Overview
Journals
Automatically Generated Journal Entries
When creating, for example, an invoice or credit note within Printcost, the relevant journal entries are automatically generated and are grouped into batches. A financial period may contain any number of batches, and a batch may contain any number of journal entries.
Manual Journal Entries
For transactions that are not initiated within Printcost, e.g., bank fees, you can manually create journal entries for these transactions.
Ledgers
When a batch's journal entries are complete and correct, the batch of journal entries can be posted to the general ledger in one go.
Note: Within a batch, individual entries cannot be posted, however, a batch can consist of only one journal entry.
Print Reports
Printcost comes with a standard set of reports that you can use to report on your company's:
- trial balance
- financial performance, and
- financial position
Other reports can be created specifically for your company. For any special reports that you require, please contact the Printcost team.
Depending on how Printcost has been set up for your company, financial reports can be broken down on a branch-by-branch basis or department basis. This means you can use the same general ledger within Printcost to compare the financial performance and position of each branch or department within your company, as well as the company as a whole.
