💡 A general ledger entry is an accounting record that reflects the impact of a business transaction on the company’s chart of accounts (i.e., general ledger). You enter a general ledger entry manually when you want to record a transaction that was not created automatically (e.g., payroll, interest liability, motor vehicle tax accounting).

📌 The liability and expense accounts for the motor vehicle tax have been added to databases created on or after 01/01/2025.

If you are using an older base, please use the following accounts to record the motor vehicle tax:

  • 2386 (Cr) Other taxes (activate the account in the chart of accounts if necessary)

  • 4394 (Dr) Other operating expenses
