I am trying to record an expense in a voucher, but it's not showing in the office maintenance account. How can I link the expense to office maintenance?
If you've entered an expense in a voucher on BUSY software but it's not showing up under the Office Maintenance account, there are a few steps you can take to resolve the issue:
Step 1: First, make sure that the expense account you're using is listed under the Office Maintenance account group (if you've created an Office Maintenance account group in BUSY).
Step 2: Next, you'll need to pass a journal entry. To do this, go to the Transaction menu and click on Journal, then select the Add option.
Step 3: Here, debit the expense account and credit it to the appropriate account. This should allow it to show up correctly in your profit and loss or any other accounting report.
If you're using the Office Expense account directly, you'll need to debit that master directly in the journal voucher as an expense and credit it to another account. This should ensure that the effect is shown correctly.
