Cash Account Details

Form ID: (CA303000)

By using this form, you can view all activity on any cash account during the date range you specify. You can view summary information or the complete list of cash-related transactions performed on the account during this period. The information is collected from cash management, general ledger, accounts payable, and accounts receivable forms.

Also, you can quickly add a new cash transaction and release or clear selected cash transactions.
