How would you Display, Alter, Delete a Group account in Tally ?

Display

You can display any account on the screen by selecting Display from the menu.  You would be next given a choice to display any of the above mentioned accounts, the list of which comes on the screen. Please remember the account is just displayed here.  So as not to allow you to alter anything no cursor is provided, since it is only display.

Alter

You can display any account on the screen by selecting Alter from the menu.  You would be next given a choice to select any of the above mentioned accounts, the list of which comes on the screen.

Now you are given the account format with cursor for you to change any information.  You can change Name of any Reserved Group, but its characteristics will remain the same.

Delete

You can delete a group by pressing Alt+D in the Group Alteration screen.  Your confirmation would be sought from you before deleting any record in the form of Yes or No. Click Yes if you are very sure of deleting.

Please remember that System Generated Reserved Groups cannot be deleted.  Also user created groups cannot be deleted if any child group and / or ledger have been placed under the group.  Thus, if you wish to delete a group under which child group or ledger exists, you should move the related ledgers and child groups to other groups first, then you can delete it.
