Hello, Liftco. 

 

Thank you for reaching out to the Community. The concern that you have right now usually happen when you created the journal entry and used the Undeposited Funds as an account. 

 

If you don't want the journal entry to appear on your Record deposit list, make sure to use any account aside from Undeposited funds. 

 

  1. Go to the Company menu and select Make General Journal Entries.
  2. Fill out the fields to create your journal entry. It's important to ensure the debits and credits match during this step.
  3. Select Save & Close

 

Since you've already created a journal entry, I recommend to consult for an accountant for further steps to be taken.

My general entry is going to deposit only on the increase.  It never did that before. It is called CLIENT POSITION WHITE OAK:FUNDS IN USE. Please help me fix this?

I appreciate you for bringing this matter to the Community, Dordiano. We can review your journal entries to ensure that all entries are posted accurately to the correct accounts. Let me provide some additional information to help you with this matter.

 

Reviewing these entries can help identify any discrepancies or errors that caused the deposits to be recorded only on increases. It is also helpful to consult with an accountant who can guide you through the entire process and ensure that your accounting practices are correct.

This will happen if you use Undeposited Funds on your Journal.  Anything you record there will be seen as waiting to be deposited.  So, if you don't want that, avoid using that account on a Journal.
