Copying Accounting Journals

Some transactions, for instance director’s loan payments, require a journal entry rather than an income or expense. Some of these happen regularly and rather than type it out again, you can use the Copy Journal function to add them more quickly. Open the journal and look for the Copy Journal button in the top right-hand corner. All the details will be filled in, you simply need to put in a new date.

If the drawings, loan payments or anything else that you are entering via a journal occurs on a regular basis (eg monthly), you can set up repeating journals. There is a guide to adding these repeating journals here.
