I can guide you create General Journal Entries in QuickBooks Desktop. This is the last resort for entering transactions in QuickBooks.

 

Here's how: 

 

  1. Open your QuickBooks. 
  2. Go to the Company menu and select Make General Journal Entries.
  3. Fill out the fields to create your journal entry. Make sure your debits equal your credits when you’re done.
  4. Lastly, click Save or Save & Close.

If you're in doubt, it would be best to follow the advice of your accountant to ensure that your book is accurate. 

 

I've also added how to run a Transaction Journal Report. This shows a more focused view of amounts and accounts not visible from the transaction itself.

 

Feel at ease to comment down below if you need clarifications. I'll keep an eye on your response. Have a pleasant day.
