Tally Server 9
Tally.Server 9 is a ‘Series A’ Enterprise Class product for medium and large size businesses whose pace of growth requires for it to invest in infrastructure that will help them improve their business efficiencies. Tally.Server 9 helps to enhance the power and control of Tally.ERP9 users by converting the existing ‘peer-to-peer’ kind of data access to ‘server based’ data management. The Tally.Server 9 technology is built with multi-version concurrency capabilities for providing most efficient scalability. Requests from every user get equal priority and get solved in parallel with others, rather than sequentially. There is no queuing of access or modification requests and so every user will feel as if he were working with his own local copy or snapshot of data.
Features of Tally Server 9:
High Concurrency
Multiple users will be able to simultaneously load companies, save transactions, export reports, print reports, import data, take backup and perform other data related activities without experiencing any downtime or wait state. With greater speed of task completion and zero downtime, Tally.Server 9 helps ensure optimal utilization of man hours for your organization!
Improved Security
The data files are now managed through Tally.Server 9. The physical location or path for the data on the server is not required to be made known or accessible to any user. The clients just require the name of the data server, which will be enough to access and operate Tally.ERP9. Furthermore, operations for company data management like backup, restore etc. are also controlled with server level permissions. This will ensure that data managed by Tally.Server 9 is only available with necessary authorization.
High Reliability
Availability of the system is important for any business. Any time the system is unavailable; there is a loss of productive time. This can happen due to various reasons for example, Maintenance operations like backup that require all users to stop working so that a proper and consistent backup can be taken. This is often managed by doing such operations late at nights or at odd hours. With Tally.Server 9, backup can be taken anytime without affecting either the speed of access for the user or the consistency of data that is backed up. In other words users can continue entering transactions or operating reports while the backup is happening. So there is zero downtime for backup.
Business Process Optimization
Since the access is controlled through Tally.Server 9, the authorized users will be able to monitor who is currently logged in, which companies are open, track the activities and even disconnect users if such a requirement arises. Each business process or function requires users to perform certain activities and spend some time to input and/or analyse information. As an example, a user has to take data from bank statement and input it into the bank ledger on the system for reconciliation of balances.
