General Ledger Entry

[vochoa]

We key in our expenses for the month as a General Ledger entry. The totals are correct in the General Ledger, but when I look at the General Ledger reports I see a beginning total and an ending total - no debits and credits.

The ending total is correct, but I would like to see the entries that got me there.

Also, I took over the books for an existing company. How do I enter historical balances on a month-to-month basis so that I have comparable history?

HELP!

vochoa,

In response to the historical entries, I just got our company up and running in Peachtree 6 months ago. I went in and added everything, vendor/customer, etc. from the beginning. It tool a long time, and I am still not done, but all my history from a year ago is now in the system. I am new to Peachtree, but I think that will help you out. I eventually want to be able to have a budget out there, so all the old information needed to be inputted. If you put everthing in the GL, you can run a general ledger report and get each account up individually. I do that alot.

Hope this helped out! If you have any more questions, let me know.
