Manage Tally Data in DBArtisan as a JDBC Source



Use wizards in DBArtisan to create a JDBC data source for Tally.

The CData JDBC Driver for Tally seamlessly integrates Tally data into database management tools like DBArtisan by enabling you to access Tally data as a database. This article shows how to create a JDBC source for Tally in DBArtisan. You can then edit data visually and execute standard SQL.

Integrate Tally Data into DBArtisan Projects

Follow the steps below to register Tally data as a database instance in your project:

  1. In DBArtisan, click Data Source -> Register Datasource.
  2. Select Generic JDBC.
  3. Click Manage.
  4. In the resulting dialog, click New. Enter a name for the driver and click Add. In the resulting dialog, navigate to the driver JAR. The driver JAR is located in the lib subfolder of the installation directory.
  5. In the Connection URL box, enter credentials and other required connection properties in the JDBC URL.

    Set the following connection properties to connect to Tally Instance:

    • Url: Set this to the URL for your Tally instance. For example: http://localhost:9000.

    Built-in Connection String Designer

    For assistance in constructing the JDBC URL, use the connection string designer built into the Tally JDBC Driver. Either double-click the JAR file or execute the jar file from the command-line.

    java -jar cdata.jdbc.tally.jar

    Fill in the connection properties and copy the connection string to the clipboard.

    Below is a typical connection string:

    jdbc:tally:Url='http://localhost:9000'
  6. Finish the wizard to connect to Tally data. Tally entities are displayed in the Datasource Explorer.

You can now work with Tally data as you work with any other database. See the driver help documentation for more information on the queries supported by the Tally API.
