Company creation in Tally is the first step to start working with Tally.erp 9.So, today we will go through company Creation in Tally.ERP 9
company creation in Tally | How to go ahead
Once the software is downloaded, start the Tally.erp 9, and the below screen will appear. It will prompt to create a company, if there is no company created or loaded and so, the Select option is disabled automatically. Now just read the full articles here for company creation in Tally.
Now hit Create company button and you will find below screen
company creation in Tally | First step to do?
Type the legal name of the company and its mailing address.
Note : You may alter name and address at any time latter on you wish so.
After the address, select your county.Then select Stat
If your office location is in Mumbai from where you have to prepare books of account,and your business unit is in Delhi,then you have to select your state as Delhi and not Maharashtra.
Now you have to select method of accounts i.e. Accounts only or Accounts with inventory
If you select accounts only then you will not be able to keep the record of inventory.
Further, you have to select period of the accounting year.
Accounting year is a period for which books of accounts are being managed.
The Calendar year is the year starting from 1st January of any year and ends on 31st December of the same year.
The Financial year is a year which starts on 1st April of a calendar year and ends on 31st March of the subsequent calendar year.
A company has to comply with the provisions of the companies act in case of newly formed company.
So any case the financial year from should be the 1st April of the calendar year for which you want to start books of the account regardless to the fact when the business was started.
The second selection is starting date of books of account. This is the date of starting your books of account. but be careful while selecting this date.
If you were maintaining your books of account on manual and from 1st April 2009, you have decided to write books in tally then your financial year as well, as books beginning will start from 1st April 2009.
for running the business you can not choose any other date then the 1st April of the calendar year.
so, books begin date must be 1st April of the financial year for all business except those which start during the middle of a financial year.
Let’s say your business starts on 1st July 2009, then the Financial year will be 1st April 2009 and books begin from will be 1st July 2009

In a computerised accounting system like, there is no way to post ledger entries in any way. One need to post only voucher entry and ledger prepared by the accounting software tally.erp 9 itself.
For voucher entry rules, please browse category of basic rules of accountings

Dear Akash,
After creating the company, you need to create some ledger account. Then start posting vouchers in the payment voucher type.just debit the expenses and credit the cash/bank account.
Tally.erp 9 requires only practice and excercise
Dear Mahendra,

Dear Mahendra,
Do u have some exercise for learning Tally. If u have then please send to me at gargakash2984@gmail.com
Thank You Very Much
THanks & Regards
Akash Garg
Sorry Aakash,
I don’t have any such things ready made available.
Also accounting is something that you can learn and do only based on actual bills/documents.
Examples are based on a copy of bills/vouchers and I can’t create so many bills/vouchers.
My students who work actually with different organisation they send me scan copy of their bills/vouchers and by that way, I guide them how to make entries.
That is the only way to learn accounts.
Daily I receive such 10-15 requests from my readers to send them materials on their mail ID which Generally I don’t reply.This is first time I am replying on such request.
Dear sir,
thank you very much for guiding.
thanks
james
Dear Mahndra,

dEAR mahendra :
I m using tally in first time before using this software i was using oracle financial ,but tally is so sample as compare to oracle.But here i also face some dificulties.I m working with matche manufacturing company & electornic compay in Congo.we r using tally soft ware but we r also facing problem in inventory.the inventory portion is more confusing .i want to find the cost of good sold through inventory outflow .but in inventory outflow report tallyy also included all transfer which we transfer internally.
Hi Nawaz,
Glad to know that you are using Tally.erp 9.
You surely can overcome this problem. Create a new Voucher e.g. “Internal Stock Transfer ” type under Stock journal and use this voucher type while recording the internal stock transfer. Than move all your internal stock transfer entries to this voucher type.
Once you finish this go to Stock records use Filter option e.g. Alt +F12 and select the criteria as per your requirement. you will get the desired result for sure
Dear mahenra i have an confusion.
suppose i purchase 2-3 items like pant and steel. when i purchase steel or paint my inventory update. But I sale the steel after paint called “painted steel”. But I have no inventory in painted steel
so how i make sales entry.
After sales entry i have nothing to sale But my paint and steel inventory is full.And Painted steel inventory is going in minus because i purchase no painted steel but sell only painted steel.
How I adjust all the thing?
Thanks and Regards
Akash Garg
Dear Akash,
You need to pass manufacturing journal for production of painted steel material.
In that just use painted steel as destination production while paint and steel material will be entered under consumption (source material)
Please go through the article i have published in this regard. IF you are not able to locate the same, then I will send you the link for the same by evening today.
Akash Gargjee,
You should enter the painted steel entry through stock journal or mfg. journal firstly so that painted steel qty. enter in your inventory then you enter sale invoice.
H.M.Rawat
Dear Mahendra,
PLease send me the link of that article.
Thanks and regards
Akash Garg
Akash,
At the moment, I have been busy. but can give you a quick reference.
Just go to main menu of tally.erp 9 then select inventory vouchers. it will show you transfer of materials voucher types
there you will find two side (Left) for source/consuption
Here select the material which is consumed e.g. one by one paint , steel etc. then fill up the qty. leave rate field blank
after that on right side you will destination/production entries. here just select item painted steel and fill the qty you have produced.
please note that to use this feature inventory must be enabled in your company. otherwise you will not be able to use the same.
I will write a detailed article on this matter in coming days.

Dear Mahendra
I am a small business owner using tally
I am facing problem with sundry debtor and creditor
the problem is some times the debtor becomes creditor and visa versa
its because at time my clients pay me advance before buying goods and some times i sell on credit to the same client. What is the right way to handle this problem
I would also like to have a complete tutorial of help by you on Tally ERP 9 if you have, because learning short short articles is difficult.
Kind Regards
Kagazwala
Kagazwalaji,
You have to enable reference (bill wise details) for suppliers and your clients. Then all entries should be done through reference number (advance, new ref/on account or against ) When we sell/purchase goods with same client then it is normal that there may be debit or credit balance however in this case as suggested above, will help you to get a correct position.
Be assure there is no complete tutorial available in this world for any accounting software since accounting is generally affect by the laws and laws are ever changing so material prepared on today will become irrelevant tomorrow in view of such changes. So, you have no option except to learn short short articles
Mahendra ji
But how to define my client
as Sundry Debtor OR sundry Creditor
Best Wishes
kagazwala
Kagazwalaji,
I also face the same problem that is we frequently receive advances from the our clients. but let me share with you how I handle this issue. A debtors is always shown under Sundry debtors group to whom we sale goods now when we receive advances from then the its mess entire balance sheet that is current assets in balance sheet show under the capial and liabilities side. This is basically very true and there is nothing wrong. But I don’t like this kind balance sheet. So, I use a small trick. I created a new sub group ” Advances from Customers” under the Sundry Debtors/Current liabilities so whenever I have to prepare a balance sheet I just change the group of all such debtors from whom we receive advances to Advance from Customers Group and after that I again change it to default position.
Mahindra ji
ek or samasya 7.2 sey 9 ka migration

Kagazwala
Kagazwalaji,
You will be require an expert who can handle it.
You can send me the data back up, I will migrate to and then will send you back.
However I am using the Tally.erp 9 while you are using tally 9 so you might be require to re write that data and the process should not be interupted.

First of all, you need to learn some basic of accountancy. Without knowing the basic, no one can learn any accounting software unless they are working under some experienced persons. So, if you want to learn it on your own, please read as much as possible various articles published in the blog. then create some ledgers,groups etc. Then post some examples vouchers in different ways.In case you face any trouble, give it a voice and I will clear your doubt.
I do not know if any other way is available for self learning
