What can Remote Access for you?
Tally.ERP 9 provides remote capabilities for you to access data from anywhere. Using Tally.NET features, you can create remote users (ids), authorize & authenticate them to access company remotely. Currently, the remote connectivity allows you to view/display the required information on your system instantly.
Various usage scenarios of Tally.ERP 9 remote access:
1. Manage business from home – you do not have to be present in your office any more to know the latest update on your business. You can plan your day in advance by checking status of
payables and receivable, pending orders, stock status etc in the morning, before you reach
office. Delegate and plan work better.
2. Business on the move – your absence from office does not affect the visibility to business anymore. Access your business data from a laptop, cyber café or even computer in the hotel where you are staying. Stay connected to your business without being involved.
3. Enhance response time to customers – sales staff in the field can access customer’s (a/the) outstanding statements for immediate reference or discussion. Also before booking a new order or promising delivery dates, a sales person can check the stock status and availability of goods by using Tally installed on the customer’s computer

Chartered accountant and his/her article clerks can access your business data and provide tax computation, compliance and audit advices without having to visit your office. This can help you with continuous compliance.
5. A Tally expert can resolve your support queries remotely– solution to support issues do not have to wait any more. Provide one time access to a Tally expert or a solution provider to fix your product, customisation or any other support issues instantaneously.

7. Maintain personal account at home which can also be accessed from your office.
The Tally.NET ID is the user’s Identity, Tally.NET servers Authenticate the user as being a valid user; you decide what the user is authorised to do.
Remote access is safe and secure
When working with 'remote' data, the system allows all information manipulation to happen on the original machine, and only uses the final results to 'display' (or allow changes) on the remote machine. So, no data - EVER - resides on the remote machine. It simply gets the information it needs, and once you logout (or exit Tally.ERP 9), the connection is just broken and your data remains SECURE on the original machine. In fact, no matter how the connection breaks, your data NEVER moves to another machine, even temporarily.
Data Security:
The Remote connectivity is initiated with a secured Handshake between two computers using Tally.NET environment.
-
Customer can allow / disallow access to the Company Data for remote users at any point of time.
-
Data resides on the Customer’s Computer only.
-
Encrypted Data is transferred between two computers on request.
-
Data will only be transferred through the Tally.NET server and not reside
-
The customer can assign Security controls to remote users depending upon what access to be given.
-
For the Remote user(s) Back up / Restore options will not be available in the remote location.
The remote access is built to be safer because of the following:
Authentication
As these identities are maintained centrally, they are guaranteed to be unique for all users of Tally.NET. These users can also be granted access to any company which is connected to Tally.NET (in any license on Tally.ERP 9) across the world and – whether these companies are created by you or by a business associate.
When such a user attempts to login to a particular company, the authentication of his identity is performed via the Internet – remotely.
Authorisation
Authorisation is NOT performed by Tally.NET. This is under your control: you decide if someone has access, you decide what he has access to. As stated before, you would probably want to restrict what each remote user will be allowed to do on your data – this is done as you would with a 'normal' user (see Security & Access Control).
Requirements for Remote Connectivity:
At your office:
-
Internet connection
-
Tally.ERP 9 License with the Tally.NET subscription
-
Authorise remote users for a Company that has to be accessed remotely
-
Load & Connect the Company to Tally.NET for remote access
Note: For the company to be accessed by the Remote User the computer has to be switched on, and Tally.ERP 9 with company loaded.
At the Remote Location:
Availability of Customisation
During Remote Access, the additional customisations running at your office will also be available to the Remote User at the remote location.
Experience remains the same either working locally on your computer or from a remote location. It is recommended to use broadband connections to enjoy the best remote experience.
