Understanding G/L Receipts

When you receive a check that is not associated with a customer's account, such as a refund check from an insurance company or a rebate, you can enter the check by entering a G/L receipt on either the Standard Receipts Entry program (P03B102) or the Speed Receipts Entry program (P03B0001). A G/L receipt enables you to credit the appropriate general ledger account and include the amount in the bank deposit.

After you enter G/L receipts, you must post them to update the bank and G/L accounts.
