with some lead time to settle every bill. All your receivables - with or without bill-wise details - can
be viewed using the outstanding reports in Tally.ERP 9.

voucher number appears as the bill reference. This bill starts appearing in the outstanding
reports of the party.

Manage Credit Period

Based on your business requirements and customer relationship, you may need to provide different
credit period to different parties. In Tally.ERP 9 you can enter the required credit period for each
customer in the party ledger, and change it, if needed, while recording the transaction.

When the party master is enabled to Maintain balances bill-by-bill , the following options appear
in the party master:
a. Default credit period - Set the credit days. The credit period may be given for Sundry
Debtors and Sundry Creditors. The number of credit days or period can be defined in
various ways:
Suffix Example

Days None 5 is considered as 5 days.

5 W is considered as 5
Weeks W
weeks.

5 M is considered as 5
Months M
months.

Year Y 5 Y is considered as 5 years.

While recording transactions, the credit period will appear in the Bill-wise Details screen
as Due Date or Credit Days . You can change the details as needed.

b. Check for credit days during voucher entry – Set it to Yes to get warned about
exceeding credit period or pending outstanding bills for a party during transactions. The
warning message appears as shown below:
Once you set the terms of credit in party ledger, the same gets applied in transactions.

Manage Credit Limit

You can specify the credit limit allowed for each debtor in the respective ledger. You can pass sales
transactions only within the credit limit. However, transactions like sales order, which do not affect
your book of accounts can be passed. Tally.ERP 9 also gives you the option to consider posted-dated
sales and receipts transactions to arrive at the credit limit utilisation.

Check on exceeding credit limit

While recording transactions, you may want to know if the credit limit has been exceeded. In such
cases, in Tally.ERP 9, an error message appears with the credit limit defined for the party while
saving the transaction. It also shows the amount that has been exceeded.
You can:
● Enter a lower value (within the prescribed credit limit) to complete the entry, or
● Enable the option Override credit limit using post-dated transactions in the party
ledger.

You can use this information to have better control over the outstandings while recording sales
transactions.

Override credit limit using post-dated transactions

Post-dated transactions are non-accounting transactions. They get converted to accounting
transactions on the voucher date. The credit limit will not be considered until the transaction is
converted from post-dated to regular voucher. However, you may want the post-dated receipt
transaction to be considered when the customer has exceeded the credit limit. You can do this in
Tally.ERP 9 by enabling the option Override credit limit using post-dated transactions in the
party ledger.

will not appear.
 c. Accept the invoice. As always, you can press Ctrl+A to save.
Using the procedure explained above, you can consider the value of post-dated receipt voucher
when the party has exceeded the credit limit.

Round Off Invoice and Ledger Values

When you record an invoice, the total invoice value will not be rounded off automatically. To round
off the value of the invoice or the value of tax ledger in the invoice, you can use the round off
feature in Tally.ERP 9.

In this section
● Invoice Round Off - Using predefined ledger
● Invoice Round Off - Using Voucher Class
● Round off the ledger value in the invoice

Invoice Round Off - Using predefined ledger

When you record an invoice, you may want to maintain a ledger exclusively to round off the invoice

You can use this procedure to round off the invoice value.

Invoice Round Off - Using Voucher Class

You may want the round off ledger to automatically appear in the invoice, to avoid selecting it every
time you record transaction. For this, you can create voucher class in Tally.ERP 9 with the round off
ledger, and use this voucher class to automatically display the round off ledger in the invoice.
1. Create a voucher class for sales.
a. Gateway of Tally > Account Info. > Voucher Types > Alter > Sales .
b. Enter a name for the voucher class under Name of Class .
c. Press Enter to view the Voucher Type Class screen.

f. In Rounding method , select the appropriate rounding method.
o Not Applicable - Keep the invoice value as is.
o Downward Rounding - Round off the invoice value to the nearest lower number that is
a multiple of the rounding limit specified.
o Normal Rounding - Round off the invoice value to the:
o Nearest lower number that is a multiple of the rounding limit specified if the
decimal value is less than 0.5 , or
o Nearest higher number that is a multiple of the rounding limit specified if the
decimal value is more than or equal to 0.5 .
o Upward Rounding - Round off the invoice value to the nearest higher number that is a
multiple of the rounding limit specified.
g. For Rounding Limit , enter the number to calculate the nearest number as a multiple of
this number to round off. For example, if you mention 5, the invoice value will be rounded
off to the nearest number that is a multiple of 5.
 h. Remove if Zero - Set it to Yes to remove the ledger from the invoice if the ledger value is
zero.

i. Accept the screen and the sales voucher type. As always, you can press Ctrl+A to save.
2. Use the voucher class in sales invoice.
a. Gateway of Tally > Accounting Vouchers > F8 (Sales) > select the voucher class. The
round off ledger appears automatically.
b. Enter the sales details.

c. Accept the invoice. As always, you can press Ctrl+A to save.

You can use this procedure to use voucher class, to round off the invoice value.
Round Off only the ledger value
When you record an invoice, you may want to round off the value of the tax ledger. For this you can
use the round off feature in Tally.ERP 9.
1. Alter the ledger created under Duties & Taxes .
a. In Rounding method , select the appropriate rounding method.
o Not Applicable - Keep the invoice value as is.
o Downward Rounding - Round off the invoice value to the nearest lower number that is
a multiple of the rounding limit specified.

o Nearest higher number that is a multiple of the rounding limit specified if the
decimal value is more than or equal to 0.5 .
o Upward Rounding - Round off the invoice value to the nearest higher number that is a
multiple of the rounding limit specified.
b. For Rounding limit , enter the number to calculate the nearest number as a multiple of
this number to round off. For example, if you mention 5, the invoice value will be rounded
off to the nearest number that is a multiple of 5.

c. Accept the ledger. As always, you can press Ctrl+A to save.

2. In the sales voucher, select the ledger. The ledger value will be rounded off as per the rounding
method and limit.
 In the above example, if the rounding method was set to Not Applicable , the tax amount
would be 4,788.87. As the rounding method is set to Normal Rounding , with Rounding
limit as 5, the tax amount is calculated as 4,790.00.

You can use this procedure to round off the ledger value in sales invoice.

Receive Money Against Sales

On making a sale, you receive money from your party instantly or at a later date. To settle the
amount for which you have made a sales of items or services, you can record a receipt in reference

you can record a receipt. When you make a sale and therefore pass a sales entry against the
advance received, you can use the receipt as the reference to settle the advance received. You can
also account for payments received after deducting discounts, when recording the receipt.
