The Bank Register allows you to quickly and efficiently enter all your transactions for asset accounts with bank privileges or liability accounts with credit card privilege from one window. You can also view a complete transaction history for a selected date range of each of these accounts and open the source window of each transaction for more detailed information.
The data entry area appears in the bottom portion of the window and the top portion displays the transactions in a scrollable list.
Note: The Bank Register window is a convenient tool for data entry, not the actual transaction window.
When you enter a Spend Money transaction in the Bank Register window, it is as if you had opened and entered the information in the Spend Money window. The Spend Money window has fields for more information than does the Bank Register. You can click the Split button in the Bank Register window to open the Spend Money window and enter more detailed information. |
Note: Entering transactions in the13th period
To enter a transaction for the 13th period, enter an asterisk (*) in the Date field before you enter the transaction's actual date. |
The list in the upper left corner of the Bank Register window displays only asset accounts with bank privileges and liability accounts with credit card privilege.
Warning: Spend Money transactions can't be used to close purchases
If you've recorded orders or purchases for suppliers using the Purchases command centre, in order to make payments to the orders or purchases, you can enter the payment using the Pay Bill type in the Bank Register window or use the Pay Bills window or the Purchases Register window. |
