In business, you can pay daily wages, regular business expenses like stationery, printing, postage, and other miscellaneous expenses, or payments to your suppliers with cash as it is an instant payment method. In TallyPrime, you can record such cash payments in single entry mode. If you are unfamiliar with the accounting rules, you can use the single-entry mode of accounting. Once you select the ledgers correctly, TallyPrime automatically records your transaction as per the accounting rules.

Suppose you want to make payment through Cash for Conveyance and Telephone expenses incurred in your business. You need to select Cash account under the Account field and under Particulars select the conveyance and telephone accounts and enter the respective amounts. Similarly, you can make payments to your suppliers. You have to select your supplier account under Particulars, and you can record the transaction.

You can make bank payments and record them using the Payment voucher. In the Receipt voucher, select the Bank account under the Account field and expenses or party ledger under Particulars. You can make payments for more than one expense or to more than one supplier through a single voucher in case they are sister concerns.
