How Tally ERP 9 Integration works?

Tally has developed its latest version Tally ERP 9 in account with the user’s convenience and with the fact that they will require some features that were not available in the earlier versions. The several strengths of the latest version also make it a perfect product for integration with other products which calls for the ability to offer the essential APIs for reading and writing. Tally ERP 9 is a complete business solution that offers different ways to integrate data. There are many APIs available in Tally, which are:
  • XML
  • ODBC
  • DLL
These allow seamless integration between application/database in two modes. The first is online mode and the next is offline.  

Online Mode

  • Tally to Tally using synchronisation
  • Tally to External Application and vice versa using the available interfaces
  • Tally to web service using HTTP interface

Offline Mode

  • Tally to External Applications using Export
  • Data from external application in XML using import

Synchronisation

Synchronisation is the way through which integration is done between Tally ERP 9. The data between all the branches can be synchronized with their head office. The words ‘Data Synchronisation’ implies to a process where data is replicated between two or more locations. With the help of this process the branch offices can send data to the head office and vice versa, over a network with a dynamic IP address or static IP address. Data synchronisation flows both ways, i.e. from the client to the server and vice versa.

Integration Ability

Integration with Tally ERP 9 works with your other prevailing IT and Tally solutions with ease, thanks to the several industry standard interfaces that are supported. One can program a spreadsheet in Excel to extract timely information from the latest Tally software version using the ODBC interface. You can then be updated on your key metrics through a linked SMS alert product. These are simple examples of the several Tally integration capabilities available. The most multipurpose interface is the SOAP capability of Tally ERP 9. All programming languages, standard IT products, and development tools support XML. An application can read and write into Tally ERP 9 without writing a single line of code in TDL. If you are already using other business solutions and wish to use the power of accounting, finance and reporting of the latest Tally version, you can export the data from Tally ERP 9, build the XML structure with data, and push it into Tally ERP. Internal unique identifiers, advanced capabilities, multi lingual and error responses will meet your most demanding needs of integration. Irrespective of your requirement, Tally.ERP 9 as the hub in an IT solution, the technical abilities with complete Tally support are available by default without any additional expense.
