Import Masters from Excel
If you are managing large volumes of master details such as Stock Items and Ledgers in Excel, you can import them into TallyPrime along with e-Invoicing-related fields and Arabic language support, and then send them to the KSA e-Invoicing system.
To simplify this process, TallyPrime provides:
-
A customized Excel template (in Arabic) with all the mandatory user-defined fields pre-filled.
-
A TCP file and mapping files (.tsf) to ensure accurate import of data into TallyPrime.
-
Download the KSA_Excel Import UDFs in Arabic language zip folder.
-
Unzip the folder.
-
Select the downloaded zip folder > right-click > Extract All.
-
Browse and select a destination for the files to be extracted.
-
Select Extract to view the following files under the KSA_Excel Import UDFs in Arabic language folder.
-
.tcp file: To load the TDL for importing the masters in Arabic.
-
.tsf file: To import the ledgers and stock items into TallyPrime.
-

In the Excel template, enter your master data (Ledgers or Stock Items).
You may use the template as-is or customize it to modify column names or structure. Ensure that the corresponding updates are also made in the mapping files (.tsf) to avoid mismatched imports. -
