1. Enabling Cheque Printing
   The Cheque Printing option (in F11: Accounting Features) is enabled by default for all the new Companies created in Release 3.0 (onwards). This is done to ensure that the customer is aware of this feature and he can use this effectively to print the Cheques neatly.

1. Multiple Cheques Printing

Tally.ERP 9 Release 3 with Job Working module Work In and Out

“Processes never break any system, it is the exception which does.”

Job Work In and Out feature is consciously designed to support business exception handling, each business house or each transaction of business house follow different processes based on the requirement.

A major concern for both, the businesses which outsources Job Work or receives Job Work, is to track material movement. What is the material that needs to be issued to the Job Worker? How much Quantity needs to be issued? How much material needs to be processed and sent back to the client? What is the cost of handling a Job and how much profit will a job worker get? Which Job

Worker is more cost effective? Will in-house production help to reduce costs or Job Work is a better option?

To answer all the above questions, Tally.ERP.9 now provides a new Job Work Module.

Tally.ERP 9 is introducing the following new features with Job Work:

a. Four new Voucher Types to handle Job Work Material Movement

• Job Work out Order
  

This Voucher will allow a principal company to raise Job Orders on Job Worker. This voucher has a combined behaviour of Purchase Order and Sales Order as it will allow the user to raise an order for Material to be received post Job Process and, also with the option to define BoM at the transaction level, it will also provide the flexibility to capture information on material expected to be dispatched to the Job Worker.

• Job Work in Order
  

This Voucher will allow the Job Worker to raise receipt of Job Order from Principal Company. This Voucher has a combined behaviour of Sales Order and Purchase Order as it will allow the user to raise an order for Material to be dispatched post Job Process and, also with the option to define BoM at the transaction level, it will also will give flexibility to capture information on material expected to be received from the Principal Company.

Before introducing the other two Voucher Types, let’s consider the following scenarios:

Scenario 1: The Business wants to deliver goods to a Job Worker, however the ownership of goods is still with the Business and therefore they want the stocks to be shown in their Stock reports (Godown) and affect the Stock Valuation, till the time it is actually consumed by the Job Worker, in addition to this, it should give them a record of such Stocks held by the Job Worker.

Scenario 2: Job Worker has received the goods from his Client, however the ownership of goods is not with the Job Worker and therefore he does not want these stocks to be shown in his Stock Summary nor it should affect his Stock Valuation. However Job Worker should be able to view a report which can provide the information related to each party’s stock lying with him.

There were three problems to be solved:

• Stock Transfer without transfer of ownership of stock
  
• Stock Valuation
  
• Updated information about the actual stock availability
  

• Material Out*
  

  Allows the user to record Raw Material issued to Job Worker or record Finished Goods dispatched to Principal Company, without actually affecting the Stock Valuation, i.e. using the Godown transfers (with the help of External Godown feature introduced in Release 3.0). The new feature allows both the parties to use the same Voucher Type. In case the principal company has enabled Excise feature, Tally.ERP 9 will also allow printing of Annexure II (Job Work Challan (Material Delivery Document)).
  

• Material In*
  

  Allows the user to record Raw Material receipt from Principal Company or record receipt of finished goods from Job Worker, without actually affecting the Stock Valuation using the Godown transfers (with the help of External Godown feature introduced in Release 3.0). The new feature allows both the parties to use the same Voucher Type.
  

  *We are building few more capabilities which you will get to see in subsequent builds, i.e. tracking Billable material and Raw Material consumption, which makes these two vouchers a completely unique set of vouchers having all capabilities.
  

b. Job Work Reports

• Order Outstanding (In/Out): To keep a track of finished/semi- finished goods order outstanding information
  
• Component Issues/ Receipt Outstanding: To keep a track of Components promised to be delivered/ issued in Job Order but not received/ dispatched
  
• Issues with Variance: Components/ Finished/ Semi Finished Goods issued with variance from what was Ordered
  
• Receipt with Variance: Components/ Finished/ Semi Finished Goods received with variance from what was Ordered
  
• Material Movement registers (Annexure IV and Annexure V for Excise): Track of Components Issued/ Received and Finished received/ dispatched information is captured here, in case Excise for Manufacturer is enabled then this report will be displayed as Annexure IV and V.
  
