I'm wondering if the current procedure of creating a journal entry upon check writing is appropriate. I've been wrestling with this because if I write a check, a journal entry is made, and then when I import the checking account statement, I have a duplicate transaction.
I might create the check as a note, and then provide the ability to create a journal entry with a simple optional click. Otherwise, it will just remain a note. The journal entry and general ledger would link with the check note after the check has been cached, and since they are two separate entities, the dates would not conflict. I think I like that idea.
Any other thoughts? Comments are welcome.
Thanks for getting back to me.
1st - I forgot my password to the forums. TomP & TomP2 are the same people. Please email me my password to the TomP registered email.
2nd - I think loading the transactions and auto matching them by check number would be a good idea. Perhaps highlightings where amounts differ. I'm not an accounting wiz. I'm a programmer by trade. A check box - yup it's in the bank - would also do the trick. Followed by a ballancing report.
3rd - The line I'm reffering to is the page address that's at the bottom of the invoice.
4th - On invoices, it's really setup for items being sold. Not hours being works. I do both. Also it would be good if individual line items could be dated.
date, number of hours, rate of pay, line total. I think what it need is a couple of different field choices for invoices.
I'm planning to try this with a small group I do some work with before trying with my business.
thanks,
Tom
Hi TomP - I actually use the invoices for hours worked as well as hosting, but I attach a spreadsheet for the time work analysis.
PBooks is still actively developed, a stable version 1 is coming up soon, but to keep it stable, all future features will go into the next version, and only bug fixes will go into version one.
