Summary
Understanding warnings when posting to control accounts.
Description
We set up control accounts by default to ensure automatic and accurate recording of transaction details. For example, when you post a sales invoice, the system adds the total to the Trade Debtors account. It records VAT separately in the VAT on Sales account.
If you choose a control account while making a journal entry, a warning will pop up. It asks you to check if you chose the right account. This check helps you post correctly.
NOTE: Warning messages are for information purposes and you can still save the journal entry.
