Tally ERP 9 for Manufacturing Industry

Manufacturing business produces items with the usage of machines, tools and labor. The core process of manufacturing includes raw materials that are transformed into finished goods on a large scale. Such finished goods might be used for manufacturing other, more complex products, such as household appliances or automobiles, or sold to wholesalers, who then sell them to retailers and the retailers sell to the end users, i.e. the consumers. Tally ERP 9 plays a key role in the business functioning for the manufacturing industry. It benefits the business immensely by the following functions and features:

Stock Item Classified as Work in Progress, Raw Material, Finished Goods


The user can categorize stock items as per his needs. In manufacturing industry, the user will majorly have three broad classifications, i.e. raw materials, work in progress, finished goods. All items that are procured to manufacture a specific item are called Raw Material and are grouped under the group ‘Raw Materials’ whereas, a product whose shape has changed, but has not reached its complete stage is known as semi furnished item. These items will be grouped under the Group ‘Work in Progress” and any item that’s changed its shape/nature totally and reached the final form to sell are known as finished goods and is grouped under ‘finished goods’ group. The user can also create ledgers with the name Work in Progress, Raw Materials and Finished Goods under the group stock in hand. Once the user has deactivated the option ‘Integrate Accounts with Inventory’ based on the closing balances entered by the user, Tally addons / modules automatically displays the total of closing balances of all the ledgers grouped under the group Stock in Hand.
