The above process which u have told is correct. But i am giving some example for my question then u will give me answer.
My question
Item Name is: Stepler pins
I have entered this item under units of measurement "Numbers". And also passed some entries related to that item.
After that i want to change the units of measurement to that particular item as a "Boxes" inplace of "Numbers". How it is possible? If i will go to chage the units of measurement for that item "the curser will jumping the units at Stock item alteration window"

As per my knowledge, this feature is not given in tally , to change the unit of measurement in between. You will have to change all entries that you have made. If the volume is large then its better to create it as a separate item, and transfer the balance of old unit to a new unit via a Stock Transfer Vouche (Stock Journal)

Thank you very much for your solution Sri. CA-Tarun Maheshwari Sir. Presently we followed this practice which u have told. But this practice will take lot of time to change entire entries. Any way thanks for your solution

Thats why I suggest you to instead of changing the entire entries, you just pass a Stock Journal and transfer the balance of old ledger into the new ledger. This is a valid entry. Please ensure the authentication of top management in this regard. By using this way, you can save yourself from transferring the entire entries.
