Import TALLY Data / Export TALLY Data

Venkat K replied to Sini S on 07-Dec-09 03:47 AM

Tally 9 has an option to export tally data to excel using ODBC

1. Export data from Tally to Excel using ODBC.

2. Export data from excel to sql server.

Process:

Tally allows users to Import data from other software's as well as Export data from Tally to other software's. Tally allows users to Import and Export in ASCII, SDF and XML formats. XML is now the most widely used format of exporting data in the world. Any transactions can be exported from Tally and imported in other software after suitably altering the current structures to accept Tally data structure. The reverse is also possible by writing a small TDL program to accept the data from other software's. The data that is to be imported into Tally can be in either XML or DBF format. Easy Tally data transfer or Tally data migration from Tally 4.5 & Tally 5.4 to Tally 6.3 , Tally 7.2 , etc.

ODBC COMPLIANCE ALLOWS OTHER PROGRAMS TO USE DATA FROM TALLY DIRECTLY. E.G. : MS-EXCEL :
ODBC - OPEN DATABASE CONNECTIVITY

Tally is now ODBC compliant. Hence, any program like MS-Excel, Oracle etc that is ODBC compliant can use data from Tally. Here, data connectivity is dynamic i.e. any new updation in Tally is reflected in other ODBC Compliant Software immediately. Now, with ODBC facility the user can extract data out of Tally and design his own report formats in other ODBC compliant software's.

Procedure :

Now, Load Company -> specify period -> minimize Tally -> Open a new Excel file -> select data -> select 'Get External Data' -> select New database query -> choose Data Source

 
 
Tally connects to data source and displays Tally Wizard query screen -> select the columns you would want to include in the query.
 
 
Once all the columns are selected, the user returns to excel and excel displays all the columns selected
 
 

Method 2:

You can also use third-party dll to export data.

TallyMig is a software utility which allows you to Import data into Tally Accounting Software. It supports Import of data from various sources like Excel, SQL-Server, MySQL, Access, DBase, Foxpro,  Visual Foxpro DBF's and several other database formats.

Thank you Very much.... It is a great help.

But what I need is a vb.net form from where I can fetch the data from Tally and display it to the users.
Tally people (finance dept) will not do any Export/Import. with my Read-only permission, I have to get that data to my VB.Net application.


Thanks in advance...
