Accounting Software | Journal Entries
JEs with the source attached. Recurring, reversal, approval-routed.
Manual JEs carry the source document. Recurring JEs run on a schedule (monthly accruals, quarterly provisions). Reversals post next period automatically. Period-lock enforces; approval routing enforces material thresholds.

Journal Entries FAQ
What buyers ask.
Can we post recurring JEs (rent accrual, depreciation)?
Yes. Recurring JEs run on a schedule (monthly, quarterly, annual). The template carries the GL coding, dimensions and reason. Each posting is captured as a separate JE with its own audit trail. Reversal next period is built in.
How do we handle period-end reversal entries?
Mark the JE as 'reversal in next period' at posting; the reverse JE auto-posts on the first day of the next period. For one-off manual reversals, click 'reverse' on the source JE; the reverse posts with a link back.
Can we do mass upload of JEs?
Yes. CSV / Excel bulk upload is supported with line-level validation (GL exists, dimensions valid, balance condition met). Errors surface per row before posting.
What about intercompany JEs?
Intercompany JEs auto-create both sides (sender and receiver) with matching reference. Mismatches surface on a dashboard. Eliminations run at consolidation.
