📌 Notes and Best Practices
This report is not synced with QuickBooks. It serves as a manual alternative for transferring financial activity.
Use the Category column to match journal lines with your QuickBooks chart of accounts.
Always review totals with your accountant to ensure journal integrity before entering data into financial records.
Revenue rows reflect product-level groupings, useful for mapping services and inventory categories directly to financial classifications.
