Apple Mac2014 - Using a General Journal

QuickBooks for Mac 2014 User’s Guide 57
To move a transaction to a different account:
1 Open the register where you mistakenly entered the transaction.
2 Double-click the transaction.
3 Select the correct account from the Account pop-up menu.
Using a general journal
If you're familiar with adjusting entries in a general journal, you can use the General Journal Entry window to enter
debits and credits.
Important: QuickBooks provides the general journal for bookkeepers who know debits from credits and who prefer
to enter certain transactions in a general journal. If you are unfamiliar with how a general journal works, use the
Transaction Center or the icons on the Home Page instead.
To make a journal entry:
1 Choose Banking > Make General Journal Entries.
Note: You can also make journal entries using the Transaction Center.
2 To enter a new entry, click the "New Entry..." on the left panel or click the + at the bottom of the list.
To edit a check, select a check in the list on the left panel. (If you don't see this list, click the Left
View.)
3 If you want the date of the transaction to be different than today's date, change the date that
QuickBooks filled in.
