items that you would create under this stock group – Sony in this case. The stock items created under the group should have similar units to be 'addable'. You obviously would not want to add Kgs with Pcs (where you have a group like 'Consumables' and items like 'grease' and 'rag cloth' which are measured in kg and metres respectively). We select Yes here because we want to create items like floppy disks and disk drives etc which at this point we feel would be addable and the total meaningful. You may later set it to No, if you find that the totals do not make sense. It is, possibly, easier to set it to No initially and later set it to Yes on assessing the item units in the group.

Receipt Entry (F6) Gateway of Tally > Accounting Vouchers > selecting F6, we get the Receipt voucher screen. Similar to Payment and Contra vouchers – the Single Entry Mode appears for Receipt Entry as well. Transactions accounting for money received are entered into Tally through the receipt voucher. For example, your company receives money from a customer for an earlier transaction. The customer account has to be credited and if cash is received – debit the cash account. If cheque is received debit the bank account where you will deposit the money received. 26

Sales and Purchase Voucher Entry In Accounts-with-Inventory Companies when Tracking Numbers is NOT activated We shall use sales as our voucher for discussion. The same applies to Purchases. You do not get the voucher types Receipt Note and Delivery Note in the Sales and Purchase Voucher sub-menus. In addition to the above particulars that are applicable for all types of vouchers, sales and purchase vouchers have special inventory considerations for accounts-with inventory companies. Sales and Purchase ledger accounts must have the option 'Are Inventory Values Affected' set to Yes for this section.

Sales Entry (F8) When a sales transaction takes place, a document, detailing the transaction (item name, tax, etc) has to be given to the buyer (debtor) as proof of purchase by him. This document is called "Invoice" or "Bill" or "Cash Memo". The practice of issuing an Invoice, which is in vogue, is available in Tally. 27

Tally Notes Gateway of Tally > Accounting Vouchers > selecting F8, Tally displays the Sales Invoice screen. The Invoice mode is default. To enter details of sale transactions – use Tally's Sales entry (F8 – in Accounting Vouchers). Sales entries can be made in the Voucher as well as Invoice Formats. Invoicing or sales invoicing is not very different from sales voucher entry. The advantage of using the invoice format for sales invoice entry is that, automatic calculations of taxes and duties (ledger accounts classified under the group 'Duties & Taxes') is possible. The default Sales Invoice screen appears as: Tally prompts for the Sales Ledger to be allocated to - at the beginning of the entry. There after, any number of stock items or account ledgers can be selected one after another – enabling faster data entry. This is possible as the option Use Common Ledger A/c for Item Allocation in F12: Configure on the invoice entry screen is set to YES (by default) There are two types of Invoices, namely, Item Invoice > you can select ITEMS for invoicing Account Invoice > you can select LEDGERS for invoicing Note: Click on the links – "Example" for more details

Types of Inventory Vouchers Tally is pre-programmed with a variety of inventory vouchers, each designed to perform a different job. The standard vouchers are: 28

Tally Notes 1. Receipt note voucher (Alt + F9) 2. Rejections-in voucher (Ctrl+F6) 3. Delivery note voucher (Alt +F8) 4. Rejections-out voucher (Alt+F6) 5. Stock journal voucher (Alt+F7) 6. Physical stock voucher (Alt+F10) Unless you have Tracking numbers activated in F11:Company Features, the Goods In Receipt Note and Goods Out Delivery Note vouchers will not be activated. Tally will assume that goods are received along with Purchase Vouchers and Goods are delivered along with Sales Vouchers/Invoices. When Tracking Numbers are activated, you inform Tally that you may receive goods that are not accompanied by Supplier's invoice – the invoice will arrive separately. Also that you may not deliver goods together with your invoice – you may invoice later. Note: You are allowed, however, in a voucher, to select 'Not Applicable' when the Tracking Number sub-screen comes up. This would update inventory right away without the need to pass a separate inventory voucher. The vice-versa is also true. See Advanced voucher entry for more details. You can alter these vouchers to suit your company, as well as create new ones. For example, if you wish to distinguish between delivery notes for stock delivered from different locations, you can create vouchers to do this. The function of each voucher type is now explained.

