Use TallyPrime in Your Preferred Language
Language should never be a barrier to doing business. TallyPrime supports multilingual accounting, allowing you to display the product, enter data, and print business documents in different languages. While you can enter data in regional languages as well as Arabic and Bangla, the product display is currently available only in Arabic and Bangla.
You can continue maintaining your books and masters in English while printing invoices, reports, account confirmations, and other business documents in your customers or stakeholders preferred language. This helps you communicate more effectively and cater to the needs of local customers and business partners.
If your Tally Partner has provided an additional language dictionary, it will co-exist with the Tally-provided dictionary. By default, TallyPrime gives preference to the Tally-provided dictionary.
