Nominal Ledger/Trial Balance

View - Accounting - Financials - Nominal Ledger

The Trial balance provides an overview of every item that has been entered into each N/C during the active accounting year. By using the total balance for each N/C, you can go further into the figures and look at the distribution for each period, right down to the individual journal lines.

You can go even further and view information about the journal entry through other modules, by using a number of buttons. Which buttons are active depends on what N/C you select.

Below is a description of how you can start in the Trial balance tab and work your way further into the journal/period structure. You can also set necessary selections directly through each tab.
