Mark Modified Vouchers for Account Updation
Mark Modified Vouchers is a feature that enables your accountant to share the list of vouchers that got updated in your data while ensuring compliance with statutory norms. An accountant can do this within TallyPrime and you can check the same with ease when you receive your data after verification and corrections.
Let’s assume that you have a business and you don’t have an in-house accountant. Naturally, you will seek guidance from consultant accountants to ensure compliance with the statutory norms and finalisation of accounts. After you share the accounting data of your business with the consultants, they will check the accounts and update records to ensure compliance. You will soon receive the modified business data to keep your books updated. In this process, the authorised personnel in the business verifies the changes before updating their books. Mark Changed Vouchers in TallyPrime come in handy for both the business and accountants in such a situation.
Now, let’s assume that you are an accountant, and you must ensure that once your client shares the data with you, they do not alter the same. If your clients update their data after sharing, the changes will be overwritten when the marked vouchers are imported. After you receive the data, you need to validate the entries and modify or record new entries as required. All the modified vouchers are visible in the Marked Voucher Register which you can export and send to your client to ensure that the modified vouchers are reflected in your client’s book.
With the Mark Modified Voucher feature in TallyPrime, you do not have to stop your operations at the time when your data is getting validated by your consultant. You can continue with your daily operations and import the data shared by your consultant. The modified data, once imported, gets incorporated with your current data. The list of marked vouchers includes all the vouchers that are altered, added, or cancelled, except the deleted vouchers, which are not part of this list.
Mark Modified Vouchers and Share Them with Clients
As a consultant, you need to validate the data shared by your client and make changes as required. You can enable the feature of Mark Modified Vouchers and make the changes. After which you can export and share the modified data with your client.