• Ageing Analysis for Stock at Job Worker Location: Principal can view the age of stock lying with Job Worker or and Job Worker can view Client’s stock lying with him
  
• Stock with Job Worker or of Client: This report will display the information of summary of our components with Job Worker or Clients component with us
  

Tally.ERP 9 Release 3 now supports Income Tax for Salaries – Simplifies IT for both Employer and Employees

Tally.ERP.9 now provides a complete solution for Personal Income Tax calculation. The new Income Tax feature handles Tax calculation on the basis of Payroll/Expense transactions and declarations made by the employees, in a very simple manner.

2.4 TDL Enhancements

Invoking Actions on Event Occurrence-System & Printing Events Introduced

• Prior to this release the Events Form Accept and Focus were introduced. In this Release there has been major enhancements in the Event Framework as a whole. Under this framework specified Actions can be triggered on the occurrence of a particular Events. The Events are implicit which can be classified broadly into System Events and Object Specific Events. The System Events introduced are System Start/End and Company Load/Close. Object Specific Events introduced are Before/After Print.

Collection Enhancements

1. Using External PlugIns as a Data Source for Collections

• Tally now provides a TDL interface to obtain datasets in Collection from external Plug-Ins.

These Plug-Ins are written as DLL’s which can be used to fetch external data (ie either from Internet or from external Database etc). These DLL’s should return a valid XML which can be easily mapped into TDL Collection. In other words, TDL program can provide simple string value and/or XML to the DLL function. The DLL gives XML data as an output. Collection takes this data and converts into objects and object methods which can be accessed in TDL like other objects.

DLL collection will be very useful in the following scenarios:

1. Display stock quotes from the internet

2. Get data from different formats like CSV, HTML

3. External device interfaces

4. Weighing scale interface

5. RFID Barcode scanner

6. Petrol Pump device interface

7. Foot fall count

8. External application interfaces

9. GAS distributor application

10. To get attendance details in Pay Roll through swipe

Etc Etc ..

2. Dynamic Table Support using Unique Attribute

• The Unique attribute of Collection definition is used to control the display of unique values in

the table for a specified method based on values selected from the table previously in a field. The display of values is changed dynamically based on the field value. The unique attribute has been enhanced to add a new sub attribute in the syntax which is used to specify another field object method which also participates in controlling the uniqueness of values in the table.

3. Using Variable as a Data Source for Collections

• The collection attribute Data Source is enhanced to support ‘Variable’ as data source. Now

variable values can be gathered as objects to the collection. When the Data Source is a Compound variable with multiple levels, the same is available in Collection as a complete object hierarchy.

Evaluating expressions by Changing the Object Context- $$ReqOwner Introduced

• Any expression in TDL is evaluated in context of Interface and Data Object existing at that instance. There are many context changing functions available in the platform. They change either the Interface Object context or Data Object context. In order to change a particular object context, functions like $$Owner, $ReqObj etc are used. In this release a new function called “ReqOwner” is introduced which is used to change the Interface(Requestor) Object context one level up the chain.

Variable Framework with Compound Variables Introduced

• Variables are context free light weight data structures which can store values. They assume

an initial value at instantiation and can change during the program execution. The variable framework has been completely revamped to support Compound Variables. Prior to this release we came up with list variables where it was possible to store multiple values of the same datatype within a list. With the introduction of Compound Variables now it will be possible to store multiple values of different datatypes within the same structure. Each member of a compound Variable can either be a simple variable, a list variable or another compound variable. The nesting can extend upto any level. Compound variables are very useful in all cases where it is needed to store and manipulate multiple variables of different type as a unit.

Third Party Applications Using Tally Licensing Mechanism

• Third Party Applications can validate the Request Response Interaction with Tally using robust

License Mechanism built in Tally with various approaches. The below approaches can be used

by the Third Party Applications to retrieve & validate the License Information from Tally based on the level of Security desired.

License Info Retrieval using Open XML

The Third Party Applications will be able to send an XML Request to call platform function within Tally which is used to retrieve the required License Info from Tally. This is a less secured option as the license data will be available over an Open XML.

License Info Retrieval using Encoding Procedure built in a TCP

The Third Party Application will send a Validation String within the XML Request. At Tally’s

End, the validation string and the required License Info will be encoded using the procedures

(Non Standard) built inside the TDL. The converted Strings will be sent back within the XML Response to the Third Party Applications which will decode the strings at their end.

