While entering vouchers, you can mark them as post dated. Tally.ERP 9 will not update the vouchers in ledgers until the specified date is approached. This is useful to enter transactions that take place on a regular basis. For example, if you pay for something by installments, you can set up the payments in advance, and Tally.ERP 9 will only enter them in the ledgers as they fall due.
