ApniTally reader figured out a bug in Tally Payroll in release 2.1. According to him while working in payroll in tally 9 rel. 2.1 you would get problem while altering salary voucher.
The bug
According to ApniTally ReaderMahender Rana from Rajkot, if we credit salary to employee A, B and C for Rs. 1500, 1700 and Rs. 2000 on 31st Jan, 2008 and later try to modify the voucher, it would not accept. Tally would not show the employee under primary cost category and courser wouldn’t move. For example if have to do deductions for employee A say for Rs100/- then voucher alteration is not possible while going to voucher via Display -> Account Books-> Ledger Account -> Salary payable.
The solution
This problem can be overcome by altering the date of joining of the employee below 1/4/2007. Dates above this date would not work. However the joining date of the employee can be altered again after doing the modifications in voucher.
I m still having problem. help. what i did is i credited a month of salary (salary payable) to employee A, (i.e. for the month of July 2011, voucher date August 1, 2011) Now i want to do payment (Dr. salary payable Cr cash). but tally is not showing any cost category. NB: I changed the join date of employee to 1/1/2007. I assume the voucher entry date is August 2, 2011.. any help appreciated
solved!! i alter the primary cost category (accounts info>cost category>alter) and changed allocate non revenue item to YES… Cheers!
