The journal is the record keeping device in which you record transactions. It is a chronological record of transactions, where each individual transaction is called a journal entry. A journal entry is a list of the accounts and the amounts posted to each account within the entry.

 

When you first open the GL Create Journal Entries window, you are starting a Journal Entry Session. Journal entries are created and optionally posted during a session.

 

When the Journal Entry window is closed, unposted and voided entries are saved to the unposted entry file, and the session is completed. Unposted entries can be posted later on, and voided entries are removed when you close the period or year.

 

When you create a journal entry, the account balances are not immediately affected. You must post the journal entry in order to update the account balances.
