Q5. What is a Ledger in Tally?
A Ledger is the actual account head to which you identify a transaction. You pass all accounting voucher entries using ledgers. However, as
mentioned in the introduction to Groups, all ledgers have to be classified into groups. Hence, a thorough understanding of account classification is
important for working with ledgers. We have reproduced certain portions from the group’s chapter here.

44. Q10. What do you understand by Voucher?
This is a non-accounting voucher and the entries made using it will not affect your accounts. That is, Tally does not post these entries to ledgers but stores
them in a separate "Memo Register". You can alter and convert a Memo voucher into a regular voucher when you decide to bring the entry into your
books. View all optional vouchers through Display —>Exception Reports —> Optional Vouchers. View them from the Day Book as well.
Some uses for Memo vouchers
Making suspense payments
For example, the company gives an employee cash to buy office supplies, the exact nature and cost of which are unknown. You could enter a voucher for
the petty cash advance, a voucher to record the actual expenditure details when they are known, and another voucher to record the return of surplus cash.
However, a simpler way is to enter a Memo voucher when the cash is advanced, and then turn it into a Payment voucher for the actual amount spent, when
known.
Vouchers not verified at the time of entry
It sometimes happens that you do not understand the details of a voucher you are entering. Enter it as a Memo voucher and amend it when you get the
details.
Items given on approval
You will normally only enter completed sales into the books. Suppose items are given "on approval". You can track them with a Memo voucher and
convert it into a proper Sales voucher, or delete the memo voucher, depending on the outcome.
Reminder service
You can enter a Memo voucher for a transaction that will take place in the future and get Tally to remind you about it one day prior to the date. For
example, insurance premiums due, taxes due, installment payments, post-dated cheques.
Q11. Show the use of all the Voucher types available with Tally
Tally is pre-programmed with a variety of accounting vouchers, each designed to perform a different job. The standard vouchers are:
-Payment voucher

-Contra voucher

You can alter these vouchers to suit your company, and also create new ones. For example, if you wish to distinguish between cash and bank payments
you can create vouchers to do this.
The function of each voucher type is now explained.

but stores them in a separate "Memo Register". You can alter and convert a Memo voucher into a regular voucher when you decide to bring the entry into

49. Optional Voucher
This is another non-accounting voucher. However, it differs from the Memo voucher in that it is not a separate voucher type. You mark an
existing voucher, (e.g., a payment voucher or a receipt voucher) as 'Optional'. Press [CTRL]+[L] or click on the button. This button toggles with 'Regular'.
By marking it 'Optional' the voucher does not get posted anywhere but remains in the have the Optional Register. You can view all optional vouchers
through Display —>Exception Reports —> Optional Vouchers. View them from the Day Book as well.
Use of Optional Vouchers
Obviously, a transaction has not been completed and you do not want it to affect the accounts. But you want to record it so that you simply
modify the voucher and remove the 'Optional' mark by 'Regularizing' it. Display the voucher in 'Alter' form and click on 'Regular'. This way you can
regularize the voucher and then post it. E.g. Performance sales invoice. In fact, print an optional sales invoice as a Performance Invoice.
You can choose to view a Balance Sheet including Optional vouchers. Normally, since these vouchers have no bearing on the books and
statements. However, you might want to see their impact without actually posting the transactions. Optional vouchers allow you to do so. This not unlike
the reversing journal.
Reversing Journals
Reversing Journals are special journals that are automatically reversed after the date of the journal. They exist only for a day and are effective on
the date of the reversing journal. Moreover, they are effective only when called for in reports like the Balance Sheet.
For example, it is 30th June and you want to view the Balance Sheet as of today but June salaries are not due for payment until the first week in July.
There is, therefore, a large liability, which would not be reflected in the Balance Sheet. To overcome this, you would enter a reversing journal voucher
dated 30th June, which would look something like this:
DrSalaries 5,000
CrProvisions (Current Liabilities) 5,000
When you view the Balance Sheet, you would ask Tally for the report with the reversing journals included. The voucher affects the report only
for that day, i.e., 30th
June.
Post-dated vouchers
While entering vouchers, you can post-date them, and Tally will not update the ledgers until the date in question. This is most useful for entering
transactions that take place on a regular basis. For example, if you pay for something by installments, you can set-up the payments in advance, and Tally
will only enter them in the ledgers as they fall due. Mark vouchers 'Post Dated' by [CTRL]+[D] or click on the button. The button toggles with 'Regular'.
50. Stock Journal
A stock journal is used to transfer materials or stock from one location to another location. Stocks could even simply be shown as consumed. Or
even only produced without both consumption and production. Hence, it is not like other journal where debits and credits must match.
You can specify quantities that are move as well as their rates and amounts. If standard rates have been entered in the stock item masters, they
will appear. In the target location, you can specify additional costs incurred without actually affecting accounting at all. Only the stock value goes up.
Hence, it is technically correct where an expense incurred on production or inward has been accounting for in the cost of that item.
The Stock Journal Screen has three parts – the top part accepts general information, the left hand side is the Source location or Consumption Part
and the right hand side is the Destination location or the Production Part. While you must furnish the common information required in the top part, you
may elect to give information for only the left or the right part or both.
