Working with Trial Balance Report

Display Trial Balance

A Trial Balance is a summary of all ledger balances to check whether the figures are correct and balanced. Considering that the journal entries are error-free and posted correctly to the general ledger, the total of all debit balances should equal the total of all the credit balances.

In Tally.ERP 9, the matching of the Trial Balance is a foregone conclusion since all voucher entries are in Debit – Credit format and must balance at the entry point.

To view the Trial Balance

Go to Gateway of Tally > Display >Trial Balance
