In this release, we have enhanced the VAT experience for the states of Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh, new annexure templates for Tamil Nadu, enhancement of the TDS Nature of Payments report, and the concept of Rule Set as a part of TDL.
● Commercial Taxes Department, Tamil Nadu has introduced new versions of Annexure 8 and Annexure 9 (V1.1.xls). Using Tally.ERP 9 Release 5.4.9, you can export interstate purchases and purchase returns to the new templates.
● If you have been using the VAT module in Tally. ERP 9 5.x series to file returns, for the states of Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh, you will be delighted with the speed with which you can now resolve exceptions. You can group exceptions item-wise or ledger-wise, and resolve multiple exceptions together.
With 5.4.9, we have introduced a new concept called Rule Set. Certain definitions and data types have been introduced to support this concept.
● Rule Set - A capability that allows you to define a set of rules that can be single or multi-dimensional. You can evaluate the conditions against each rule efficiently, both from a memory and a performance perspective.
● Name Set - A capability that helps you to define Name-Value pairs. This helps segregate strings and ensure that strings are separated from the source code expressions. You can define static string data conveniently, and access strings with ease.
● Flag Set - A data type you can use to store a set of logical values and perform operations using appropriate functions.
● Num Set - A data type you can use to store a group of numbers and perform operations using appropriate functions.
