Business managers get a real boost from this new functionality built into Tally.ERP 9 Release 3.0. In fact, it's so powerful and all-encompassing that Banking is assigned its own New Section within the product.
Just what every business needs, the Bank allocation feature brings everyday bank- related chores right to your fingertips and eases transactions and processing.
Highlights:
Multiple instrument and Mode of Transaction details in single voucher The new Banking feature allows you to record and monitor multiple transactions in a single voucher. Also, while the old system only captured the dates of transactions, this feature allows the monitoring of transactions by Amount, Date, Instrument Number or modes (like NEFT, Cheque, DD, etc.), thereby conveying a more complete picture. The ability to identify payment modes in the system and separate dates for each instrument eases bank reconciliation.
Instrument-wise reconciliation Reconciliation can be done for each instrument rather than the entire voucher. The instrument details (number, date, etc.) are displayed for easier reconciliation.
In case of unseen transactions such as Bank charges, interest paid etc., these can be captured in a new voucher without discarding the BRS (Bank Reconciliation Statement) in progress. Further, existing vouchers can be altered in case of any discrepancy found during reconciliation.
Opening BRS The new Banking feature allows the manual recording or automatic carrying forward of the un- reconciled bank transactions from the current year to the subsequent year (as Opening BRS). These can then be reconciled in the subsequent year.
Cheque printing configuration with Preview Enhanced cheque printing configuration with print preview to reduce wastage. Further it has been simplified to copy measurements from previous configurations.
Multiple cheque printing/capture A separate "Cheque Printing" report (in the Banking section) has been introduced to enable multiple cheque printing with ease. Also, know if a cheque has been printed or not by a simple Yes or No against each cheque.
Also, since it is sometimes not possible to know which Amount/Favouring Name is going to be printed on which cheque leaf, cheque details can also be recorded after printing.
Payment advice printing A system-generated payment advice (covering letter for payments) can be printed for a single or multiple vouchers.
Deposit slips printing Deposit slips can be printed for a single or multiple cheques, further simplifying Banking transactions.
Benefits:
Saves time Reduces errors Simplifies banking Improves productivity Improves traceability

At this stage the buyer decides that he needs only 75 of these items instead of the original quantity of 100. Previously, the seller could not close this deal and the sales order would always be listed under 'Pending Sales Orders'. Pre Closure of Orders allows this particular sales order to be manually closed from the list of 'Pending Sales Orders' or from the Voucher, while showing the actual delivery and sale.
Advantages of Pre Closure of Orders include: Accurate Pending Order summaries Improved system performance as it does not have to calculate outstandings every time it is started up Closure of orders possible either from the Voucher or from Reports No Order adjustments Easier management of material Reduced labour and unnecessary handling Prevents losses from dead stock Easy to use Flexible
