Actions – For Object and Context Manipulation

As already seen in previous sections, functions can operate on 3 object contexts, i.e., Requestor,
Current Object and Target object context. When a function is invoked, the target object context will
be the same as the current object context of the caller, i.e., the target object will be set to the
current object.
Here, we will discuss the various actions for manipulation of Object and Context


Action - NEW OBJECT

This action creates a new object from object specification and sets it as the target object. It takes
only Primary Object as the Parameter.
Syntax
NEW OBJECT: :
Where,
is the type of the object to be created, and
is the unique identifier of the object. If this is an existing object in DB, then the
further manipulations are performed on that object, else it creates a new object altogether.
Example:
01: NEW OBJECT:Stock Item :”My Stock Item”
This creates a new object in memory for Stock Item and sets it as the target object. Later, by using

other methods of this, the target object can be set and saved to the Tally DB.

Tally ODBC Driver Issue

Based on the Operating System bit (32/64) Tally has given the Exe. However the Micro Soft Excel application should be compatible to O/S and Tally.ERP9. Please note, On 64 Bit OS and 64Bit Tally.ERP9, a 32 Bit Excel application can act as a server with following steps. Please download from the Portal- ‘Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable’.  1. Install AccessDatabaseEngine_x64.exe Installed (steps given below separately.) 2. Excel 32 Bit (Excel 2003) Installed – and acting as server 3. Tally 64 Bit As Client –                      with ODBC Driver [ODBC: "Driver={Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls, *.xlsx, *.xlsm, *.xlsb)};DBQ=C:Tally.ERP 9 4.5 Build 7Sample Data.xls;"] and  Tally 32 Bit as Client – with ODBC Driver [ODBC : "Driver={Microsoft Excel Driver *.xls)};DBQ=Sample Data.xls"] This will resolve the problem by NOT upgrading MS Office to 64 bit. you can continue using 32 bit application of Excel.

LOG In function

During expression evaluation, intermediated values of the expression can be passed to calculator window and a log file ‘tdlfunc.log’ inside the application directory. This is very much helpful for debugging the expression. By default, logging is enabled inside the function. Syntax LOG : < Expression> Where, is the expression whose value needs to be passed to the calculator window. [Function : GetCurrentUserApprovelAmt] Parameter : PsvCurrentUser : String Variable : ApprovelAMT : Amount Return : Amount  10 : Walk Collection : ApprovelRequredColl  11 : If : $CustVAUser =  ##PsvCurrentUser  12 : Set : ApprovelAMT : $ApprovelAmount  12A : Log : ##ApprovelAMT  13 : End If  14 : End Walk  15 : Return : ##ApprovelAMT

Differences between Applications and DLLs

Differences between Applications and DLLs Even though DLLs and applications are both executable program modules, they differ in several ways. To the end user, the most obvious difference is that DLLs are not programs that can be directly executed. From the system's point of view, there are two fundamental differences between applications and DLLs: An application can have multiple instances of itself running in the system simultaneously, whereas a DLL can have only one instance. An application can own things such as a Stack, Global memory, File handles, and a message queue, but a DLL cannot.
