Tally ERP 9 Release 3 - Stock Journal

The bug/issue in Tally ERP 9 Release 2.0 relating to Stock Journal XML tags has been now rectified in this release.

Tally ERP 9 Release 3 - IGNORED response tag

The latest release - Tally ERP 9 Release 3.0 correctly displays the value for the IGNORED tag in the response tags. Earlier, the IGNORED tag used to incorrectly show 0 even if the record pushed into Tally was ignored by Tally.

Stock Value appears incorrectly

Scenario

In a Tally Company with Multiple Locations/Godowns set to Yes, the Stock Value appears incorrectly in StockSummary report in the following situation where :-

Opening Stock of Item A
Godown A - 5 Nos @ Rs 3 = Rs 15
Godown B - 5 Nos @ Rs 3 = Rs 15

Sale from Godown B - Qty 7 pcs.

PS:
As the Stock in Godown B is 5 Nos, and the Sale entry is of Qty 7 Nos, there is negative balance in Godown B and the stock-value (of both Godown A and Godown B - i e. total stock) is shown incorrectly in Stock Summary statement. This happens only when there is negative Stock and Multiple locations feature is enabled.

Tested with Tally ERP 9 Release 2.1
