How to Create a Journal Entry in Muhasib ERP

Overview

This guide will help you record an authorized balanced journal with complete supporting evidence.

Muhasib posts a balanced journal to the selected general-ledger accounts.

Who can do this

You need access to Journal Entry add plus access to affected accounts, company, and period.

Before you start

Have date, reference, narration, debit/credit accounts and amounts, evidence, preparer, approver, and confirmation that no source workflow should be used.

Before saving, check that the correct company is open and that you have permission to complete this task.

Where to find it

Back Office → Muhasib Financials → Journal Entry.

Create a Journal Entry

Step 1: Start a new journal and enter date/reference

Step 2: Add clear narration describing purpose and evidence

Step 3: Add each debit and credit line with the correct account and dimensions

Step 4: Confirm total debits equal total credits

Step 5: Review period, account eligibility, tax/party implications, and approval

Step 6: Save once and retain the journal number

Check your work

Compare and Confirm the journal document to evidence, Journal Ledger, Account Ledgers, and Trial Balance.

Take a moment to check your work before closing the window. This small check can save time later.

If something goes wrong

  • Do not use journals to bypass customer, supplier, stock, tax, or payment workflows.
  • Search by reference before retrying.
