    Payment Journal for paying vendors

    Purchase Journal rarely used accept for initial AP load but can be used for entering vendor invoices

    Sales Journal rarely used accept for initial AR load but can be used for entering customer invoices

    General Journal is used for accounting entries

    Cash Receipts Journals can be used for customer payments.

    Hi,

    As well as the awesome information already provided, I wrote this blog that might be useful for you. It takes a deep dive into how the journals work.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks
