JOURNAL ENTRIES<br />

STEPS: CREATE A JOURNAL ENTRY<br />

• The “Entity” is a customer, vendor, etc. that is related to this journal entry.<br />

Click on the field to activate the dropdown menu. This information will<br />

appear when you list the transactions for this entity or customer.<br />

• “Currency” is set when you set up your <strong>Magaya</strong> system (changes can be<br />

made in the Maintenance > Configuration). Each line can be in a different<br />

currency if you select an account that is in a different currency, but the<br />

amount shown in the Debit and Credit columns are shown in home<br />

currency:<br />

• “Exchange Rate” is used to enter the exchange rate if you create this<br />

journal entry in another currency. This is the exchange rate between the<br />

currency you have selected and the home currency that your <strong>Magaya</strong><br />

system is set up with.<br />

• The sum of all the Debits must be equal to the sum of all the Credits to<br />

keep the entry in balance. The system will not let you add an Entry that is<br />

not in balance.<br />

5. Click the OK button. The entry will be added to the list and posted to the<br />

appropriate accounts.<br />

Actions for Journal Entries:<br />

journal entry, create reports, print an entry or a batch, choose columns, or<br />