License Info Retrieval using Encryption Functions provided within Tally

The Third Party Application will send a Validation String within the XML Request. At Tally’s

End, the validation string and the required License Info will be encrypted using the function

$$EncryptStr provided within the platform. The encrypted Strings will be sent back within the XML response to the Third Party Application. The Third Party Application will be able to decrypt the Strings at their end using the standard DLL shipped by us for Decryption.

License Info Retrieval using Encryption Algorithms built using Third Party DLL’s

The Third Party Application will send a Validation String within the XML Request. At Tally’s End, the validation string and the required License Info will be encrypted using an External DLL which can have its own Encryption Routines. Tally uses the Function CallDllFunction to return the encrypted strings to Third party Application within XML Response. At Third Party Application End, decryption algorithms will be required which can again be provided inside the same DLL used for encryption.

(make sure that in company Features F11- Inventory menu, allow invoicing is set to yes)

Here we can set default ledgers for purchase & sale of the selected item

Example:

 

in The Voucher Class (if any)

Voucher class is the definition of structure to make the entries.

E.g. if we are defining the voucher class for Sales, that will simplify the calculations mode for sales entries as predefined in the class.

 

Person making the classes should have thorough understanding of the structure to be defined & its accounting implications

 

• Gateway of Tally -> Accounts Info -> Voucher Type – >Alter ->Sales
  

 

 

From above we are making class of “Tax Invoice” (We can make as number of classes as we can). It should be understood that classes should be defined for the fixed structure entries only. (e.g. Sales)

 

 

• Exclude the Groups
  

We can customized our selection by excluding certain groups that means ledgers under the selected group will not be prompt at the time of entering the voucher (in our example sales)

 

• Include the Groups
  

As explained, we can include the groups.

 

• Default Accounting Allocations for Items
  

Here we can define the allocation i.e. ledger to be selected for the stock item

e.g. for Sales we can select sales 12.5%

    

• VAT Class
  

The default class for Sales Ledger e.g. Sales 12.5%

 

• Percentage
  

If there is certain percentage of allocation to single item, we can define that here only.

This is helpful for the clients who are used to bill at the inclusive rates.

E.g. if any organization is selling its items having 12.5% rate & normally bills at inclusive rates, can set allocation percentage as

    Sales Ledger 12.5%    -> 88.88%

    Output VAT 12.5%    -> 11.12%

    

• Override using item defaults
  

As explained in the above topic of Stock Item Settings, Tally has given feature to make default allocations of Items e.g. after selecting a particular item at purchase or sales voucher default accounting allocation will be done as per the settings in masters.

 

This is also very helpful feature of tally, because we need not have to think of accounting allocations at the time of entry (generally when stock items are more or sales entries are done by operators etc. this feature is very helpful)

If we set the option as YES then tally will make accounting allocation as defined for the stock item.

 

e.g. though we are setting sales for sales 12.5% in the above screen as accounting allocations, but if we are having item of 4% & default allocation is set for the stock item, by setting Override item Defaults as Yes , Accounting will be done as Sales 4% only (and not as Sales 12.5%)

 

• Ledger Names
  

In this screen we have to define the ledgers to be selected at the time of entering the sales vouchers & the calculation thereof.

E.g. VAT Ledgers, Excise Ledgers, Packing Charges, Transportation, Rounding off, etc.

After selecting the ledger Tally.ERP9 will prompt for calculation type

    

 

Then we will have to select rounding up method & whether to show zero values or not.

 

At the time of making the entries the screen for sales voucher after selecting appropriate class will be as shown below

 

 

After entering the values of Items Selected, Quantity, Rate etc. cursor will not move to the filed for which we have set the calculation methods in the class definition.

 

 

If we are having any customizations regarding the Sales, Purchases, Debit Notes, Credit Notes, etc. and after making the above changes documents are not printed / working as in the required formats means we will have to make some changes in the customized module. In such cases please contact Winjit Technologies Pvt Ltd on tally@winjit.com or 91-253-6633999

 

As the VAT rate changes are w.e.f. 01.04.2010, if needs (generally if we are not going to pass to many entries up to 31.03.2010), we can split the existing company & make the suitable change as explained in above topics.

 

For splitting company please refer to our document on “Year End Procedures”
