The Contra Voucher is used to indicate transfer of funds from the following modes:
● Bank account to Cash account
● Bank account to Bank account
● Cash account to Bank account.
● Cash account to Cash account.
When you are passing a Payment voucher, you do not get the Cash and Bank Ledgers for selection in the list of Ledger Accounts on the Debit side and when you are passing a Receipt voucher, you do not get the Cash and Bank Ledgers for selection on the credit side.
However, for users who wish to use the Payment and Receipt vouchers for this nature of transaction, Tally.ERP 9 has the flexibility of defining Payment and Receipt behavior as per Contra voucher.
To use payment/receipt voucher as a contra voucher,
1. Go to Gateway of Tally > Accounting Vouchers.
