Tax Deducted at Source > DT Setup > Party Details, selecting Nature of Deduction for Rent
From Accounts payable module, create an invoice for Rent payment.

Whenever we create transaction entry of Invoice, prepayment or misc payment; automatically the adjustment entry on that document gets created with the TDS Amount in Adjustment entry screen, which is TDS entry.
Post the adjustment entry.
