Tally Prime 5.0 has introduced several updates to enhance user productivity, but among the most valuable are the hidden keyboard shortcuts that streamline your work. While features like GSTR-1 filing and ITC reconciliation grabbed the spotlight, these lesser-known shortcuts can improve your workflow significantly. Let’s dive into two hidden features that you’ll find particularly useful in Tally Prime 5.0.
1. Alt + 1: Close Tally Instantly
Closing Tally at the end of a session or when you’re finished with your work is now quicker than ever. With the Alt + 1 shortcut, you can close the entire Tally application instantly. Previously, users had to manually navigate through menus to exit Tally, which could be time-consuming if you’re in a hurry.
How to Use:
- Simply press Alt + 1 from any screen within Tally Prime 5.0, and the application will shut down immediately.
This new shortcut is a real timesaver, especially for users who manage multiple sessions or need to close the software frequently.
2. Alt + 3: Jump to Desktop
Navigating back to the Tally desktop has never been easier, thanks to the Alt + 3 shortcut. Whether you’re working in a report, ledger, or any other module, you can now return to the Tally desktop with a single keystroke.
How to Use:
- No matter where you are in the software, press Alt + 3 and you’ll instantly be taken back to the Tally desktop.
This shortcut helps users who need to frequently switch between different modules, offering a smooth and efficient way to get back to the home screen.
Conclusion
Tally Prime 5.0 is full of useful features, and these hidden shortcuts — Alt + 1 to close Tally and Alt + 3 to jump to the desktop — are designed to make your workflow even more efficient. These small but powerful improvements can save you time and make managing your tasks smoother. Try them out in your daily operations and experience the benefits!
