Ledgers

Ledgers are used to record and total financial transactions by fund. Typical ledgers list transactions by fund with money received and money disbursed in separate columns along with a beginning balance and an ending balance.
There are also single purpose ledgers. These ledgers separate monies recieved from monies disbursed - so you have a Cash Receipts Ledger and a Cash Disbursements Ledger. Cash Receipts ledgers let you easily see how much money you've received, when you received it, and how (or from whom) you received it. Cash Disbursement Ledgers let you easily see your expenses - how much you've paid out to whom, when, and for what purpose.
