Cash Receipt Journals

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2
I need to post a cash receipt on to the bank account ledger. Normally we would post a refund journal against the relevant vendor, and everything would balance up correctly. However in this case, there is no vendor, essentially we have just had receipt into the bank account that doesn't need to be allocated against anything.
 
I don't know how we can post the receipt so the bank account GL account and the bank account ledger match. The balancing account seems to be the issue but without any other GL code for this receipt to be allocated against I am stuck.

    First, any time you post a transaction against the bank account card, the system will automatically post it to the bank account GL as well. If your bank account posting group is tied to the correct GL account you're good there, as long as you don't post anything directly to the bank account GL. 
     
    Second, are you using the balancing account as the bank account GL? If thats the case, then its not correct and that's where your problem is. In accounting every transaction needs to have a debit and a credit. If your debit is going to the bank account, the credit needs to be booked against another account. For example, vendor prepaids, or something along those lines.

    you need to specify what the received money is for. If it's from a customer, you could just post if against that customer, balance with bank account. BC will create an open payment entry in customer ledger entry. Later, you could apply that payment to a purchase invoice. 
     
    depending on what it is, you need to set up the journal line correctly.
