The banking journal
From Catalyst
Summary
This article describes how to journal takings into the bank.
- Cash and cheque receipts should be journalled into the bank when you are filling in the paying in book.
- Credit Card takings should be posted into the bank using either the bank statement or the Z-read from the credit card machine. Decide which one you are going to use and stick to it.
