Reporting
A journal entry is a manual debit-and-credit posting used to adjust the ledger when a source document did not create the entry automatically.

Journal entries keep the books honest when automation cannot express the economics — prepaid allocations, owner contributions, or a coding correction.
Every journal should have a reason, a balanced debit and credit, and a property when the activity is property-specific.
Unitz records journals in the same ledger as automated posts. See Financial Intelligence.
The chart of accounts is the structured list of ledger accounts used to classify income, expenses, assets, and liabilities.
The general ledger is the complete set of accounts where every debit and credit is recorded.
A trial balance lists every account balance to confirm total debits equal total credits before you issue statements.
