Select the Voucher required form the Button bar.

Prior to making a voucher entry, ensure that you are using the right voucher. You can change the voucher type by selecting the new type from the Button Bar. In some cases, like receipt notes (where you have opted for Use Rejection notes in F11: Features) you will see a pop-up screen from which you can select the appropriate voucher.

Voucher number

Voucher numbering by default is automatic. It can be entered manually by setting it in Voucher Types.

Reference number

This is optional. You can enter a reference such as Purchase Order Number or Supplier's Delivery Note Number.

Date of voucher

The date of the voucher you are entering is displayed at the top-right of the Voucher Creation screen. By default, this will be the Current Date. You can change the date to the transaction date.

Note: You can change the date using the F2: Date button on the Button Bar.

Ledger Account

There are no To/By or Dr/Cr in inventory vouchers.

To select a ledger, type the first letter of its name and Tally will display a List of Ledger Accounts. As you continue typing, the highlights reduce until a match is found. Here you usually need a supplier's ledger account.

Supplier's name and address

Enter details of the supplier's name and address. This can be different from the ledger name or can be the same. This information is useful when printing out the Goods Receipt Note.

Name of the Item

From the pop-up list of Stock Item, select the Stock Item that is being received. If it is not in the list, create it using ALT+C.
