100 Top Tips for business

Question:  Mike, we own Sage 100 ERP (formally Sage MAS 90, MAS 200) and in the past the CPA and I have had to make a single sided journal entry, it happens so seldom, I don't recall how to do it.  Please assist me.

Answer:  

First step:  You need to make sure you have security enabled to do a one sided entry.  Under Library Master>Main>Roles> Security events the “allow out of balance journal entrys” under General Ledger should be checked.
