100 Voucher Entry Examples for Service-Based Companies in Tally

In a service-based company, day-to-day financial activities—like receiving payments, paying expenses, and adjusting accounts—are recorded using vouchers in Tally.ERP 9 or TallyPrime.
Voucher entries ensure that every business transaction is documented properly for accounting accuracy, GST compliance, and financial reporting.

There are several types of vouchers in Tally, including:

• Payment Vouchers – For expenses, purchases, and other outgoing payments.
• Receipt Vouchers – For recording income, customer payments, or advances received.
• Journal Vouchers – For adjustments, provisions, or non-cash transactions.
• Contra Vouchers – For internal cash/bank transfers.
• Sales & Purchase Vouchers – For billing customers or recording vendor invoices.

Below is a comprehensive list of 100 sample voucher entries for a service-based company.

Tally-style ledger entry format with:

Date | Voucher Type | Debit Ledger | Credit Ledger | Amount | Narration

We’ll group by type so it’s easier to follow but still have 100 unique entries.
