Convert to XML TDL Dear Developers, We are delighted to introduce a new featureConvert to XML TDL in Tally.Developer 9 Release 5.0. 'Convert to XML TDL' allows you to convert projects/files that are in TDL to XML TDL. This simplifies the generation of XML request, where TDL in XML format has to be included and sent to Tally.ERP 9 for appropriate response. » Application Any external application that is based on VB.Net or any mobile application can talk to Tally.ERP 9 i.e. it can push or pull data through XML requests and responses. Based on the requirement, these applications may access default reports, actions, functions and sometimes customised data from Tally.ERP 9. To enable this, a separate TDL code needs to be written that will be included within Tally.ERP 9 or it needs to be written in XML format to be included in the request sent. This enhancement of Release 5.0 will make the latter case very easier to execute. Let us see how this feature is implemented in Tally.Developer 9 - Step 1 Load the Project/files in TDL that needs to be converted to XML TDL Step 2 Right-click on the project/file that has to be converted to XML TDL in the Project Browser window → Select Convert to XML TDL The status of conversion and the location of the XML TDL file is displayed in the Build tab of the output window. In our next TDLByte, we will explain the concept in detail using a small case study. Stay Tuned!
