Ledger

Ledger

The Ledger can display all transactions containing a specified account, a group of accounts, or all accounts.

For example, selecting the "Cash at Bank" account from the "Display" popup button displays each transaction involving the "Cash at Bank" account. Selecting the the "Asset" group from the "Display" popup button displays all transactions for all asset accounts.

Ledger Tab

You can also filter the transactions by date by entering dates into the "From" and "to" fields.

Ledger headings:

  • The "Jnl" column indicates whether a transaction is a "Receipts & Sales", "Payments & Purchases", or "General Journal" entry.
  • The "Description" column shows each transaction's contact and memo information.
Ledger amounts:
  • The "Opening Balance --" amount is the account balance on the date specified in the "From" field.
  • The "Closing Balance --" amount is the account balance on the date specified in the "to" field.
  • The "Net Movement" is the difference between the "Opening Balance" and "Closing Balance"
  • The "Totals" are the total debits and total credits of the displayed transactions
