Sales - Inclusive of VAT with Override using Item Default

Tally.ERP 9 provides a facility to specify default Ledgers for a stock item for easy account allocations in Purchase or Sales invoices. The default ledger account set for a stock item is known as Item Default.

Item Default will be useful while recording  sales/purchase invoice for multiple items with different VAT/Tax Rates, as Items will be automatically allocated to the Ledgers defined in Item Master. This facilitates the user to pass the entries faster and with ease.

Here, we will be explaining about

  • Setting default ledgers for Stock Items

  • Create Inclusive of VAT Voucher Class by enabling Override using Item Default

  • Recording sales using Voucher Class.
