Overview
The Disbursement Journal header section contains all common data for a disbursement transaction. It contains the bank account and transaction amount and is referred to as the control side.
Key Concepts
• | The Disbursement Journal makes assumptions on debits and credits. It assumes the Header amount is a credit, so when you enter a positive amount it saves it behind the scenes as a negative (a credit). |
