Voucher Number in Tally Prime 3.0.1 : Starting multiple series in one voucher

Voucher Number in Tally Prime 3.0 has many new configurations. One feature about which no one knows very much is that, now  you can make multiple invoice series in one voucher itself. we don’t have to make multiple voucher types to get different number series. Now in Tally Prime 3.0 you can generate multiple voucher number series in a single voucher only. Lets understand it a little bit detailed manner.

Multiple voucher number series in a single voucher in Tally Prime

In previous versions of Tally i.e. Tally.ERP 9 or even Tally Prime 2.1 also, if you were maintaining several invoice number series for sales then you have to define separate voucher types for each series. Many businesses maintain multiple bill number series for different type of billings. e.g. for local sales they maintain separate invoice number series where as for out side state sale they manage separate invoice series.

In the same way if you want a series for wholesale which should be different for your retail sale and POS sales then you have to maintain three different vouchers under sales voucher type. One for POS, One for wholesale and one for retail sales. In these voucher types you can maintain three different voucher numbers.

In this way the voucher number in tally prime would be different for each series.
