Info

If you have enabled Allow Negatives (in Tools > Setups > Payment Type), you can select the Unbanked Funds GL account once you have selected the Payment By method. If you are refunding by cash or EFTPOS, this means your unbanked funds will show the refunds, and your banking in Jim2 will match your bank statement.
