Hi

I am currently applying for bookkeeping jobs at a higher level than I am at the moment(accounts administrator) and I am being asked if I can do to Trial Balance. I am using Sage accounts and am wanting clarification of what this actually means. I am presumming that it is printing a trial balance from sage and then doing some reconcilliations to prove the balance sheet items but I'm not totally sure which accounts need to be reconcilled and the correct way to go about it. Can anyone out there offer advice please?

Thanks

Gail

Hi Gail

Bookkeeping to Trial Balance is doing all the basic ledger entries so that a trial balance can be produced.

This involves being able to enter up Sales, Purchases, bank cash tranactions etc etc.

Producing the accounts and doing the control accounts is deemed as post TB work.

I hope this clarifies.

Kind regards
Stuart

Thanks Stuart

So if I am entering all the ledger transactions through Sage do I just then print the trial balance report out on sage?
