Question

How do I record journal entries in Reckon Accounts?

Answer

In Reckon Accounts, journal entries are made in the General Journal Entry window. This option is available for accountants or people who prefer the traditional system of accounting in which transactions are entered into a general journal. If you are not an accountant, you might use the general journal to transfer amounts from one income or expense account to another, or from one class to another.


In order to complete your year-end activities, your accountant may instruct you to record miscellaneous journal entries in Reckon Accounts. Your accountant can provide you with specific information if this step is necessary.


Note: When making journal entries in Reckon Accounts, you need to know which account receives the debit and which account receives the credit side of the transaction.
