Business is all about managing men, material and resources. and to manage its aim in business a good communication is an essential part. TDL help you in establishing such good and personalised communication. Think in your organisation if you send an automated Birthdate greeting to your clients/suppliers/employees. They will feel happy for you. So how can we do this through TDL?

First step to do this goal, we need a special field in our ledger master which stores Date of Birth of 3rd parties. Let’s see how can we create this field with a little line of coding in Tally.ERP 9.

In Tally it is known as UDF (User Defined Field) because a programmer here define a field himself.

 

In this chapter we will deal only with creating a UDF in the ledger Master.

This example illustrates how you can create a UDF in ledger master

First Let’s see a typical ledger master Screen.

I have created a new company and will be creating a new ledger

UDF in Tally TDL
www.tallynine.com

The ledger master creation screen looks like this

Now, This Ledger Master has several parts I will explain what is Parts in Tally TDL

At this moment, you just note that in TDL there are various parts

Now, I need to find out where to Add a new line and new field ? Once I find the concerned part to modify then only I can  add a new UDF or to amend that part.

We will look how to find out a part in an another chapter.

At this moment, I want to show you that Let me add a new field below the Website as you can see in the attached screen shot

We will add a new line and a new filed to that.

Here is the code, I will write in my Tally Developer Network

#Led Contact ]

Add :Lines : Ledger DOB

[Line : Ledger DOB]

Fields : Medium prompt, Led DOB

Local : Field : Medium Prompt : Set as : “ Date of Birth :”

[Field : Ledger DOB]

Use : Uni Date Field

Storage : BirthDate

[System : UDF]

BirthDate : Date : 70001

Now, Save the file in Tally.ERP 9 and run your Tally after refreshing it.

I have completed  this TDL in my TDL developer and saved it with the file name DOB.Txt

Here is the screen shot of my Tally Developer with this code

Now, if you run this TDL in The Tally.ERP 9, you will face an error and your Tally.ERP 9 will stop working and will exit! Why?

Because a bug in coding in programming language cause an application to run. So, to cure this bug, let’s come back to our Tally Developer

See the screen shot above you can see the red colour in the left side which is suggesting there is something wrong

This is benefit of using Tally Developer Software to code because it will highlight such errors by different colour. Also it will give you different color for syntax, definition etc and it is very comfortable to use the Developer Environment Software to prepare your Tally TDL

Now, looking at the code, I found that I missed to put the opening [ (Square bracket ) and field definition which I want to amend in the first like. So, the mistakes seems to be in line one only and I will amend the first line as below :

[#Part : Led Contact ]

Now,let’s test this code in the Tally.ERP 9. Don’t worry I will explain you the code line by line.

Caution : Write your Tally TDL code only in notepad or in the Tally Developer Network

If you write this code in MS Office or any other application then it may not work properly

Even if you write this codes in MS office or other than Notepad and then copy paste them in Notepad or in Tally Developer Notepad, it will not work. So write only either in Notepad or in Tally TDL

 

The Final code will look like this :

 

[#Part: LedContact]

Add : Line: Ledger DOB

[Line : Ledger DOB ]
Field : Medium Prompt, LED DOB
Local : Field : Medium Prompt : Set as: “Date of Birth”

[Field : LED DOB]
Use: Uni Date Field
Storage : BirthDate

[System : UDF]
BirthDate : Date : 10001

UDF in Tally
Tally Mentors

 

In Next chapter we will go through line by line of this code how did it worked and what each line and code suggests

 

Here is your assignment to follow for this chapter

01 ) Add a new field which ask for Party Facebook Profile in the party ledger Master

02) It should store the Facebook profile permanently

 

In next chapter, we will look more deeply to this codes!

    1. Hello Abhishek,

      There are 6 types of UDF
      String
      Number
      Quantity
      Logical
      Date
      Percentage

      You had set up a wrong UDF type by assigning it as name field

      Write it this way

      [System : UDF]
      newfacebookprofile : String : 10010

      1. One more thing you can group the UDF in one single definition like :
        [System : UDF]
        newfacebookprofile : String : 10010
        Birth Date : Date : 10001

      Check the sundry debtors or Sundry Creditors ledger in the alter mode.
      Enable the contact details in the F12 ledger master and let me know.

  4. NILESH TAJANE says:

    Yes This Code Working In Ledger Alteration Mode

    But What Should I Do To Show This Field In Ledger Creation Mode?

    1. that is available in the ledger create/display and alter mode. you just need to have the ledger contacts enable option set to yes. and this code works only for the sundry debtors/creditors where the ledger contact options works

    2. If you face any problem then upload the screenshot to the DropBox and explain me what is not working so that I can look up the same

    1. Dear Sudhir,

      I alreadya checked your file 004. Dob.txt in the dropbox folder and it is working fine without any issue. and dob is showing perfectly and saving data also in the sundry debtors/sundry creditor’s Master ledger

      Still if you face any issue. Please give me remote access of your system. I will check it through team viewer.

