How does a General Ledger work?
Double EntryThink of a set of books containing a chart of accounts as similar to a cabinet of files. Into this cabinet we post transactions. Each transaction has a debit and a credit.
By always posting both sides of the transaction we ensure that the books aways stay in balance. This process of always including debits and credits is known as double entry. Internally TurboCASH keep debts as positive numbers and credits as negative numbers. They will give the apparent paradox where sales are reflected as a negative number or a credit.
Batches, Journals, Cash Books
Batches are groups of transactions that together balance in every period defined. While transactions are entered into the journals or cashbooks. Once finalised these bathces are posted to the general ledger, where they are no longer editable. A unique feature of TurboCASH is that these batches can be unposted, re-edited and posted again.
A unique feature of TurboCASH is that a batch can be reversed, re-edited and reposted.
The accounting equation
In the accounting equation,
assets = equity + liabilities
Before each batch is posted into the general ledger, the accounting equation is in balance. After every batch is posted the accounting equation remains in balance. If a batch is reversed the accounting equation remains in balance.
