Shut a Company/Alter a Company

Shut a company means to unload it. It does not mean that you have deleted it. Simply select it again to load and work on it again. Double-click the button [ALT][F1]:Shut Cmp or press [ALT]+F1 and select the company you want to shut.

Alter a Company

You can modify, at any time, any information given whilst creating the company.

At the Gateway of Tally

[ALT]+F3 —> Alter

The menu below gives options relating to company information. This includes Alter.

Delete a Company

In order to delete a company, you have to load the same first and then using Alt+F3, proceed to the Company Information menu. Click on Alter and reselect the company and use Alt+D to delete. Tally will prompt for a confirmation on deleting the company.

Note: In case passwords are used to log into the company, only the administrator has access to delete.

** With adequate security (that is, owner level security), you could select to alter a company (Gateway of Tally —> Alt+F3 (Company Info) —> Alter —> select company to alter), and then press Alt+D (delete) to remove the company from the hard disk. Take care, however, that this process cannot be reversed, and all files and directories associated with the company would be permanently removed.

The option Create Group Company is not active when only one company is currently loaded. For this option to be used, more than one company should have been loaded.
