From time to time there is a need to record a miscellaneous debit/credit for the occasions when there is an entry on the bank statement but not in HiRUM, or vice versa. This is basically a journal entry and should be actioned and rectified as quickly as possible. When this has been actioned it is necessary to record the opposing entry in the miscellaneous debits/credits.
These entries can be recorded when going through the End of Month Wizard in our Trust Accounting software, or by clicking on the banking register and clicking on the debits/credits icon
Click insert and type in the date of the entry, give a description, a unique reference number and the amount whether it is a miscellaneous debit or credit, see below:
Once the entry has been actioned, you will need to apply the same reference number to the opposing entry. By doing this you will be able to run a Debits/Credits Difference report which will now only outline any unresolved entries. Please note that although these have been actioned they will still always appear on the Miscellaneous Debits/Credits report along with their reference number.
