| How to handle Petty Cash |

In Chart of Accounts
Create a Petty Cash Cashbook. You will do this in the same way as you created
your Bank cashbook. Create an account in
the Chart of Accounts. Call it "Inter-Account Transfer - Petty Cash" or
something similar. In the Bank cashbook
allocate the money eg. R2000.00 that will be transferred to Petty Cash to the
account - Inter-Account Transfer - Petty Cash. This amount is seen as a
minus. In your Petty Cash
cashbook, add a transaction manually for R2000.00. This will be seen as a
positive as money is coming into the account. Allocate this to the same account
- Inter-Account Transfer - Petty Cash. (In the general Ledger, the account
Inter-Account Transfer - Petty Cash will always be
zero.)
