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

Note: Proposals are not posted to the General Ledger. When you invoice the customer for items on the proposal, the transaction is posted to the General Ledger.

For assistance with debits and credits, see Journal Entry Distributions—Proposals.

To return to the Proposal window, select OK. Then, select Save or Print to record the modified transaction in the Sales Order Journal.
