How to Display Income & Expense A/c Instead of Profit & Loss for Non-Commercial Entities in TallyPrime

 

Description

Non-commercial entities such as trusts, associations, societies, and clubs do not operate with a profit motive. Instead of a Profit & Loss Account, these organizations prepare an Income & Expense A/c to reflect their financial performance.

TallyPrime provides a configuration option that allows you to display the Income & Expenditure Account in place of the Profit & Loss Account. This article explains how to enable this setting using a simple configuration in the ledger master.
