Release Notes for Tally 9 Release 3.0 Beta

ashwin — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 15:57:21 +0000

Going further with the success of Tally 9 Release 2.0, this amazing major release of Tally will take the product flexibility, performance and volume handling capacity to greater heights. The underlying philosophy of Tally has been to give our customers the best of speed and the latest technology with improved functionalities. They have incorporated major changes in the data processing capabilities to improve the overall performance and are proud to say that we have kept up this promise once again with the latest release.

There are many features it is almost 76 Pages of release notes and I am going through it and will keep you updated. The “WOW” factor is what I expect from this release.

I will keep on posting my comments on this Tally 9 Rel 3 Beta in coming days so keep coming and keep watching for news here.

Major Enhancements:
Size and Performance changes

Automatic caching based on system memory

Earlier, report generation involving large amount of data was always impeded by the problem of high memory usage. In Release 3.0, a new feature has been introduced to overcome this hurdle. The application now uses an automatic caching based on the memory of the system it is running on. This results in the usage of lesser memory even with higher data volumes. Reports which were running out of memory or consuming large amount of virtual memory on a 2GB system, will now respond even on a 1GB system. This can be observed by generating a report say a day book containing 50,000 to 100,000 vouchers on a 512MB machine using the last major release as well as this release.

Faster Data Entry

The data entry speed has been considerably increased in scenarios where there are a large number of ‘Tracking numbers’ and ‘list of pending orders’. In other words, the time taken to make a single entry has been reduced due To the faster retrieval and display of tables for selection of tracking numbers and pending orders.

Application size reduction by three-fourth

A faster, powerful and a SMALLER Tally application! The application has been modified and restructured to drastically reduce its size. The “exe” file of the application has been approximately reduced to three-fourth the size when compared to earlier versions. To be more precise, it is reduced from 10.7 MB to 1.96 MB. This will result in faster installation, loading, and opening of the application, thereby enhancing the overall user experience.

Tally DATA SIZE Reduction

Tally data size has been reduced in this release. Tally 9 Release 3.0 will effectively reduce the data size up to 40%. This data size reduction will help in enhancing the overall performance of the application.

Concurrent access of a single company’s data in Tally 9 Silver

ashwin — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 12:17:41 +0000

Many businesses using two or more licenses of Tally 9 Silver (Rel.2.0) on their Local Area Network (LAN) would like to access a common data. This was not possible in the earlier versions of Tally 9 within a LAN. If one user was accessing the data of a company, then another user on the LAN would not be able to access the database of the same company. The database would be rendered inaccessible.

Tally 9 Silver (Rel.2.0) now comes with an enhanced feature, wherein more than one Tally 9 Silver license user can access the data of a single company concurrently on a LAN (within a single sub-net).

Scenario

Let us illustrate this with the help of a scenario. The company considered for this scenario is Universal Business Solutions, where we have the Chief Accountant Mr. Shrikanth and his deputy Mr. Kiran. Both of them are using Tally single user licenses on their systems and are connected on a LAN (within a single subnet). The Tally data folder is located on Mr. Shrikanth’s system. Mr. Shrikanth views certain reports, in this case the Balance Sheet for the year 2007-2008. Simultaneously Mr. Kiran is making a voucher entry into the same company whose data is on Mr. Shrikanth’s system,

At the Gateway of Tally press F1 to select a company. The following screen is displayed. The field Directory displays the default location of the folder Data. Select the company Universal Business Solutions from the drop down menu displaying a list of companies and press Enter. (Fig. 1)

Fig. 1

Then at the gateway of Tally, under Reports, click Balance Sheet and press

Alt+F1 to view a detailed report (Fig. 2).

Now this is the screen being viewed by Mr. Shrikanth.

Fig. 2

At the same time Mr. Kiran needs to access the same company Universal Business Solutions for making a voucher entry. At the Gateway of Tally press F1 to select a company. The following screen is displayed. The field Directory displays the default location of the folder Data. Navigate to this field using the backspace key and enter the path of the shared folder Data, located on Mr. Shrikanth’s system – \\shrikanth\Data. Then Select the company Universal Business Solutions from the drop down menu displaying a list of companies and press Enter. (Fig. 3)

Fig. 3

At the gateway of Tally, under Transactions, click Accounting Vouchers. By default, the Payment voucher screen is displayed. Press F-6 to select Receipt. Mr. Kiran views the following screen. He can execute all the functions of Tally as if he was working with Tally on his local system. (Fig. 4)

Fig. 4

Accessing Data on system 2

We will now walk through the steps on how to access data on another system. In the folders section of the Explorer window, open the folder Tally 9. Right click on the sub-folder Data and then select Sharing and Security. (Fig. 5)

Fig. 5

A screen with the folder properties is displayed. Check the option Share this Folder. By default the name of the shared folder is the active folder, which in this instance is the folder Data. Under the parameter User Limit, select the option Maximum Allowed. (Fig. 6)

Fig. 6

Once this is done, click on the tab Security. Under the list of Groups or User Names, select the required option and under Permissions – Allow, check all the options. This will facilitate the other users to carry out all functions for the shared folder. (Fig. 7)

Fig. 7

On completing click the tab Apply to enable all these changes to take effect and then click OK to exit from this window. The users on a LAN can now start using Tally and simultaneously access the data of a single company.

