First it's working, could create, alter any stock items, but then alter is not working.

Would like to know how to edit (alter) stock item name in tally using a XML request

Answer 1

If you send same XML twice it won't work

as when you send First time, stock item name "0000" is altered to "newname"

If you want to alter same stock item again then you need use "newname" in attribute

<STOCKITEM NAME="newname" ACTION="alter">

Is there any option in tally that should be changed for altering stock item names using xml request?
