Whenever you want to do any transaction into (or out of) a General Ledger account that is also a Bank Account you must use Payments or Receipts. The only exception to this is the Bank Transfer facility.
These are the only transactions that have an effect on the Cashbook. Any other transactions will affect the General Ledger and not the Cashbook and this will cause your Bank Reconciliation to be out.
1. In General Ledger module defaults establish the links between bank accounts; this can include bank accounts in other companies.
2. You can then transfer funds and automatically record these transactions in the respective companies Cashbooks and General Ledgers. Select ‘Bank transfer’.
3. Then select the accounts and relevant companies to transfer funds from and to.
4. Then enter the amount of the transfer and a description.
5. Select enter and the transaction will be recorded in the respective Cashbooks. You can then enter a further transaction or exit from this function.
