Query on Year closing in Tally.


This query is : Resolved 

(Querist)
02 May 2009 The financial year has been closed in Tally 7.2 version.



I do not want someone to accidentally make any more entries in that financial year as all the figures have been finalised and audited. Now I would like to block the accounting staff from making any more entries or edit entries for that financial year.But they should be able to view the transactions.How should I do it in tally. Please explain step by step.



Thanks.

02 May 2009 Hi Anil,

Tally does not have any such 'block' feature. It is not possible to give a read only access in tally. But you can take following steps to take care of your concerns-

1. Do not carry forward the previous years a/c in current year. That is for new financial year open another company with same name but year change. Put audited op bal fig & do the rest of the accounting.

2. Put a password in last year tally so that it can opened only by a select few.

3. Start the audit log(a feature in tally) of last year's a/c so that you may know if anyone has made any changes in last year a/c.

Hope this resolves your query.

The purpose of allowing users to give ready only access to users is to allow the concerned people to see all the transactions of debtors or creditors from the begining for reconciliation / payment purpose as well as to take an agewise report of Dr.s / Cr.s.

If I open a new company for a different year and put opening balances the users may not be able to access dr.s and cr.s data as mentioned above.
