How to Enter Deposits that Did Not Post to Accounting

[Preacherterry]

When I first set up Powerchurch, I had entered 2 months of weekly deposits in the Contributions module before I had enough information to set up the Accounting module. They were posted as contributions but not posted to accounting. New weekly deposits are posting on through the system properly now but I need to go back and enter the old deposits on the accounting side only.

Would I just enter a Transaction for the total deposit amount and split it out by Tithes and Offerings, Benevolence, etc. as the Credit accounts and the Checking account it went into as the Debit account - or vice versa? I am really not very clear on debit vs. credit.

The easiest way to figure it out is to look at the Contribution Fund setup ... it lists that the Debit account is the BANK account, and the Credit account is the income account in which you want to show the income.

And the easiest way to figure out how much to put where is by running the Funds Report for each Sunday.
