09 February 2009 As per my knowledge, this feature is not given in tally , to change the unit of measurement in between. You will have to change all entries that you have made. If the volume is large then its better to create it as a separate item, and transfer the balance of old unit to a new unit via a Stock Transfer Vouche (Stock Journal)

10 February 2009 Thank you very much for your solution Sri. CA-Tarun Maheshwari Sir. Presently we followed this practice which u have told. But this practice will take lot of time to change entire entries. Any way thanks for your solution

10 February 2009 Thats why I suggest you to instead of changing the entire entries, you just pass a Stock Journal and transfer the balance of old ledger into the new ledger. This is a valid entry. Please ensure the authentication of top management in this regard. By using this way, you can save yourself from transferring the entire entries.
