GL account cards

A G/L account is used to record all the financial transactions in Dynamics NAV. An account is a unique record for each type of asset, liability, revenue, and expense.

Now, let's take a look at a G/L card to see what kind of information is stored in Dynamics NAV. To open a G/L card, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to Departments/Financial Management/General Ledger/Chart of Account.
  2. You will see a list of G/L accounts. Find 11600 Bank Operations Cash.
  3. Double-click on it to open its card.

The following screenshot shows the G/L account card for 11600 Bank Operation Cash Account:

The chart of accounts window displays all the accounts, and the G/L account card window has a card for each line in the chart of accounts, so you can work with only one account at a time.

G/L accounts are always referred to by their No., which is a code that identifies them. We can also provide the following information:

  • The General tab: This is used for information about G/L account number, name, and account type (balance sheet of income account)
  • The Posting tab: This is used for information about the general posting group and tax posting group
  • The Consolidation tab: This is used for information about the consolidation debit or credit account and the translation method
  • The Cost Accounting tab: This is used to show with which cost account G/L is linked

The G/L card window includes the following actions on the ribbon:

General Journal

General journals are used to post to general ledger accounts and other accounts such as bank, customer, vendor, and fixed asset accounts. Posting with a general journal always creates entries on general ledger accounts.

The following are the types of journal entries:

  • General Journal: This is used to post simple expense and revenue transactions.
  • Standard Journal: This is used to save the transaction that you might need to reuse again. Standard journals are used for time saving.
  • Recurring Journal: This is used for periodic or recurring transaction for expenses and revenue.
  • Reversing Journal: This is used to cancel or reverse the wrong posted transaction.

General Journal

Follow these steps to enter and post in the General Journal:

  1. Go to General Journal (Departments/Financial Management/General Ledger/General Journal).
  2. Enter the Posting Date.
  3. Select the G/L account as Account Type and select 61100 (advertising) account.
  4. Enter 100 in the Amount field.
  5. And then select cash account as offset account.
  6. Post the General Journal.
