Migrating Service Tax Data

 

Upgrading Tally 9 Data to Tally.ERP 9:

After installing Tally.ERP 9 Release 1.8, load the company (Tally 9 data). In this scenario we have taken the example of ABC Company.

  1. Once the Company is loaded the application asks for Rewrite of Data.

Press Enter or Y to Rewrite Version. On pressing enter Application asks for the backup of data before rewrite.

You can press Enter or Y to take backup or press N to rewrite the data without backup. If Backup before rewrite is selected Tally.ERP 9 displays the Backup companies on disk screen

Here user can specify the Destination to backup the data.

After backup of Data Application rewrites the Data (Rewriting happens in Three Phases).

  1.  On re-writing the data application imports the Statutory Masters

  1. After import of Statutory Masters, application Migrates the Tally 9 data to Tally.ERP 9 data structure. First application migrates all the masters and then migrates the service tax vouchers.

Note: While Migrating the Service Tax transaction Tally.ERP 9 displays the error message Function: 'STX FetchTaxObjValues' LABLE: : Could not find object 'TaxObjects'.

 

This message is displayed to optimize the performance of Migration of Service Tax Data. Users can ignore this message while migrating the Data.

If all the above three steps are successfully complete then the application allows the user to continue (to record the transactions). In case of any error during any of the steps mentioned, application displays the warning message.

After migration of data, if the Service Tax Migration is not complete then the Tally.ERP 9 displays the Warning! Message with the information of the file to be referred to correct the failed vouchers.

Why Service Tax Data Migration is required?
