10 August 2024 In Tally ERP9, if you are seeing "Purchase Bill to Come" reflected in your Profit and Loss Account, it's likely due to incorrect accounting treatment or the need for adjustments in your accounting entries. Here's how you can correct it:

### **Steps to Correct Purchase Bill to Come in Profit & Loss Account:**

1. **Identify the Problem:**
- Ensure that "Purchase Bill to Come" is a liability and should not be reflected in the Profit & Loss Account. It should be shown in the Balance Sheet under Current Liabilities.

2. **Check Your Accounting Entries:**
- Ensure that you have correctly recorded your purchases. Purchases should be recorded in the Purchase Account or appropriate expense account.

3. **Create or Adjust the Provision for Purchases:**
- To show "Purchase Bill to Come" properly, you need to record it as a liability.

**a. Create a Provision for Purchases Account:**
- Go to **Gateway of Tally** → **Accounts Info** → **Create Ledger**.
- Create a new ledger with the name "Provision for Purchases" under the group "Current Liabilities."

**b. Make the Journal Entry for Provision:**
- Go to **Gateway of Tally** → **Accounting Vouchers** → **Journal**.
- Create a journal entry:
- **Debit** the Purchase Account with the amount of the bill.
- **Credit** the "Provision for Purchases" account.

This entry will move the purchase amount from the Profit & Loss Account to the Balance Sheet under Current Liabilities.

4. **Adjust Purchases When Bills Are Received:**
- When you receive the actual bill:
- **Debit** the Purchase Account with the amount of the bill.
- **Credit** the Supplier’s Account (or Cash/Bank if paid).

5. **Reconcile Your Accounts:**
- Ensure that the Provision for Purchases account is reconciled and cleared once the actual purchase bill is recorded. This ensures that the liability is accurately represented.

6. **Review Reports:**
- After making these changes, review the Profit & Loss Account and Balance Sheet to ensure that the "Purchase Bill to Come" is reflected under Current Liabilities and not in the Profit & Loss Account.

### **Example of Entries:**

**Provision for Purchase:**

| Account | Debit | Credit |
|--------------------------|-----------|-----------|
| Purchase Account | ₹50,000 | |
| Provision for Purchases | | ₹50,000 |

**Actual Purchase Bill Received:**

| Account | Debit | Credit |
|--------------------------|-----------|-----------|
| Purchase Account | ₹50,000 | |
| Provision for Purchases | | ₹50,000 |
| Supplier’s Account | | ₹50,000 |

These steps should help you ensure that your "Purchase Bill to Come" is accurately reflected and not erroneously shown in the Profit & Loss Account.
