How do I enter cash receipts, transfers, and deposits?

Create a journal entry in the CRJE journal.

In addition to manually written checks, you also need to ensure that all of your cash receipts, bank deposits, and transfers are also entered into a journal.

If you're using Caselle Cash Receipting, you don't need to worry about recording your cash receipts. You can manage them with Cash Receipting and then update the receipts to the General Ledger.

If you're not using Cash Receipting, you will need to manually enter your cash receipts into General Ledger along with your bank deposits and transfers.

Why should I use the CRJE journal instead of the CR journal?

Receipts from Cash Receipting are updated to the CR journal. Any receipts, deposits, or transfers that you manually enter are recorded in the CRJE journal to keep them separate from Cash Receipting transactions. If you're not using Cash Receipting, you can enter your receipts, deposits, and transfers in the CR journal instead of the CRJE journal.