      I sent you message also at the zopim chat but you didn’t responded

  8. I just found the error, i was using LnDob and FldDob, which seems to be already present in tally default definitions, So by Changing these to LnMyDob and FldMyDob, My program is working fine now.

      Sir how come we know that it is ledcontact and it is part of part..

  9. Sorry for not responding then, i was away from my machine and by the time i got back, found you offline at zopim chat.
    anyway thanks for making tdl learning that easy, everything is working perfect so far.

      I suggest you save your code in the Dropbox.
      The Dropbox folder was shared with you at the time of joining the course. However, if you didn’t accepted the invitation that time, Then I will re share the same with you.

      I checked your code there is issue with the udf.
      in the field, field fb the storage name is FBProfile however at the udf level you gave the name as FB so it won’t store the value for the name

      When the code doesn’t work, you need to watch/review the chapter carefully. You will notice some small errors in your code.
      Here in the field led fb you set it to use Uni Name field. Now there is no such field in the TDL nor in our chapter.
      remove the width and set the field as name field only and then let me know.

    2. I observed your are messing your codes.
      Please delete all codes related to fb profile and first write only one code e.g. the DOB
      because it seems your codes are messed totally. So remove everything related to fb profile.

    Thanks

    1. Hello Sahil,

      When your code doesn’t work, you need to review the course chapter carefully and also you need to read your own code again and again.

      When we are not able to store data in TDL that means our storage name and UDF definitions are not matching
      In your field you added the storage as Facebook profile address but again in system udf you defined it as
      Facebook Profile
      So, how it will work?

      In future please read the course chapter carefully and your own code too again and again!

    sir, i want to now [system: UDF] and string (why we use string only in 6 UDF and what is THIS “10010”

    1. Where it is mentioned that string used only in 6 UDF?

      String is just a data type. In coding we need to store data according to the data type so first we need to specify the data type
      Data types are string, Number, Logical,Date etc
      String means text which will store the value only which are text like abcde etc. It can store both numberic and number type data while numberic stores only numbers it can’t store date or text values.
      10010 is the index number and I think it is explained in the chapters too.

      We need to mention a memory location to store the user input data at a specified location.
      you can use any index number like 99, 601 whatever you want. certain Index number are reserved by the TSPL for its own purpose which we can’t use apart from that we can use whatever we want.

      1. Suman Sawant says:

        hello Mahendra sir,

        How to understand which index numbers are especially reserved by TSPL and must not be used by us? Is there any way to know that so that we could feel free to define the set index numbers only.

        Thanks!

    1. Hello Ajit,
      I don’t see any issue with your code.
      Also I am unable to understand the exact issue.
      Are you telling that you are unable to save the DOB?
      or you unable to input the DOB?
      In the educational version of Tally, you can input date only 1.1 or 31.1
      Try that way
      and if you are able to input the date but the same is not saving then please contact me over Zopim Chat.

  33. Ajit Kotagi says:

    Sorry Sir,
    I just missed : after field. The problem was it does not shows date of birth text below web page and does not wait for user entry.

    Ok. Sir Now I will move to next chapter.

    Thanks & Regards
    Ajit Kotagi

    1. change both to 99 and 101
      Birthdate : Date : 99
      Fbprofile : String : 101

      you can use from 99 to 999 which are more than enough
      also you had not added storage fb profile to your field
      you need to add storage

    Mahendrabhai, I have saved the aboveTDL. However it is not showing either in Creation of Ledger or Alteration of Ledger. As I am doing after a long time, I have started from the first Module. Please let me know where i am going wrong. (In Set as: “Date of Birth” it is showing RED UNDERLINE in TDL Developer)

    1. When the code doesn’t work, one needs to read his codes for severals times.
      did you compared the codes each and words including :, ; with the chapter?
      did you write it exactly as per the chapter
      If you read and compare your codes carefully, you would noticed that you used Local: Field: Medium Prompt, Set as:”Date of Birth”
      Instead of Local: Field: Medium Prompt : Set as:”Date of Birth”

      Tha’ts why I always tell people that to learn coding one needs a very good reading and writing habits

    Is it the size of the BirthDate field?

    1. Prashant Agrawal says:

      Sir,
      Ok, I got that 10001 is an index number. Sir, now how to prevent duplicate index numbers for another UDF in another txt file?

      1. No need to worry as the index number works per file and not the software wide.

        You can prepare two tdl file with same index number for two different storage and then test it to see if it is creating any issue.
