PURPOSE

This document shows the procedures on viewing, maintaining, and importing cash and ledger balance.

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?

Cash balances are required in order for a user to have an overview of cash flow projection for one entity or the whole group. Without the opening cash, the projection will not be accurate.

The ledger balance is used as a reference to compare the balance amount between the actual cash account and in the ledger.

PROCEDURE

1. Select Cash Management > Actual > Cash Balance. The Actual Cash screen displays.
