Questions & Answers

  1. What benefits do I have with Remote Access?
    Remote access allows you to access your company from anywhere and refer to the data or make necessary changes, without you having to be present at your business location. In addition, you can:
    • Record or Alter Vouchers: The user with the required permissions can create or alter vouchers. If you or your employee meets a supplier, and strike a favourable deal, a purchase order can be raised immediately from your TallyPrime company.
    • Audit Accounts: You can allow your auditor to do verification of your books using remote access. For this, you just need to allow remote access to your company for the auditor’s Tally.NET ID. Like you or your employees logging in to the company, auditor also can log in and do the work.
  2. Why am I not able to select more than one company to connect?
    Selecting more than one company is supported only in TallyPrime Rel 3.0 & later. If you are still using TallyPrime 2.1 or earlier, you can upgrade to the latest release, if your TSS is valid.
