As per my knowledge- i create new ledger- advance abc ltd., under current assets.Once we recd material  agst material we will adjust the payment. is it right? Pls clarify...its urgent Regards malarvannan.d

No need to create a separate advance payment ledger. Pass the following entry

1) For advance payment

Supplier A/c………..Dr

To Bank A/c

(Note for accounting in tally: Activate maintain bill by bill detail and select Advance under method of adjustment/Type of Reference)
.
2) For purchase of material

Purchase A/c……….Dr

To Supplier A/c

(Select Against Reference for method of adjustment/Type of Reference and select the advance payment voucher made earlier. Supplier account will automatically be adjusted and will show outstanding payable for the balance amount)

There is no need to create a seperate ledger account. The entry will be as follows:

ABC ltd a/c......Dr. 3000

To Bank                 3000

At the time of actual transaction: Purchase a/c Dr. 10000

To Supplier             3000

To Bank                   7000
