Tally Connector

The Tally Connector brings your client's trial balance from TallyPrime into the software. It runs in your browser, on the computer where TallyPrime is open, and it only reads.

What it reads, and what it never does

It reads

  • The list of companies open in TallyPrime
  • The trial balance, for this year and last year
  • The Tally groups
  • The stock summary
  • Bills outstanding

It never

  • We cannot change anything in your TallyThe connector only sends Tally export requests, which read data. It has no instruction that creates, alters or deletes a voucher or a ledger.
  • Our servers cannot reach your TallyOnly the connector in Chrome on your own computer talks to Tally. Nothing on our servers connects to it.

Privacy: The connector accepts messages only from autofs.in, runs only read-only exports, and works only after it is paired with your account.

Set it up in four steps

  1. Add the Tally Connector from the Chrome Web Store, in Chrome or Microsoft Edge on the computer where TallyPrime runs.
  2. Press F1 (Help) → Settings → Connectivity. Set "TallyPrime acts as" to Both and Port to 9000, then restart TallyPrime. 9000 is TallyPrime's default port. If you use another, set the same port under Settings > Tally Connector in the software. If antivirus or a firewall asks, allow TallyPrime.
  3. In TallyPrime press F3 (Select Company, Alt+F3 on older releases) and open the company.
  4. In the software, open the year and choose Pull from Tally. The first time, click Link connector to link the extension to your account.

Before you start

  • A Windows computer with TallyPrime and the client's company.
  • Chrome or Microsoft Edge on that same computer.
  • An account in the software (the Free plan is enough).

If it does not connect
What the software showsWhat to check
Not installed
  1. Add the Tally Connector from the Chrome Web Store, in Chrome or Microsoft Edge on the computer where TallyPrime runs.
  2. Come back to the software's tab and reload it.
Installed, not linked
  1. In the software, open Settings > Tally Connector and click Link connector.
  2. Linking ties the connector in this browser to your sign-in, so only you can pull from this computer. You do it once per browser.
In use in another tab
  1. Finish in the other tab of the software, or click Disconnect in the connector's popup.
  2. Then link again from the tab you want to use: Settings > Tally Connector > Link connector.
Still linked to an earlier sign-in
  1. Click the puzzle-piece icon in the browser's toolbar, open Tally Connector and click Disconnect.
  2. Go back to the software's tab: it links again by itself.
Linked to a different account
  1. Click Disconnect in the connector's popup.
  2. Signed in to the account you want to use, link it again: Settings > Tally Connector > Link connector.
Linked to your account, not in this browser

Your account is linked in another browser or on another computer. In the software, open Settings > Tally Connector and click Link this browser; the other stays linked.

Out of date or damaged
  1. Update or reinstall the Tally Connector from the Chrome Web Store.
  2. Then reload the software's tab.
TallyPrime did not answer
  1. Open TallyPrime on this computer.
  2. Press F1 (Help) → Settings → Connectivity. Set "TallyPrime acts as" to Both and Port to 9000, then restart TallyPrime.
  3. Press Esc until TallyPrime shows the Gateway (an open report or question blocks the connector).
  4. If antivirus or a firewall asks, allow TallyPrime.

TallyPrime is open, but no company is loaded
  1. In TallyPrime press F3 (Select Company, Alt+F3 on older releases) and open the company.
  2. Then check again.
TallyPrime is busy

Another request from this browser is still with TallyPrime. Wait a moment and try again; if another tab of the software is pulling, let it finish first.

Another program answered on the Tally port
  1. The port in TallyPrime (F1 → Settings → Connectivity) must match the port under Settings > Tally Connector in the software: 9000 unless you changed it.
  2. If another program uses that port, give TallyPrime a different one and enter it in both places.
More than one Tally is open

Running more than one Tally? In Tally, give each one a different port (F1 → Settings → Connectivity), then set that port under Settings > Tally Connector > Tally port in the software to choose which one to work with.

Larger than the Tally Connector can carry

The connector carries up to 25 MB in one go. Write to support@autofs.in and we will help you pull the company.

Not available on this device

Pulling from Tally works only in Chrome or Microsoft Edge on the computer where TallyPrime runs, not on a phone or tablet.

Still stuck? Write to support@autofs.in with a screenshot of Settings > Tally Connector.
