The General Ledger function in Jim2 is to record and hold balances for transactions created through Jim2.

 

Info

As data is always available and historical reports can be generated at any time, GL accounts cannot be hidden, deleted or made inactive if the account balance is anything other than zero.

 

When finishing a purchase order or invoicing a job, a general ledger transaction is created to update the appropriate accounts and their balances in order to record that a particular action took place within the business.

 

Quality