Receipt Note Voucher For recording goods received. For example, the company receives new stock from a supplier. If a Purchase Order exists for that Supplier, selecting it will bring up the order particulars. Delivery Note Voucher For recording goods delivered to a customer. For example, the company delivers goods from stock to a customer. If a Sales Order exists for that customer, selecting the appropriate Sales Order will bring up the relevant particulars. Stock Journal Voucher For recording stock transfers from one location to another. For example, the company transfers items of stock from the warehouse to the shop. Physical Stock Voucher For recording actual stock as physically verified or counted. For example, stock found on conducting a stock-check. It is not unusual that the company finds a discrepancy between the actual stock and the computer stock figure. If you have configured your inventory vouchers to Ignore physical stock differences, these physical stock vouchers will really be for recording purposes only. However, if you have configured the vouchers not to ignore physical stock difference, then all transactions subsequent to the physical stock voucher will use the balance as mentioned in that voucher. 29

Tally Notes How to Create a Stock Journal? Gateway of Tally > Voucher Entry > [ALT]+F7 or Click on Stock Journal A stock journal is used to transfer materials or stock from one location to another location. Stocks could even simply be shown as consumed. Or even only produced without both consumption and production. Hence, it is not like other journal where debits and credits must match. You can specify quantities that are move as well as their rates and amounts. If standard rates have been entered in the stock item masters, they will appear. In the target location, you can specify additional costs incurred without actually affecting accounting at all. Only the stock value goes up. Hence, it is technically correct where an expense incurred on production or inward has been accounting for in the cost of that item. The Stock Journal Screen has three parts – the top part accepts general information, the left hand side is the Source location or Consumption Part and the right hand side is the Destination location or the Production Part. While you must furnish the common information required in the top part, you may elect to give information for only the left or the right part or both. How to Create a Purchase Order? Purchase Order details will also depend on configuration settings. Hence, have a look at the configuration and voucher types. Gateway of Tally > Voucher Entry > F9:Purchase > Select Purchase Order Party's A/c Name Give the supplier's name. Type in the same manner as voucher entry and select from list of Ledger Accounts. Use [alt]+[C] to create a new account. Order No The voucher number can be treated as your Purchase Order number. You may configure the voucher type through Acct. Info > Voucher Types to set prefixes and suffixes for Purchase Orders. This particular Order No. field is an additional field to record order number if different from the voucher number. Name of the Item Give the name of the stock item for which the order is to be placed. Once the name is given the Item Allocations sub-screen pops-up that needs to be filled in. Due on The due date for delivery of the item. This will enable monitoring of outstanding deliveries. The order can be split for delivery on different dates. Location In case multiple location feature is active, this field is required to be given, else it does not appear. Quantity, Rate and Amount 30

Tally Notes Give the quantity of the item required, and its rate. The amount is calculated but is modifiable to enable rounding off. Additional Cost Details Additional cost on the item may be incurred which can be mentioned here. Give by way of percentage of the item cost or a flat amount. If not, select End of List. Additional costs increase the value of the item and do not independently appear in the nominal ledger account or expense. Next Item The cursor then comes to the Item field once again and you can enter another item to order. If no other item is required, press [enter] on the blank field to take the cursor to the tax/expense field. Expense/Tax Once the item details have been entered, you might specify tax to be charged and other expenses like freight, if any. The tax or expense has to exist as a ledger account or it may be created using [alt]+[C]. We shall select tax @ 17.5% to be charged on the item values. The order entry screen would then appear thus: Narration Optional. You may give some particulars about the order. How to Create Sales Orders? Sales order entry is exactly like Purchase Orders. Sales Order details will also depend on configuration settings. Hence, have a look at the configuration and voucher types. Gateway of Tally > Voucher Entry > F8:Sales > Select Sales Order Party's A/c Name Give the customer's name. Type in the same manner as voucher entry and select from list of Ledger Accounts. Use [alt]+[C] to create a new account. Order No The voucher number can be treated as your internal serialised order number. The field Order No. is advised to be used for the customer's order number. Name of the Item Give the name of the stock item for which the order is to be placed. Once the name is given the Item Allocations sub-screen pops-up that needs to be filled in. Due on The due date for delivery of the item. This will enable monitoring of outstanding deliveries. 31

Quantity, Rate and Amount Give the quantity of the item required, and its rate. The amount is calculated but is modifiable to enable rounding off. Additional Cost Details There is no additional cost details for sales orders. They exist only for Purchases as the values are added to the cost price. In case of sales, additional cost need to be entered below the line along with tax. Next Item The cursor then comes to the Item field once again and you can enter another item to order. If no other item is required, press [enter] on the blank field to take the cursor to the tax/expense field. Expense/Tax Once the item details have been entered, you might specify tax to be charged and other expenses like freight, if any.