At the Gateway of Tally, click F1 to select a company. The following screen with

a list of companies is displayed (Fig.8).

Fig. 8

Use the backspace key to change the Directory. (Fig. 9)

Fig. 9

Type in the location of the shared folder Data as shown below. You can type in the system name where the shared Data folder is located. In this case the system name is “shrikanth” (Fig. 10)

Fig. 10

Alternatively, you can also define the location of the shared folder by typing in the

IP address of the system where it is located. (Fig. 11)

Fig. 11

If the company database has to be shared on a default basis, then the following changes have to be executed in the Tally.ini file. In the first instance the system name can be mentioned. (Fig.12)

Fig. 12

Alternatively, the system’s IP address can be mentioned as shown. (Fig. 13)

Fig. 13

Once the steps mentioned above are executed, Tally can be used in this LAN environment, wherein more than one user of Tally 9 Silver (Rel. 2.0) licenses can concurrently access the data of a single company. The important element is allowing access to the folder on the LAN.

Release Notes for Tally 9 Release 2.0

Tally 9 Release 2.0 unleashes the full power of the new engine built into it to give you superlative performance. The response time of the application can now be measured in seconds rather than minutes, even for high volume data. This percolates down to a tenfold increase in performance in several operations. It will improve the user experience with the application and will substantially increase productivity.

Major Enhancements:

Enhancements in overall performance

Tally 9 Release 2.0 is incorporated with several advanced features which bring about an overall improved performance of the application.

However, Tally 9 Release 2.0 is now made more flexible to accommodate such

changes.

By default, the date that appears in the As on field in the Excise Opening Stock

Release Notes for Tally 9 Release 1.1

admin — Fri, 16 Feb 2007 09:10:00 +0000

Major Enhancements
New Attributes in Tally.ini
Tally introduces three new attributes to the .ini file.

OptimizeNetwork
LoadBuffering
FlushFile

Optimize Network in Tally.ini
Setting OptimizeNetwork to No in Tally.ini reduces memory requirements and
prevents the system from going into a virtual memory mode although it slows down the generation of reports.
However, for users with a large volume of data, it is advised to use more than 500 MB of free memory and set OptimizeNetwork to Yes. This increases load speed dramatically and generates reports faster.
The settings can be changed in accordance with client memory available.

By default, Optimize Network in Tally.ini is set to No.

LoadBuffering in Tally.ini
Certain types of data (such as, a large number of Batches, Godowns and Tracking numbers) very quickly exhaust the available memory, when information is cached during loading. Set LoadBuffering in the Tally.ini to No, to reduce this buffering, although it will result in a marked increase in network traffic.

For a lower volume of data (such as, a large number of masters and stock items, but a smaller number of batches, Godowns and Tracking numbers), it is advised to set LoadBuffering to Yes

By default, LoadBuffering in Tally.ini is set to Yes.

FlushFile in Tally.ini
For both Single and Multi users of Tally, it is practical to set FlushFile to No to facilitate Faster acceptance of Masters and Vouchers as well as a marked improvement in accessing network data.
However, this could be risky in places with frequent power problems and without Power Backups. In which case, it is advised to continue with the Tally.ini default setting FlushFile to Yes

By default, FlushFile in Tally.ini is set to Yes.

Download Stat.900 Version 51
Download the new Stat.900 Version 51 from www.tallysolutions.com to use West Bengal and Chhattisgarh VAT Returns and TDS Enhancements in Tally 9 Release 1.1

FIFO Perpetual
Tally introduces a new method of inventory valuation FIFO Perpetual, which is similar to LIFO Perpetual. The Normal FIFO treats the opening balance of the financial year as the terminating rate to apply for residual stock. FIFO Perpetual takes all existing past data. Both LIFO and FIFO Perpetual are capable of changing the valuation when the company is split unlike their ‘Annual’ versions, which are consistent.

Abatement in Service Tax
Tally now offers you the flexibility of entering the desired percentage of abatement in service tax.

Sales Invoice Printing
You can now print any number of sales invoices, with the appropriate print title.

Option to Print Invoices as Excise or VAT Invoice

Calculation of Cess in an Excise Purchase entry

For eg: Total Purchases = Rs.10000
Discount = Rs. 2000
Assesable Value= Rs. 8000
Excise duty = Rs. 1280
Cess = Rs 26
