Description: How to change the Billed to Date without affecting the A/R or G/L.

 

Note: When making an entry in the General Journal a credit increases revenue while a debit decreases revenue

 

Step 1 - Enter a two line entry in the General Journal. The first line would go against 1) a project and 2) an appropriate Billed Revenue General Ledger account for either a credit (a negative amount) or debit amount. (Fig.1)
