Sales Order Tally.ERP 9


In Tally.ERP9, a Sales Order (SO) is a document that is used to record an agreement between a buyer and a seller for the sale of goods or services. It is created by the seller and contains the details of the items to be sold, the delivery date, and the payment terms. A Sales Order helps to ensure that the seller and the buyer are on the same page regarding the goods or services to be provided, and it serves as a reference for the future in case of any discrepancies.

Here are the steps to create a Sales Order in Tally.ERP9:

Sales Order


  • Go to the main menu and select Inventory Vouchers.
  • Select Sales Order from the list of available vouchers.
  • Enter the details of the customer or the buyer, such as the name, address, and contact information.
  • Enter the details of the items to be sold, such as the product name, quantity, and rate.
  • Enter the delivery date and any other relevant information, such as payment terms and conditions.
  • Save the Sales Order.

Once the Sales Order is saved, it can be printed and sent to the customer for confirmation. If there are any discrepancies, the customer can provide feedback or make changes to the Sales Order before accepting the order.

In Tally.ERP9, a Sales Order can also be used to create a Sales Invoice, which is used to record the sale of goods or services to the customer. When a Sales Invoice is created from a Sales Order, the details of the order are automatically carried over to the invoice, saving time and reducing the chances of errors.
