Article summary


Automatic Entries Tab

The Automatic Entries tab provides access to twelve utilities that can make repetitive journal entries or make Fund-specific entries to multiple Funds.

Several of the automatic entry routines are specially tailored to the bookkeeping procedures of charitable organizations. Along with the automatic journal entry from the outer modules, they make it possible to scale financial operations to accommodate a very large number of component Funds.

Note: See Working with Automatic Entries and Using Asset Rebalancing for more information.
