Creating ledger a ledger in tally 9

Creation of a Ledger account

The information required for creation of ledgers depends on the features opted by you. If the setting of the Accounting Features [F:11] of your company is No for all options, your ledger creation screen would need minimal information.

It should be noted that Tally automatically creates two ledger accounts, viz., Cash (under Cash-in-hand) and Profit & Loss Account (direct Primary account). It does not make any other presumptions. You must create all other account

heads. There are no restrictions in ledger creation except that you cannot create another Profit & Loss A/c (actually an account that behaves like one). You may create any number of Cash accounts (by another name like "Petty Cash" ).

Gateway of Tally > Accounts Info. > Ledgers > Single Create
