Account Codes

Every transaction needs to be coded or categorised into groups so the totals of each can be set out
clearly in the financial accounts of your organisation when calculating your profit and other reports.

 

iCashbook Dashboard
  1. This is your Account Codes area. This contains all the codes you will now select or had selected at your Set Up process. Use the Help tab - 'Help/Explain this Page' before setting your codes to get an understanding of what you need to do. Most people find this section the hardest part of using iCashbook or any other accounting software so don’t worry if it appears confusing at first. If you need help email iCashbook support or contact your accountant for assistance.

  2. Your codes are in 5 groups – Income, Expenses, Assets, Liabilities and Non-Business. Select the tab for the codes you wish to use

  3. The names of your codes and their descriptions

  4. Choose the codes you wish to use and those you don’t want to use. In the Untick Column, untick those codes you don’t wish to use. They will then drop down to the bottom of the page and are shaded out. To recover them again to use simply tick the box.

  5. You may add, delete or edit codes at any time as required

  6. After you have made your selection or changes click the Sort Codes box to resort everything so they appear in code no order.
