Tracking Stock in Tally.ERP9

In Tally, we can track stock movements like receiving goods or delivering goods. It is necessary to record stock movement to maintain Real-time Inventory.

  Tally provides separate vouchers to record inventory transactions, these vouchers are found under Inventory Vouchers option in Gateway of Tally.

Receipts Notes Voucher (Alt+F9)

Generally, whenever you buy goods, you pass a Purchase voucher. However, if you have not received a bill then you can simply pass a Receipt Note. This updates the stock of that item but does not affect the financial accounts. When you receive the bill, you can adjust it against this Receipt Note. You can pass a Receipt Note voucher by pressing the (Alt + F9) key.

Delivery Notes Voucher (Alt+F8)

When you sale goods to a customer, you generally raise a Sales invoice. However, sometimes you send goods out with a Delivery Note and later raise a Sales invoice against that delivery note. Delivery notes update goods stock value but cant change account value. You can pass a Delivery Note voucher by pressing the (Alt + F8) key.

Enabling Tracking system

If you want to use Stock Tracking Feature of Tally.ERP9 then you need to Set Yes for Use Tracking Numbers (enables delivery and receipts notes) option from Inventory Feature Sheet (Press F11 to access company feature and then press F2 to open Inventory Feature)
