So, far a great response to our first TDL program its time to go ahead.Before  you read this article, you must know how to configure TDL in tally otherwise you will not be able to use the TDL.

Once again I have to remind that TDL is domain specific language and its  Tally’s programming language which help you to customize your default tally reporting, menu etc. It is very easy to learn tally but you need to have great hands of practice to learn the same.

There is no book available in the market to learn this programming language!

Below is a programming code which will help to create a new field in your ledger Master  creation/alteration mode.

;; user who are interested can learn tally tdl,
;;UDF definition
[System: UDF]
MyUDF: String: 1000

;;Modify Ledger Master entry screen and add a line
[#Part: LEd Other Details]
Add: Line: MyLine

[Line: My Line]
Field: Short Prompt,My Field
Local: Field: Short Prompt: Set as: “City: ”

[Field: My Field]
Use: Short Name Field
Storage: MyUDF

;; End of code

In the above code what we have created is known as UDF (User Defined Functions)

The above code will create a new field namely CITY in your default ledger master

On the same way, you can create any other such UDF you wish so.

The screen shot is as below

Try to create such more UDF yourself. I am always there to help you in case of need.

  3. sir,
    if deemed sale is accountable under work contracts sale.
    there is two type of work contract one is done in state and other is outside.
    which % is applicable for both.
    and how to calculate the sale tax payable for the same. there is input on purchases but how we will calculate output payable after deductions of inputs.

        HI,
        i m bhavin shah . i m software developer can u pls let me how we can put Date Expression In TDL File so after we can fetch From tally…..

        Regards Bhavin

        1. Bhavin,
          TDL language is complete different. you need to know the perfect coding as the same code applies to different reports and different functions so, just by knowing one or two codes will not help you.
          kindly refer the free tdl codes available with the Educational version of Tally.erp 9

    1. Uma,
      Right now I am busy. but u can search it from mfgexcise.900 file from the default TDL file (Use Vat TIN No. for search)
      Further to above, you need to specify the code as : $STNNumber:Company:##SVCurrentCompany ohterwise it wont’ work
      Try with CST number $InterStateSTNumber:Company:##SVCurrentCompany and do let me know

    Dani Josemon

    1. Dani,
      It depends on the area of the part which you intend to modify. by this way no one can suggest because in Tally, many times part contains part!
      you can see all the part definition, name etc in Detaulf TDL software . Click to Navigate than jump to definition or just press Ctrl +j and Select part in definition type and you will get it

    The way by which you are giving training of TDL is very good.Any person having knowledge of tally can learn TDL

    1. kama punj says:

      Sir, in release 3 when we change the quantity manufacture in voucher alter after saving production voucher, tally is not changing components.
      say for manufacturing item a one we consume item B one pc. We enter production for 500 pcs tally consume 500 item B we save the voucher. After saving we come to know the actual production was 600. When we change the quantity from 500 to 600 tally is not changing the quantity of Item B as 600. It remain 500 and we have to manually change the quantity.

      we want TDL so it should change

      1. Kama punj,

        I am not sure what are you referring for ?
        Are you using the BOM ? if not than you should try for BOM
        and once you enter a consumption and payment vocuehr, you have to manually alter the qty if there is difference in product/consumption

    2. Kama punj,
      Thanks for your nice feedback

    1. Hello Pavan,

      The said article is only for a guideline nature it wasn’t full-fledged TDL code. like I haven’t defined the UDF there.

      A full fledged with complete source code along with explanations of every line and images is available at registered student section.

  25. Maulik shah says:

    Dear Sir,

    I want to learn only TDL. What is charge for it and what are timings is it flexible or some time being?

    1. Currently, the Course fees for the Tally TDL is Rs. 3999 and this is a one time course fees for the life time.
      There is no course timing. You can access your course anytime you wish so since it is a web base course.

  26. Maulik shah says:

    sir what is prospect of TDL.I live in ahmedabad. but here no one is more interested to implement changes in tally so what is scope for it?

    1. For the Scope, I am ready to pay you Rs. 2 lac if you can deliver me the customization within one one month as per my requirements.

      Tell me if you are ready to take it?
      In short you won’t get a free time to seat if you know the Tally TDL
