Process Recurring Journal Entries

Table of Contents

Overview

After entering all recurring entries and verifying the accuracy of each, it is still necessary to process them. Processing the entries will officially make them known to the system; everything else is just the set up. It is only after processing that the Journal Entries will affect the Balance Sheet and Income Statement. These journal entries will still need to be processed every month, however because they are set up as recurring you will not have to re-enter them.
