Find expenses recorded as Cash, M-PESA or Bank incorrectly.

An expense entered under the wrong account can create a difference in more than one balance.

Steps

  1. Open Expenses.
  2. Filter by the affected day.
  3. Review expense accounts.
  4. Look for the amount that matches the difference.
  5. Check the receipt or payment method.
  6. Edit the expense if the account is wrong.

Example

  • If a KSh 3,000 supplier payment was paid by M-PESA but entered as Cash, Cash may look too low and M-PESA may look too high.
