I am project finance manager (taking care fund raising, financial modeling, etc.)  Now I want to take up new responsibilities like Accounting, taxation, etc.  

I want to know whether I can learn Tally directly or do I have to learn Accounts first?  By qualification I am engineer + MBA fin.

Thanks..
