In some cases, technical assistance or knowledge is required. Tally.ERP 9 Release 5.0 provides the convenience of selecting options from a single screen and complete the installation.

Simplified installation, with minimal options, upgrade, and migration. A lightweight installer that automatically downloads and installs required files. Provides option to check for product updates. POST-DATED CHEQUE MANAGEMENT A Post-Dated Cheque (PDC) is a Cheque that the recipient can encash on a future date. Such Cheques are not payable until the date written on the face of the Cheque. In the accounting books of both the issuer and the recipient, the transaction will not be recorded until the date provided on the Cheque. For businesses, the task of validating and keeping track of post-dated Cheques, both issued and received, is tedious and timeconsuming. 1
Tally.ERP 9 now facilitates smooth management of post-dated Cheques and the underlying transactions: You can mark an entry as post-dated, and specify the date on which the Cheque was received or issued. This allows you to keep track of how long you have before the Cheque will be presented. While recording entries for payments and receipts, you can opt to view the party s current balance, and the balance after including the post-dated Cheque. The Cheque will not have an effect on the books of accounts until its date of presentation equals Tally. ERP 9 s Date of Last Entry. Thus, you don t have to wait till the Cheque s presentation date to record the transactions. This saves the time and effort required to keep track of the Cheques and record entries for them at the right time. You can obtain a comprehensive summary of all transactions involving post-dated Cheques using the Post-dated Summary report. You can track post-dated Cheques from the Cheque Register. You can link the PDC to a generic bank ledger, and then manually select the required bank after the Cheque has been presented from the Post-dated Issued/Post-dated Received report. The transaction will not be regularised until you have linked it to a bank, though its date of presentation has been reached. You can opt to include post-dated transactions in MIS reports such as Cash Flow and Funds Flow Statements, and other reports such as Ledger Vouchers, Group Summary, Outstanding s reports, etc. And when you are checking the Day Book, you can view the post-dated transactions for the period by just clicking T: Post-dated Rep button available in the report. You can opt to view reports with actual values, or values that include post-dated Cheques, using the New Column option.
