Hey! If you’re unable to change the date in Tally ERP 9 (version 6.0.3), it’s usually due to a couple of common reasons. Here are some checks and fixes:
### Possible reasons why you can’t change the date:
1. **Voucher Type Configuration Restriction:**
Sometimes, the voucher type might have a **date lock** or restriction enabled.
2. **Period Lock (Accounting Period Lock):**
Tally can be set to allow entries only within a certain date range.
3. **User Security Rights:**
If you’re logged in as a user with restricted rights, date change might be disabled.
4. **Tally Software Bug or Glitch:**
Rare, but can happen especially in older versions.
---
### How to fix this:
#### 1. Check Accounting Period
* Press **F2 (Period)** on the Gateway of Tally screen.
* Set the date range to a broader period covering the date you want to enter.
* Try again to change the voucher date.
#### 2. Check Voucher Type Configuration
* Go to **Gateway of Tally > Accounts Info > Voucher Types > Alter**
* Select the voucher type you are using (e.g., Sales, Payment)
* Check if **"Use Date Lock"** or similar option is enabled; if yes, disable it.
#### 3. Check User Rights
* If you use security control, log in as **Admin** or user with full rights.
* Go to **Company > Security Control > User Roles** and see if date change is restricted.
#### 4. Try to Change Date with Shortcut
* In voucher entry screen, press **F2** to change the date.
* If F2 doesn’t work, it means the date change is disabled somewhere.
---
### If nothing works:
* Try restarting Tally or your computer.
* Consider updating Tally to the latest version if possible.
* Backup your data and reinstall Tally if you suspect a bug.
