Now, Enhance Your Tally.ERP 9 With Add-ons From TallyShop

Did you know that in addition to using the existing capabilities of the Tally.ERP 9 system, you can personalise your Tally.ERP 9 to deliver customised solutions according to your business requirements? This can be done by downloading additional features or applications from TallyShop, an online marketplace for Add-ons developed for Tally.ERP 9.

From Tally Solutions’ ‘TallyShop’, an online application store set up by Tally in collaboration with its implementation partners, it is now possible to download new features and functionalities to your Tally.ERP 9 to meet specific business needs like being able to view the outstanding balance in the printed invoice, print the address book and do a whole lot more.

Through TallyShop, you can easily buy specialized applications to meet your firm’s specific business requirements. Named ‘Add-ons’, these applications or features can be integrated with the Tally.ERP 9 system.

What are ‘Add-ons’?
Add-ons are plug-ins or extensions that can add extra functionalities or capabilities to the software. There are hundreds of Add-ons that you can find at TallyShop and each has a specialized function to meet different requirements. Add-ons offer ready-made solutions to Tally users at an affordable price. Prices start from as low as Rs180 and users either purchase the Add-ons directly or try them out for a limited period of time.

TallyShop is an easily accessible Add-ons repository or market place where Tally users can browse, find, download and evaluate these applications. TallyShop offers Add-ons in various subscription models — for free, on rent, based on a subscription and as upgrades.

So, let’s head to TallyShop and explore a few Add-ons, many of which may fit your business requirements!
