Understanding the three entry modes

In order to offer users maximum flexibility, Acomba X offers three entry modes.

Each entry mode has its advantages. We invite you to look at the table below in order to determine which one is most suitable for your work methods.

Comparative table of accounting entry modes
How to change the entry mode Per periode Per date Per date in real time
Possibility of making entries in all periods Yes, as long as the period is not closed Yes, as long as the period is not closed Yes, the periods of the current fiscal year are always open
Classification of transactions according to the date - Yes, but with the possibility of choosing a different period Mandatory
Ability to modify, reverse and delete accounts receivable and accounts payable entries Before transferring to the general ledger only Before transferring to the general ledger only At all times (for a user who has this right)
Accounting effect of a transaction from an auxiliary (accounts receivable, accounts payable, inventory) After producing a report After producing a report Immediately
Prevent the use of control accounts (balance between the auxiliary and the general ledger) Optional Optional Mandatory

How to change the entry mode

  1. In the Acomba X configuration window, click on General Ledger in the left panel.
  2. In the Entry Mode group, select the appropriate entry mode.
  3. Acomba X will check your database to determine if it is ready for the change of entry mode.

Once you change the entry mode, if you decide that it is not suitable for your needs, you can choose another entry mode at any time.

The Per Date in Real Time entry mode can be used to modify, reverse and delete accounts receivable and accounts payable entries. You can authorize or deny access to this function for each user under the Rights Management tab.
