Difference Entry

Difference Entry According to accounting principles, credit must always exceed debit in an accounting entry. If not, the system does permit the filing of an accounting transaction, which halts the ledger posting process. When an accounting entry is saved in ERPNext, the system checks to see if the debit and credit are adding up.

You must update a different amount in one more row, choose a different account, and make the entry balanced. Instead, you can change the amount directly in one of the Account's rows.

When the "Create Difference Entry" button is clicked, a new row with the difference amount is added to the Journal Entry Accounts table. Editing that row will allow you to choose the proper Account.

Debit and credit entries will be tallied when you choose an account under "new row," and you should be able to submit Journal Entri correctly.
