Registers
Cash in and out, day by day.
The cash book carries every cash receipt and payment, day by day: a guest who settles in cash at checkout, the restaurant’s cash bills, a deposit for a stay next month, a cash payment to the laundry vendor. Each day opens and closes on its balance.
- The journal. Adjustments and non-cash entries, in one register.
- Trial balance. Every account’s balance on any date you pick.
Adjustments and non-cash entries go to the journal.
