If the account you need to adjust is not listed in the client trial balance, you can easily add a new account during the Journal Entry process, as per the below instructions:
-
Complete steps 1 through to 6 of Processing a Journal topic above;
-
In the dropdown box select the Create New Account option;
-
Type in an account number for the new account;
-
Provide the new account with an appropriate description;
-
Select the account type from the drop down menu;
-
Next, assign the new account to a lead schedule;
-
Continue filling out the remaining fields as you would to process a normal Adjusting journal;
-
Your new account and adjustment have now been completed.
TIP: If you do not know the clients account number required, use a unique account number to avoid duplication with the client's accounts (e.g. AUDIT1)
