QuickBooks: easy-to-use general ledger accounting software
Having a neatly managed general ledger is the backbone of any financially sound and profitable business. As the centre of a business’s financial recordings the general ledger is used to record every transaction that occurs, typically via a two-column system representing debits (left) and credits (right). It’s this double entry (debit and credit) format that gives each general ledger account a “T” shape. All the financial activities of the company are pulled together and recorded within this nominal ledger, allowing for easy referencing, analysis and auditing.
In the past, general ledger accounting was a manual system. However, with the advancements made in technology, it’s now common business practice for the data to be stored in an electronic format. Prior to this, businesses often incurred great expense by outsourcing their accounting to professionals who charged exorbitant fees and provided minimal recording and reporting. The computerisation of the general ledger has given way to an ease of entry, reduced resource expenditure and detailed, efficient reporting.
