Issues Resolved with Tally Prime 2.0
GSTR-1 returns with HSN Summary

Party details in exported Ledger Group Outstandings
The issue wherein the details of some parties were missing when you exported the Ledger Group Outstandings report to an MS Excel file is now resolved.
Voucher Register with Verification Status
In earlier versions of Tally Prime, in the Voucher Register under Verification of Vouchers, the transactions did not appear for the selected Verification Status. This issue will not come starting Tally Prime 2.0.
e-Mailing of Ledger and Group Outstandings
Earlier, if you sent a Ledger and Group Outstanding to your parties via e-mail, parties that didn’t have any outstanding amount received a blank report. Tally Prime 2.0 resolves this issue.
GST calculation in sales transactions
Another issue resolved with Tally Prime 2.0 is that when you recorded a sales transaction using a Voucher Class, Tally rounded off the tax value with three decimals to two decimals. Thus, the calculated tax amount was lesser by 1 paisa.
Terms of Delivery in Sales Invoice
When you altered a Sales Invoice and provided the Order No, only the first line was visible in Terms of Delivery. This issue is now resolved.
TCS transactions and reports
“TDL storage error” showed up in TCS transactions and reports, when the Use TCS Allocations was enabled in the sales transaction. Tally Prime 2.0 solves this.
The issue during uploading Delivery Note on the e-waybill portal
You got an error while uploading a Delivery Note to the e-waybill portal. This occurred if you had selected Others as Sub Type while entering the Delivery Note voucher. This bug is now cleared.
Ledger change in a columnar report
Another issue resolved is that Tally was not able to refresh the report details after you changed the ledger in a columnar report.
Unable to link TCS Debit Note to TCS Receipt voucher
You couldn’t link TCS Debit Notes to TCS Receipt vouchers. This issue is also now solved.
TRN in Sales invoice printed in Arabic
