Step 1: Gearing Up for Greatness (Accessing the Purchase Voucher)
First things first, you need to find your trusty steed in the Tally ERP 9 rodeo – the Purchase Voucher. There are two ways to wrangle this beast:
Tip: Absorb, don’t just glance.![]()
-
The Gateway to Glory: Head to the Gateway of Tally, that magnificent command center. From there, navigate to Accounting Vouchers. Now, unleash the power of F9 on your keyboard – this magic key is your shortcut to the Purchase Voucher.
-
The Button Bar Blitz: Look at the bottom of your Tally screen, that's your trusty button bar. Spot the F9: Purchase button? Give it a heroic click, and voila! You're in.
Remember: Whichever path you choose, make sure you have the Allow Invoicing option enabled in your Tally settings. Think of it like giving your Purchase Voucher a turbo boost.
Step 2: The Supplier Samba (Party Particulars)
Now that you're facing the Purchase Voucher, it's time to tell it all about the amazing supplier who provided your fidget spinner bounty. Here's what you need to do:

Pick Your Party: In the Party's A/c Name field, tell Tally who you bought those spinners from. You can either select them from an existing list (if they've been a supplier before) or create a new entry if they're a fresh face in your business fiesta.
-
Reference Check (Optional but Awesome): If you have a reference number for the purchase (like an invoice number from your supplier), pop it into the Ref field. This adds a layer of professional pizzazz to your record keeping.
Step 3: The Grand Purchase Parade (Item Details)
Now for the main event – detailing your fidget spinner haul! Here's where you show Tally exactly what you bought:
-
Item Mania: You have two options for adding items:
-
The Chosen One: If the item already exists in your Tally inventory (because, hey, maybe fidget spinners are your thing), just select it from the list. Easy peasy.
-
The Hero of Your Own Inventory Story: Don't see your fidget spinners? No worries! You can be a legendary inventory creator by using Alt + C. Give your fidget spinners a name (be creative!), choose a unit (boxes? bags of joy?), and Ctrl + A to accept your masterpiece.
-
-
Quantity & Rate: Tell Tally how many fidget spinners you bought and the amazing price you snagged (because seriously, who knew fidget spinners would be back?).
Pro Tip: As you enter each item, the Amount will automatically calculate. Just sit back and admire your financial prowess.

Step 4: The Tax Tango (Taxes,Glorious Taxes)
Depending on your tax situation, you might need to add some tax details to your purchase entry. Tally will guide you through this, but if you're ever unsure, consult your tax advisor (they're the real heroes).
Step 5: The Victory Lap (Accepting the Voucher)
Once you've filled in all the details, it's time to claim your victory! Just press Enter (or Ctrl + A) to accept the purchase voucher. Congratulations, you've successfully documented your fidget spinner purchase in Tally ERP 9!
