When you select the Journal button in the Quotes window, Sage 50 displays the Accounting Behind the Screens window. The Quotes Journal tab displays the corresponding transaction's journal entry. You can modify the transaction by changing the account IDs of journal distributions listed.

Note: Quotes are not posted to the General Ledger. Once your customer accepts the quote, convert the quote to a sales order or sales invoice. When you invoice the customer or receive payment from the customer, the transaction is posted to the General Ledger.
