Sending payroll to Tally
Download a payroll month as a journal voucher and import it into Tally in a minute.
After a payroll run is processed, open it and click Export to Tally.
First time
You'll see the ledger names Orgwise will use: Salaries & Wages, Salary Payable, PF Payable, ESI Payable, Professional Tax Payable, TDS on Salary Payable and so on. Change them to the exact names in your Tally. Orgwise remembers them for next month.
Choose one voucher for the whole payroll (most common) or one per employee.
In Tally
- Gateway of Tally → Import → Vouchers.
- Choose the XML file you downloaded.
- Done. You'll see a Journal voucher dated the pay date.
Your accountant can also use the CSV version in any other software.
Not working?
Tally says a ledger doesn't exist. The name doesn't match exactly (spaces and capitals count). Create the ledger in Tally, or change the name in the export window, then download again.
It went into the wrong company. Type the Tally company name in the export window, or open the right company in Tally before importing.
Frequently asked questions
Does the voucher balance?
Always. Salary expense and employer contributions on the debit side equal net pay plus every deduction on the credit side.
Is the employer's PF included?
Yes, as an expense (debit) and in PF Payable (credit), together with the employee's share.
