Ledger and related groups

So Many frequently, I receive comments/feedback from my readers that after downloading the latest software of tally.erp 9 and creating a new company in tally.erp 9what they should do to learn the tally.erp 9 and how to go ahead. The most confusing thing in tally.erp 9 for a beginner esp if unfamiliar with accounts is the ledgers and grouping of the same

The next step for all such readers, I will suggest to t to create some ledgers in tally.erp 9. Because in when a new company is created in tally.erp 9, two ledger will be created by default that is cash and profit and loss account.

So, until and unless an user create some ledgers in a newly created company, he/she will not be able to post any entries in tally.erp 9

BUT again while creating the ledgers in tally,erp 9, people feels difficulty that is which ledger should be created and more difficult is to determine the group to which a ledger will belongs to.

For the benefit of all such readers, I am giving a brief list in general nature but again some basic ledgers  with related group which every company should have to maintain. Before going further , you should have a look to the basic accountancy that will enhance your understanding to accountancy and tally.erp 9 and will help you to learn tally.erp 9 in a quick and smooth way.
