TallyPrime 5.1 is here to revolutionize the way you manage your business. This latest release is packed with powerful features and enhancements designed to streamline your operations and boost efficiency.
From simplified GST management to improved voucher number control and enhanced payroll compliance, TallyPrime 5.1 offers a comprehensive solution to meet the evolving needs of modern businesses. Let’s look into some of the new features and improvements below.
Effortlessly identify, resolve and track GST related discrepancies between Masters and Transactions , ensuring your data remains accurate and helps to stay compliant with GST Regulations.
When migrating from TallyPrime Release 2.1 (or earlier) to Release 5.1, you can easily manage voucher numbering and HSN/SAC configurations. Here's what you can do:
Continue using the existing numbering method.
Set up the HSN/SAC Summary for all sections, or exclude B2C sections.
Configure the desired length for HSN codes of stock items.
GSTR-1 returns for multiple periods can now be exported into a One Excel File. If a company has multiple GST registrations, it is possible to select a specific registration or all registrations and export the returns at once.
The HSN/SAC Summary is now included in a consolidated, period-wise report within the Annual Computation report.
Transactions rejected because of an inactive GSTIN can now be bulk converted from B2B to B2C with just one click.
Previously, e-Way Bills for export invoices were rejected if the Ship To details included a non-Indian state and missed the pin code of an Indian port. This issue is now fixed. You can now generate e-Way Bills and e-invoices for exports by selecting a valid Indian state and the pin code of the Indian port from where the goods will be shipped.
You no longer need to manually enter the distance between origin and destination pincodes when generating an e-Way Bill. TallyPrime will automatically fetch and display the distance in the e-Way Bill. This applies when the Pin to Pin Distance as per Portal field is blank or the distance information is missing.
You can now generate e-Way Bills for both Material In and Material Out vouchers. This is especially helpful when shipping materials between the principal and job worker for manufacturing.
With the release of FVU Tool Version 8.6 by the Protean Department, the file format for e-returns has been updated. In TallyPrime 5.1, you can now directly export the expected Salary Details (SD) and Standard Deduction values into the Payroll ITeTDS.txt file.
Previously, Provident Fund (PF) contributions were included in the Payroll ITeTDS.txt file export, regardless of the chosen tax regime. With the latest FVU format changes, PF contributions are now excluded from the export for employees under the New Tax Regime.
Previously, Professional Tax and Chapter VI-A deductions were included in the ITeTDS.txt file, even for employees under the New Tax Regime. As per the latest FVU format, these deductions are now excluded for such employees.
Previously, the amount in words in vouchers was shown in English, regardless of the selected language. Starting from TallyPrime Release 5.1, the amount in words will now be displayed and printed in Arabic when the display/print language is set to Arabic.
