About group in tally,Why group, create group in tally


Account can be grouped in tally. This is very useful feature. Why groups when we can easily create and manage ledger? I will explain this with one simple example.
ABC Ltd has four Sale team;
TeamSelling area
ANorth
BEast
CSouth
DWest
Salesmen of each area require Debtors list or outstanding statement of the particular area every week to get dues from them. In such case Debtors of each area can be grouped .The report based on that group is easily available from tally. There is no requirement for segregation from complete debtors list. detailed explanation will follow this lesson.

Ledgers of similar nature are bring together is called group. There are many pre defined groups in tally. A Ledger can be grouped at the time of its creation. And group of a particular account can be changed at any time.
