[GNC] General Ledger

[Adrien Monteleone]

In that sense, GnuCash *is* the General Ledger.

There is a General Journal, which contains all transactions. (most recent 30 days visible by default)

There is each individual account containing opening balances and all subsequent transactions. (closing entries are not required by GnuCash, but are an option)

The Accounts tab can show an overview of the balance (current and YTD pr period to date) of every account, and is collapsable, expandable, and you can re-order it.

You can also run reports to show you anything else you need.

Does that help?

Regards,
Adrien
