✅ Godown in TallyPrime 

🏬 Godown (Location) in TallyPrime

A Godown refers to the place where stock items are stored.
It can be a:

  • Warehouse
  • Shop
  • Showroom

You can create single or multiple Godowns in TallyPrime.
Godowns (Locations) help you manage stock in different storage places.

You can also create a hierarchy for:

By default, TallyPrime maintains an internal Godown called
Main Location, where all stock is stored automatically.
