We believe that these improvements will further enhance the user experience, and we look forward to hearing your feedback.

New Features

  • Tally Integration (beta)
    Tally has long been a popular choice among accountants due to its robust features and ease of use. Additionally, Billees is proud to offer seamless integration with a wide range of accounting software options, providing users with the flexibility they need to manage their finances effectively.



    Supported Masters:
    1. Product/Item master(s) along with UOM, HSN, GST Rates
    2. Supplier Masters
    3. Customer Masters

    Transactions:
    We are thrilled to announce that Billees now sends complete invoice data, including line items, to Tally. This feature enables Tally to efficiently compute GST reports and HSN summaries, making it easier for businesses to manage their finances effectively. We are confident that this enhancement will provide our users with an even more seamless experience and help them stay compliant with tax regulations.

    Compatable with: Tally ERP and Tally Prime.

  • Excel import: Customer / Supplier master data
    With Billees' new Excel import feature, you can save valuable time by seamlessly importing customer and supplier data. This easy-to-use feature allows you to transfer data from Excel to Billees quickly and efficiently, ensuring that your records are up-to-date and accurate.

  • Generic Price level:
    Defining price levels using a combination of product, sub-group, main group, and brand is a useful approach for simplifying pricing strategy. To get started, first define each of these categories within your product catalog or inventory. Products are the individual items you sell, while sub-groups are smaller categories within a product group, such as different types of clothing within the larger category of apparel. Main groups are larger categories that encompass several sub-groups, such as apparel, accessories, and footwear. Finally, brands are the specific manufacturers or designers of your products.



    Once you have defined these categories, you can use them to analyze pricing data and identify patterns or trends. For example, you may find that certain brands consistently command higher prices than others within a particular sub-group. This information can inform your pricing strategy by helping you determine which products or brands to promote, discount, or price competitively. It can also help you identify areas where you may be able to increase margins by adjusting pricing within certain categories or sub-groups.

  • Smart pricing table:
    This release comes with a Smart Price feature that automatically generates a price table for your products based on markup or margin calculations. With Smart Price, you can easily determine your selling price without the need for a calculator, whether you want to mark up your cost or set a margin on your MRP. This time-saving tool enables you to make informed pricing decisions and stay competitive in your market.



    How to: To use the smart price table feature, start by selecting a product and adding it to the line item grid in either the sale or purchase screen. Then, press the Alt+M key combination on your keyboard to populate the smart price table.

  • Print Profile Selection:
    With the latest update, you have the option to select a print profile template before printing your invoice, making it easier to create a beautifully designed invoice. Additionally, you can now set a default printer for each print profile, streamlining the printing process.



    How to: To activate this feature, navigate to the Print Profile Settings menu, choose the default print profile, and edit the template header. From there, enable the "Ask for Print Profile Selection" option.

  • Outstanding dues - notification:
    The latest release includes a feature that notifies you of any outstanding dues from customers or suppliers directly on your screen. Simply click on the notification button to access a list of all the invoices or bills that are due


New Reports & Enhancements

  • We are excited to announce the introduction of new reports in this release. These reports offer valuable insights and data analysis, providing you with a more comprehensive understanding of your business operations.

    1) Sales Book : This Report provides a summary of daily sales during a selected period. This report includes a breakdown of sales by day, including the GST breakdown and a summary of payments by tender type.

    2) Item expiry analysis: The item expiry analysis report displays a list of items that are approaching their expiration date. This helps you to stay on top of inventory management and prevent any potential losses due to expired items.

    3) Stock transfer between warehouse to warehouse: This report displays all details of stock transfers that occurred during a selected period between different warehouses.

  • Report design customization:

    1) With the Report Template Design feature, you can apply a default data filter to your report template and save it. This means that the next time you run the report, the data filter will be applied automatically, saving you time and effort.

    2) When designing report templates, you can choose to enable the "Show group totals in group row" option to display group summaries directly under their corresponding columns within the group row.

Other Enhancements & Fixes

  • True cost of the item:
    When you receive new inventory and print barcode labels for the transaction, the system captures the true cost of the item and embeds it into the barcode. This helps to ensure accurate profit calculations when you sell the item in the future.

  • Item history:
    To view the transaction history of the selected item in either the purchase or sales screen, you can press Alt+H on your keyboard. This will display the respective transaction history of the last 10 transactions for the item.

  • Bulk-update column value:
    To update a column value for multiple items at once in the sales/purchase item grid, you can press Alt+R on your keyboard to apply the change to all other visible line items.
