Read journal entries and account balances

A journal entry records an accounting movement. The general ledger groups those movements by account.

Inspect an entry

1. Open the client’s Bookkeeping → Journal entries.
2. Choose the relevant entry.
3. Review the date, description, linked documents, accounts, and debit/credit amounts.
4. Check whether it is a draft or has been posted.

Inspect an account

Open General ledger, select an account, and choose the period. Review the movements behind the balance rather than checking only the total.

Drafts and posted entries

Drafts can be reviewed before posting. Posting records the entry in the books and requires the accounting checks to pass.

Posted entries are corrected through the permitted reversal flow rather than rewriting the original. A reversal records an offsetting entry and preserves the history. Ask the responsible bookkeeper to handle it.

Locked or closed periods can block changes. Review the period status before trying again.
