Power BI Dashboard for Tally ERP Integration in Manufacturing Firm

Our Client

  • A mid-sized manufacturing company specializing in industrial machinery and tools, headquartered in Gujarat, India.
  • With over 800 employees and a wide range of products catering to the automotive, textiles, and construction industries, the company has been a key player in the Indian market for over three decades.

Problem Statement

Despite its operational success, the company faced multiple challenges in managing its financial and inventory data due to the limitations of its existing Tally ERP system. The client relied heavily on Tally statistics for accounting, inventory management, and payroll functions.
    • Limited Reporting Capabilities :

      Tally provided basic financial reports, but the client struggled to generate in-depth, custom reports that would allow them to track key metrics, such as profitability by product line or region, without manual intervention.

    • Time-Consuming Data Export :

      The company’s finance team spent hours exporting data from Tally into Excel for further analysis, resulting in inefficiencies and potential human errors in critical reports.

    • Disconnected Data Sources:

      Tally only provided insight into financials, but the client’s manufacturing, sales, and inventory data were scattered in separate systems. This made it difficult for them to create a holistic view of their business performance.

    • Inconsistent Data Accuracy:

      Manual data handling and reporting resulted in frequent errors, which impacted the firm’s ability to forecast inventory needs and manage production schedules effectively.

    • Slow Decision-Making:

      The lack of real-time, actionable insights from Tally delayed decision-making, particularly around inventory levels, sales trends, and financial forecasting.

Our Solution

Our team of Power BI developers worked closely with the client to address these specific challenges by developing a custom Power BI dashboard. The solutions we provided were designed to not only step up Tally’s capabilities but also integrate their other systems for a unified data-driven view.

  • Custom Dashboard Integration with Tally:  We integrated Tally ERP with Power BI, automating data extraction and providing a seamless flow of financial data into a user-friendly dashboard. This enabled the client to access real-time reports without manual exports.

  • In-Depth Analytical Reports: We designed custom reports that provided deeper insights into key areas such as profitability by product, sales performance across regions, and production efficiency. These reports were easily accessible and customizable for the finance and operations teams.

  • Automated Data Refreshes: To avoid outdated data and minimize manual intervention, we implemented automated data refresh schedules in Power BI, ensuring that the client had access to the most up-to-date financial and operational information.

  • Ongoing Training & Support:Our team provided extensive training sessions to ensure that key stakeholders understood how to use the Power BI dashboards effectively. We also offered ongoing support to address any issues and implement further improvements as needed.
