Introduction
Tally has always, through the course
of its history, delivered tremendous and
increasing value to the customer and
the entire ecosystem. With the release of
Tally.ERP 9, this value has increased
at least by an order of magnitude. In this writeup, we will be concentrating
mainly on the factors that contribute to this increased
value. Here and there, however, we
will be making a reference to what already had
existed and also to what will be
available in the short term (counted in weeks and
months).
Also, despite the fact that there is
an additional value proposition for our multi location
users, we will be concentrating on
the huge benefit to single user, single-site
customers as they form the bulk of
our existing user base.
In this write-up, we will primarily
try to discover the benefits, whether to the
organization or an owner –
particularly since, in a small business situation, the owner
is identified strongly with the
organization - through different use-case scenarios.
Also, there will be no conscious
attempt to describe or explain the features themselves
in this write-up.
This document describes what is
currently available (as on the date of first availability
of Tally.ERP 9). In a few places,
immediately forthcoming scenarios have been
described. These places are marked
with an asterisk (*)
New paradigms in Tally.ERP 9
The availability of remote access,
other remote capabilities and other facilities which
come with Tally.Net have brought
about this possibility of a paradigm shift in the way
customers use Tally. Let us see some
of the ways in which customers may use and
benefit from Tally.ERP 9.
Remote Access
Scenarios of use
By Owner
I have a factory
(factory-cum-office) which is some distance away from where I stay. I
now have the ability to look at what
happened yesterday (sales, purchases, collections,
expenses, production etc.) before I
even have my breakfast and based on this I can
now give instructions for the day.
This means that the office now starts functioning
effectively and does not have to
wait for me to arrive at the factory. This is a huge
improvement in efficiency.
I frequently travel and I love the
fact that now I can keep track of what is happening in
the office.
In the days before cell phones, we
used to go to a supplier or a customer’s office and
in case of a need, could use his
office phone to complete urgent business. I can now
use anyone’s Tally like that-- to
access my data residing at my office.
Soon, I can simply go to my vendor’s
office, negotiate a purchase and using his
computer and Tally, log on to my
data, with my license (username and password),*
enter a purchase order and print it
out on his printer! .
My son runs an independent company
and I have remote access on it. This is perfect
for keeping an eye on things without
any embarrassment between me and my son.
